Ground Control's BGAN Communication Backpacks
or "Manpacks" are lightweight solutions for hiking in phone and Internet communication into remote regions. These highly reinforced packs include everything required for creating a high-speed Internet hotspot (up to 100 feet) for any in-range device. The optional ightweight foldable solar panels make no-power locations no problem.

BGAN Backpack

Shown here is the Hughes 9201 BGAN terminal, which is the fastest BGAN terminal available. However, we now highly recommend using the latest Hughes 9202 BGAN terminal for the backpack because it is nearly as fast, but does not require an extra terminal adapter for phone. The 9202 also includes wireless (unlike the Explorer 300).
