Network Description

Tampnet, operating in the United States of America, specifically serves the North America & Caribbean region with specialized connectivity solutions. Identified by Mobile Country Code (MCC) 311 and Mobile Network Code (MNC) 170, Tampnet distinguishes itself from more ubiquitous mobile networks like Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile by focusing on offshore and maritime communications. While those major players dominate the terrestrial mobile landscape with broad coverage and a variety of consumer-focused services, Tampnet carves a niche by providing reliable, high-capacity network access to oil rigs, ships, and other offshore installations.

Unlike traditional cellular networks reliant on land-based cell towers, Tampnet leverages a network of strategically positioned base stations, often situated on offshore platforms and vessels, utilizing satellite backhaul to provide robust connectivity. This specialized infrastructure allows them to provide services to areas where traditional mobile signals are weak or non-existent. Though not directly competing for standard consumer mobile subscriptions in the U.S. market like the aforementioned mega-networks, Tampnet fills a vital role in supporting the connectivity needs of critical industries operating in the Gulf of Mexico and other coastal regions, facilitating communication, data transfer, and remote monitoring for businesses and personnel working far from land.
