How Starlink is Transforming Vans into Smart Mobile Offices

In 2024, a new update to SpaceX's Starlink satellite internet came out. It is called the Starlink Gen 3.

At Next Gen Vans, we are able to integrate the Gen 3 into a Sprinter cargo van and modify it to 12v, reducing the energy consumption 250%.

What this means, is that you have built in Starlink internet at incredibly high speeds, full coverage, no lag, and on demand. The little energy consumption means guilt-free usage, and a world of Bluetooth capabilities.

Whether the custom mobile unit is for nonprofits, outreach programs, events, clinics, animal transportation, command centers, or health and wellness services, one thing is clear—Starlink is a game-changer for every type of mobile business we serve.

Seamless Connectivity in a Mobile Office

Before Starlink, mobile businesses had to rely on spotty cellular networks or cumbersome satellite systems with slow speeds and unpredictable coverage. Starlink changes the game by offering:

• Simple Start & Stop Service: Need to pause your service between projects? With Starlink, you can activate or deactivate your connection with just a press of a button—no need to wait on hold with customer service.

  
  

• Global Coverage: Whether you’re operating a mobile clinic in a rural community, running an outreach program in underserved areas, or coordinating an event in the middle of nowhere, Starlink provides high-speed internet access anywhere.

• Low Latency, High-Speed Performance: Unlike traditional satellite internet, Starlink’s low-earth orbit satellites deliver blazing-fast speeds (up to 200 Mbps) with minimal lag—perfect for video calls, data transfers, telehealth sessions, and real-time communication.

Transforming Vans into Smart Mobile Offices

With Starlink integrated into a Next Gen Van, your vehicle becomes more than just a mobile workspace—it becomes a Smart Van. Starlink activates Bluetooth capabilities that allow you to:

• Remotely Monitor & Control: Use an app to check cameras, battery levels, and interior temperature from anywhere, giving you full control even when you're not inside the van.

• Real-Time Alerts: Receive instant notifications for security breaches, power issues, or temperature fluctuations—critical for industries like healthcare or animal transportation.

• Seamless Fleet Management: For organizations with multiple vans, you can monitor all units remotely, ensuring consistent performance and safety across your entire fleet.

The impact of reliable, high-speed internet is profound, especially for the businesses we build vans for at Next Gen Vans:
