KVH to Supply Vroon Fleet With a Comprehensive Marine SATCOM
   Solution That Includes TracPhone Systems, Broadband Airtime,
   CommBox Network Management Tools, Crew Calling, and GSM Cell
                       Phone Service at Sea

MIDDLETOWN, R.I., March 4, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- KVH Industries,
Inc., (Nasdaq:KVHI) today announced that Netherlands-based Vroon has
chosen the KVH TracPhone(R) V7 and its mini-VSAT Broadband(SM) network
as the new satellite communication solution for the more than 125
in-house managed vessels in its fleet. The selection follows a
competition involving 22 different satellite communication providers
and results in a multi-year mini-VSAT Broadband service contract
covering Vroon's vessels and its global operations.

Explaining the choice of KVH, Rob Frenks, Vroon's group ICT manager,
says, "In today's competitive shipping market, our ships, charterers,
and fleet managers require secure and reliable IT networks to support
critical business processes. It is also equally important to improve
crew welfare in order to attract and retain skilled seafarers. However,
we realized that our existing, diverse satellite communication
solutions will not meet our future business requirements. By choosing
KVH, we are gaining an affordable, comprehensive solution that brings
together proven hardware, a global network, and fully integrated
network management and crew welfare solutions that will support our
needs for years to come."

Vroon vessels will be equipped with the award-winning 60 cm TracPhone
V7 antenna system, mini-VSAT Broadband service, and the KVH CommBox(TM)
Ship/Shore Network Manager. CommBox provides a suite of network
management tools ranging from web compression and acceleration and
least cost routing among multiple communication services to pre-paid
Internet access and remote access for Vroon's shore-based IT personnel.

Vroon crews as well as crews from contractors and third-party companies
will also be able to take advantage of KVH's pre-paid crew calling
system and, depending on the vessels' activities, a GSM picocell system
that will enable those on board to make calls via their mobile or
smartphone from virtually anywhere within the mini-VSAT Broadband
coverage area. Technical service needs will be provided by KVH's
exclusive GlobalCare Premium Support Program.

"The changes to maritime satellite communications over the last several
years are dramatic as commercial fleets like Vroon move from basic
voice and low data rate applications to more demanding business
requirements that need affordable, reliable broadband solutions,"
observes Martin Kits van Heyningen, KVH's chief executive officer. "We
designed mini-VSAT Broadband to offer a unique end-to-end solution that
meets these rapidly expanding communication needs. Working closely with
our Dutch distributor, SAM Electronics Netherlands BV, we presented
this comprehensive solution to Vroon. We are proud to be Vroon's choice
for its next-generation satellite communication service and look
forward to a long and fruitful collaboration."

The mini-VSAT Broadband network was designed from the ground up to be
the first next-generation maritime satellite communications solution.
The global spread spectrum satellite network, built with ViaSat's
patented ArcLight(R) technology, offers more affordable airtime, voice
service and Internet access as fast as 512 Kbps (ship to shore) and 2
Mbps (shore to ship). More than 1,000 TracPhone V7 systems have been
shipped in the three years since the product's introduction, making the
mini-VSAT Broadband network the fastest growing maritime VSAT solution.
