SES AMERICOM-NEW SKIES has announced that IoGlobal has signed a multiyear agreement to create a new DVB IP platform on the NSS-11 satellite to keep NATO troops in Afghanistan connected with friends and family back home. New Asia 9 platform on the China beam of SES AMERICOM-NEW SKIES’ NSS-11 satellite provides more than 70 Mbps of satellite-delivered streaming voice, data and video services to soldiers stationed in and around Kabul, Afghanistan.

The solution expands on the growing, long-term relationship between IoGlobal and SES AMERICOM-NEW SKIES across three satellites and delivers a broad offering of mission-critical satellite-based services ranging from broadband to video streaming into the South Asian region.

“This latest agreement between IoGlobal and SES AMERICOM-NEW SKIES reinforces our service commitment to the Middle East and regions around the world, as the two companies deliver multiple SCPC, VSAT and DVB service platforms over our NSS-703, NSS-6, and NSS-11 spacecraft,” said Deepak Mathur, Vice President of South Asia and the Middle East for SES AMERICOM-NEW SKIES.

Brian: I need a price qoute to purchase the iDirect Series 7000 Satellite Router and associated equipment. We plan on servicing two locations on base. The speed we are interested in is the 4096/768 10:1 service access for both locations. We would also like a qoute for 1:1 service access at each location. We would need wireless access points to service a max of 400 users at one time. Please provide a total price qoute for equipment and monthly charges.
Mark: This is an inquiry into your satellite internet systems. I am with a US army unit deploying to Afghanistan to a new base with limited internet access and I am investigating different options to supply about 25 individuals with internet access. I am wondering what systems you have to offer us and for how much. Beyond the modem what other hardware would we need to purchase to get the 25 people hooked up? A switch or public access device for a WLAN? Or does your hardware include some of these functions? As much detail as possible would be appreciated.
