12/04/09 - Globecomm Commences X-Band Services Offering
|
HAUPPAUGE, N.Y. - Globecomm Systems Inc. (NASDAQ: GCOM), a leading global provider of satellite-based communications infrastructure solutions and services, announced the introduction of an operational commercial X-band service offering to US Military and Coalition Forces operating in Southwest Asia, the Middle East, and Africa. Globecomm’s end-to-end X-band offering combines licensed teleport assets, a global fiber network, commercial X-band space segment, a redundant iDirect Internet Protocol (IP) services platform, and a wide range of satellite terminal equipment options. This service provisioning will support the demand for increased US Military and Coalition Forces’ bandwidth requirements in an IP-centric fashion.
This commercial X-band service offering makes use of high power satellites that can support the deployment of small aperture antennas including man-portable units in regions of the world that have very high usage demands and are in critical need of additional bandwidth options.
Along with its global service offering, Globecomm provides a variety of X-band satellite terminal hardware ranging from the new TomCat ManPack to 0.77m and 1.2m Auto-Explorer self-aligning terminals up to 3.0m single-carrier and 4.0m multi-carrier, fixed hub earth stations.
Globecomm’s global fiber network, with redundant and diverse connectivity to a European teleport, connects Globecomm’s service to major European points of presence, as well as to Globecomm’s Hauppauge, New York facility node, providing robust IP connectivity, US-based voice termination services and US or European IP addresses.
Globecomm’s experience with the US DoD and other international organizations provides it with a unique skill set that was used to create this solution. Globecomm provides the complete solution so the deployed unit in the field has one Network Operation Center to call to obtain assistance with their service between their computers to the hand off point at the Governments network.
