Spacenet Inc. has increased the speed of its commercial grade Connexstar Performance Series service to include a 5 Mbps (mega bit per second) option, which now makes this among the fastest pre-packaged satellite communications solutions available. The service also comes with the industry's only Minimum Assured Speed.

Connexstar Performance Series is designed for mission critical environments that require simultaneous voice, video, and data communications via satellite. This product series is available exclusively for commercial and government organizations. To meet growing demand for business continuity communications, the new 5 Mbps service is available in full-time and part-time service plans. Such is ideal for hot stand-by and rapid fail-over requirements for healthcare organizations, financial institutions, big box retail stores, and government agencies. Most off-the-shelf satellite services available today are designed for consumer grade Internet traffic. They are not intended for mission critical applications and such value oriented services generally advertise a "best effort" top speed but offer no guarantees of network performance or actual user experience. Consumer grade services also tend to include strict fair access policies that may significantly reduce the connection speed if the user transmits data or files above a pre-set limit over a specified period of time. Spacenet's Connexstar Performance Series overcomes these concerns by offering a true commercial grade service complete with a Minimum Assured Speed guarantee, and no automatic performance penalties for exceeding fair access policy guidelines.
