Swe-Dish Suitcase Gets iPSTAR Certificate

 

STOCKHOLM, Sweden, Nov. 23, 2005/Satnews Daily/ — The Swe-Dish Suitcase has been awarded an iPSTAR test certificate, simplifying its usage in Asia for small Ku-band satellite terminals.

 

Swe-Dish said the small mobile broadband satellite terminal is one of the first to receive such a certificate.

The use of Ku-band transmission in South East Asia is increasing. Swe-Dish has recently commissioned several VSAT networks with mobile remote satellite terminals using the IPT Suitcase in the region. Typical users are governmental organizations, using satellite communication for disaster relief or defense applications, as well as broadcasters using the equipment in breaking news and coverage of major events.

The iPSTAR satellite, operated by Shin Satellite PLC, is a new generation of IP based satellites offering a broadband Internet/multimedia platform. iPSTAR delivers bandwidth on demand. This allows efficient use of bandwidth, making it ideal for broadband access to private companies and governmental organizations. iPSTAR is able to provide secure and efficient high-speed virtual private network (VPN) to organizations with multiple remote branches over a public network. Organizations are able to easily set up Intranet networks for various data, voice and video applications.

Lars Jehrlander, CEO of Swe-Dish, said the certificate from iPSTAR strengthen the company’s market position in Thailand and also opens up for new markets in Asia.


The Swe-Dish Suitcase has previously been awarded type approvals from Intelsat (IA097AA0), Eutelsat (EA-V042), Europe*Star (ES-ME-39), Hispasat and has also received a FCC license.
