This service launch represents the next stage of the cooperation agreement signed several months ago to provide customers across the Asia-Pacific region with an integrated solution comprising Gilat’s SkyEdge II-c VSAT satellite ground equipment and Thaicom4’s (IPSTAR) high throughput satellite (HTS). To unveil the combined offering, Gilat and THAICOM will be conducting seminars in Jakarta, Indonesia in February, where they will demonstrate how the service greatly improves Internet connectivity in the region.

 

“In only a very short time, we’ve been able to implement this new service, which will provide our customers with faster satellite Internet connectivity than they’ve ever experienced before,”  said Ms. Suphajee Suthumpun, Chairman of the Executive Committee and CEO of THAICOM. “We look forward to replicating the success we’ve achieved collaborating with Gilat in previous ventures, such as the National Broadband Network (NBN) project in Australia.“
