IP Access International Enhances Global iDirect Satellite Network
June 25, 2012
iDirect announced that IP Access International, a global
satellite service provider, has upgraded its satellite-based
Internet, video, and voice services with iDirect's Evolution
platform. Through its upgrade to Evolution, and the purchase of
a Series 15100 Universal Satellite hub and line cards, IP Access
International can significantly improve bandwidth efficiency,
leading to a greater end-user experience by increasing the
overall capacity available for critical communications.
IP Access International offers high-bandwidth communications
connectivity for a range of applications, including emergency
management and disaster recovery, where dedicated and reliable
bandwidth is a must. Through Evolution, IP Access International
can provide emergency responders with a fixed or mobile
satellite solution that can be deployed in minutes and deliver
high-bandwidth connectivity as needed.
IP Access International utilizes iDirect's iDX 3.0 software
to run its Evolution network. With built-in DVB-S2/ACM
technology and advanced bandwidth management capabilities
through its Group Quality of Service features, iDX 3.0 provides
IP Access International with a highly efficient and reliable
satellite solution. Additionally, because iDX 3.0 integrates
both TDMA and SCPC connectivity on a single network, IP Access
International can offer a more efficient and affordable service
for customers who need SCPC connectivity by the day. This is
extremely useful for IP Access International's emergency
response and disaster management customers since it allows them
to turn on SCPC Return for temporary heavy-traffic conditions,
such as in the aftermath of a disaster when they need to get
communications back online quickly.
"For our customers, on-demand connectivity is critical. With
Evolution, we have improved the efficiency of our services,
enabling us to give end users the reliable bandwidth they need
when they need it most. Evolution also gives us more flexibility
in how we sell our services, particularly our dedicated SCPC
solutions, which is an important service for our emergency
management and disaster recovery customers." Alan Rich
President, IP Access International
