iDirect announced that satellite communications solution provider Geolink Satellite Services , part of CETel Group, has upgraded its Evolution-based network. The company will also deploy iDirect's X7 remotes to improve speed and performance for customers in the oil and gas, mining and maritime industries. iDirect is a world leader in satellite-based IP communications technology.

In the satellite communications industry, success is increasingly predicated on the ability to deliver higher throughput services and greater cost-efficiency. Geolink Satellite Services believes the upgrade will help it penetrate much deeper into core markets, while also offering a solution for local ISP and terrestrial operators looking for affordable backup or disaster recovery services.
