Sevis
Systems
delivers
optimised 3G/LTE
backhaul
over
Eutelsat’s
KA-SAT
satellite
9 April 2015
Sevis
Systems,
Inc. has
successfully
validated
its highly
effective
and flexible
platform for
backhaul
services on
the KA-SAT
satellite
operated by
Eutelsat
Communications
(NYSE
Euronext
Paris: ETL).
The new
solution
offers a
more
affordable
and
optimised
satellite
backhaul
service to
specialised
satellite
service
providers
delivering
end-to-end
backhaul
bandwidth to
Mobile
Network
Operators
(MNOs).
Sevis and
Eutelsat are
now offering
the solution
across
KA-SAT’s
entire
footprint of
Europe,
North Africa
and the
Middle East.
These new
services are
ideal for
delivering
3G and LTE
to remote or
rural
locations
without
access to
terrestrial
backhaul.
The ability
for KA-SAT
to provide
backhaul
connectivity
between a
core network
and the
access
infrastructure
at a remote
site is
suitable for
mobile
operators
and
Professional
Mobile Radio
(PMR) for
emergency
services and
civil
defence. The
Sevis
integrated
solution
also allows
service
providers to
develop and
deliver
innovative
backhaul
services
defined by
software.
For example,
TCP
acceleration,
data traffic
offload and
overflow can
leverage
Sevis´
multi-layer
optimisation
algorithms
to
efficiently
route
traffic and
integrate
satellite
and
terrestrial
backhaul.
With an
advanced
feature set
and based on
Sevis´
scalable
7000-Series
hardware
platform
designed for
IP high
throughput
backhaul
environments,
Eutelsat´s
partners and
users can
now leverage
Sevis´
industry-leading
optimisation
technology
delivering
new levels
of savings,
scalability
and
flexibility.
In
conjunction
with
Eutelsat´s
KA-SAT high
throughput
network,
satellite
service
providers
and MNOs can
realise high
ROI savings
in 3G
backhaul
operating
costs while
establishing
a seamless
migration
path to LTE
backhaul,
traffic
offload and
overflow.
Tim Peyla,
VP Business
Development
at Sevis
Systems,
said, “Our
highly
scalable
optimisers,
purposely
built for
High
Throughput
Satellite,
together
with our
software-defined
service
features,
enable
service
providers to
efficiently
deliver
current and
future
backhaul
services.
When
combined
with the
power and
coverage of
Eutelsat’s
KA-SAT, the
result is a
backhaul
solution
that
achieves the
lowest
possible
cost to
deliver
carrier-class
backhaul
services
over
satellite.”
“Sevis
Systems has
a long and
rich history
of
developing
and
marketing
optimised
telecom
solutions,
both
hardware and
software, to
tier one
telecom
operators
worldwide,”
said
Philippe
Llau, B2B
Commercial
Director
at Eutelsat
Broadband. “This
latest
solution
will
dramatically
decrease the
total cost
of ownership
for
satellite
service
providers
and mobile
operators
and further
extends the
scope of the
professional
communication
services
that can be
delivered
over
KA-SAT.”
