Gilat Satcom, an Israeli-based communication provider offering satellite and fibre-based connectivity services in Africa, Asia and the Middle East, has deployed Newtec technology to fully optimise its satellite links for backhauling in Africa on Measat\u2019s Africasat 1, 46\u00b0 East.
\n
\nGilat Satcom upgraded their existing IP trunking network from DVB-S2 CCM\/VCM operation to an adaptive ACM environment seamlessly integrating Newtec\u2019s FlexACM\u00ae technology (www.newtec.eu\/FlexACM). For Gilat Satcom and its customers this technology ensures a more robust link at the highest availability and the most efficient use of the bandwidth. <\/p>\n
\u201cGilat Satcom is committed to providing its customers with the latest technology at affordable prices,\u201d said Ofer Doron, VP of Engineering and Operations of Gilat Satcom. \u201cDeploying Newtec\u2019s FlexACM technology enables us to maximise the throughput of the existing satellite link at all times whilst keeping a robust service in all conditions.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n This proven solution provides the highest throughput in a given leased space capacity to get the most out of this limited resource but being still flexible in matching any possible business model. <\/p>\n \u201cNewtec\u2019s technology, which is being used in this project, boosts the data throughput in Gilat Satcom\u2019s networks,\u201d said Serge Van Herck, CEO of Newtec. \u201cWe are continuously helping our customers to optimise their IP Trunking and IP Backbone network services over satellite and have therefore been able to demonstrate an impressive track record of installations worldwide in Ku-, Ka-, C-band on both geostationary and inclined orbit satellites. We are proud that Gilat Satcom continues to trust Newtec to help them further optimize their transmission services towards their customers.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n Newtec\u2019s FlexACM solution implemented by Gilat Satcom combines a range of different technologies. These include Newtec\u2019s Cross-Layer-Optimization\u2122 (www.newtec.eu\/cross-layer-optimizationtm) and Clean Channel Technology\u2122 (CCT, www.newtec.eu\/clean-channel-technology). <\/p>\n Through Cross-Layer-Optimization the satellite modulation equipment is in continuous interaction with Newtec\u2019s acceleration, compression, bandwidth management and IP shaping technology. As soon as the satellite link condition changes the link is automatically optimised using Quality-of-Service (QoS) and traffic priority settings. All of this is done without losing any data or connectivity. Cross-Layer-Optimization is unique on the market as it is shaping both the IP and the RF part of the network. <\/p>\n Clean Channel Technology further improves satellite efficiency by up to 15 % compared to the current DVB-S2 standard for IP trunking, backhauling and government networks but also broadcast contribution. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
