ATCONTACT VSAT Services
ATCONTACT’s iDirect broadband IP VSAT network system is regarded as one of the most efficient satellite communications systems in the market. Bandwidth efficiencies on the ATCONTACT iDirect system are both at the satellite communications and IP communications level. High bandwidth efficiency ensures lower costs of operations for a service provider or operator. Bandwidth efficiency of any technology should not compromise application performance and at the same time should be cost-effective. In addition to bandwidth efficiency, the ATCONTACT iDirect system provides other efficiencies such as IP efficiency, network design, and multiple products within one hub, power, space, management, and logistics.
ATCONTACT provides services on Galaxy XR and Satmex 5, coverage includes Alaska, Lower 48, Mexico, Central and South America, the Caribbean. We offer SOHO, Enterprise and ISP levels of service. We are able to provide support for VOIP, video conferencing and other applications that require bandwidth on a consistent basis and require a guaranteed QOS.
Why is Satellite Better?
- Rapid Deployment: Satellite networks can be rolled out quickly to locations where terrestrial alternatives are not available, unreliable or are too expensive
- Better Network Performance: Satellite connections enhance performance by linking directly to the Internet backbone, bypassing congested terrestrial lines and numerous router hops.
- Lower Network Costs: Satellites allow simultaneous information delivery to wide geographic areas without regard to terrestrial infrastructure or geographic barriers. This results in a pricing structure that is distance insensitive. In addition, satellite capacity is easily matched to actual traffic patterns, meaning ISP’s or companies pay only for what they need.
- Scalable: Satellite technology provides a convenient environment for accommodating network and bandwidth expansion.
- Flexible: Satellite's inherent strength as a broadcast medium makes it well suited for the distribution of bandwidth-intensive information to large numbers of remote locations
