Satcom Direct has announced that it is now authorized by
Inmarsat’s Global Government Business Unit to provision and resell Inmarsat’s
Ka-band Global Xpress (GX) service to global government customers for use in
military, head-of-state and other government operations.
Satcom Direct (SD) has been appointed a Value Added
Reseller (VAR) for Inmarsat’s GX mobile global broadband satellite network. GX delivers secure, end-to-end wideband
connectivity that enables seamless airborne, naval and land operations. During
MEBAA 2016 SD will be explaining to delegates why this is an ideal tool for
those needing maximum connectivity in conjunction with maximum mobility. GX is
a perfect fit for military and head-of-state communications needs.
"SD is honored to represent Inmarsat and to showcase
GX and its benefits to the government market," said David Greenhill,
Satcom Direct president. "The high performance of the GX network allows us
to deliver tailored solutions which meet complex government, military and VVIP
requirements for secure and reliable connectivity."
Inmarsat Global Government President, Andy Start, said:
“We are very excited to add Satcom Direct to our stable of industry-leading
companies that provide expertise and service to our government customers with
Global Xpress capabilities. Satcom
Direct has a long and successful history in the aviation sector and we are keen
to work with them in the non-U.S. government sector.”
GX is the world’s first globally available Ka-band mobile
broadband satellite network, providing very high bandwidth services to
end-users on land, at sea and in the air, delivered through a resilient, secure
waveform that is optimised for mobility. It integrates seamlessly with
Inmarsat’s current L-band network
SD already is a VAR for the U.S. Government business
unit, as well as Jet ConneX, the business aviation version of Inmarsat’s Global
Xpress service. SD was the first business aviation communication provider to
provision and validate its services over the network.
