ND SatCom recently introduced its latest technology platform at the IBC 2005. SkyVIP is purpose-built to serve the connectivity, traffic and quality demands of corporate and governmental customers as well as satellite service providers and operators, and to deliver to their end-customers all the capabilities of next generation mid-sized star IP topology environment.

The platform provides superior commercial opportunities through more efficient bandwidth usage, greater flexibility, reliability and performance than any other comparable product in the market. SkyVIP will be available from the end of September 2005.

The new SkyVIP star broadband platform provides easy-to-handle, plug-and-play, secure, reliable, fast and high performance IP connectivity.

Equipped with ND SatCom's unique Adaptive Networking technology, Adaptive TCP Acceleration and the Frame Plan Generator, SkyVIP is ND SatCom's state-of-the-art answer to the market's ever-evolving business communication requirements. Network control facilities and hub traffic redundancy features ensure constant network availability.

Thus, SkyVIP supports a fully-blown IP network with lowest capital expenditure in the market through its truly scalable, modular hub architecture. ND SatCom developed the most affordable, flexible, efficient and eye-catching IP hub and remote station within the industry.

Through the Adaptive Networking access software, remote stations get all available capacity after starting the transmission. A major gain in efficiency is that if no data is being transmitted, no space capacity is being occupied by the idle remote terminal. All traffic on all active remotes share the same space capacity.

SkyVIP supports a broad set of features enabling applications such as bottleneck-less corporate service for remote offices, cost-saving premium VoIP, LAN/WAN interconnection, data transfer and dynamic Internet access. Furthermore, an extended geographical coverage can be achieved by utilizing multiple satellites through one single hub.

"ND SatCom has put concentrated efforts into developing this future-proof technology platform for the benefit of its customers. We at ND SatCom believe that our proven expertise in providing state-of-the-art technologies in our high quality solutions will answer market demands for reliable, flexible and cost-conscious satellite applications." commented Dr. Gerhard Bommas, CTO at ND SatCom.
