Satlynx S.A. announces the signature of their agreement with France Telecom to provide two-way satellite-based services to France Telecom customers.
Satlynx was selected after successfully passing all the deployment stages of numerous tests in diverse French regions. Satlynx is now France Telecom¿s leading provider of satellite-based broadband technologies and network services.
With these solutions, Satlynx provides France Telecom¿s customers, located in areas that have not yet been addressed by the broadband revolution, with access to the Internet.
For FT¿s clients, municipalities, companies, professionals and SoHos, satellite represents a viable opportunity for the economic development of their region and for creating or safeguarding jobs.
The company offers corporations with remotely located branches and regional offices the opportunity to link-up to wide area networks. It also offers backup links for terrestrial connections, which open up new potential in terms of location and security.
The advantages of satellite-based broadband include fast and easy deployment and a consistent service level every time, everywhere, no matter how remote or mountainous the location.
Other positive sides of Satlynx' solutions to France Telecom include high availability and secure and confidential data exchange, mainly due to the specific infrastructure and the mechanisms implemented by Satlynx.
Paul Heinerscheid, President and CEO of Satlynx said: "Satlynx is proud to have been chosen by France Telecom to partner in the development of broadband access for its users, regardless of where they live or work."
"Furthermore, France Telecom's deployment of satellite-based two-way networks considerably increases the possibilities offered in particular to companies and municipalities in terms of Internet-based broadband services."
"It¿s a major means for their economic development and can help contribute to equitable territorial development," he added.
