Overview

No one understands the complexities of a converged network more than today's telecommunications carriers. New voice and data applications continue to fuel the demand for greater bandwidth. And as the global marketplace continues to expand, requirements for connectivity go beyond the wired world. Network operators need to be able to provide a reliable, efficient and cost effective solution. iDirect's hubs and routers power some of the world's most powerful satellite networks, providing pure end to end IP networking capabilities. Whether it's VoIP, streaming media, internet access, data backup or all of the above, iDirect's unique technology makes it one of the most efficient satellite broadband technologies available today. Discover what making your network an iDirect network can do for you.

GSM Backhaul

The need for global cellular communication is rapidly increasing as nations industrialize and expand, yet millions of people throughout the world have limited or no access to cellular services. Bringing communications to remote areas of the world presents an opportunity to expand cellular networks and to acquire millions of new customers. The problem lies in the cost of deploying remote cellular systems where limited terrestrial infrastructure exists. Satellite is an obvious means of overcoming geographic constraints; however SCPC or other dedicated satellite links are not cost effective means of backhauling cellular traffic due to the calling patterns of users concentrated to certain hours. iDirect's unique IP based solution allows carriers to share network capacity across multiple locations reducing bandwidth costs and expanding their coverage to regions where it was previously unprofitable.
