Thuraya Telecommunications, the United Arab Emirates based satellite operator has expanded its distribution chain in Europe, WAM news agency reported Saturday.
The UK-based satellite communications provider Applied Satellite Technology (AST) will now distribute Thuraya's broadband service 'ThurayaIP' and other solutions based on it in Europe and other global markets.
ThurayaIP is a small broadband solution with transmission speed of up to 444 Kbps.
It was the first satellite broadband terminal to achieve video streaming speeds of up to 384 Kbps.
'ThurayaIP, with its portable size, speed and versatility, is designed to be the most competitive high-speed offering in the mobile satellite broadband market. As such, it is anticipated to see a great demand in Europe where the operations of several vertical markets rely heavily on Internet-based communications,' said Thuraya's Chief Executive Officer Yousuf Al Sayed.
