 As
Internet traffic continues to grow at exponential rates worldwide, Internet
services providers (ISP's) everywhere are faced with the challenge of keeping up
with demand for network bandwidth and developing creative solutions for
squeezing more use out of existing bandwidth.
Satellite communication has the unique ability to deliver
bandwidth exactly where and when it is needed, irrespective of geography and
local infrastructure. It is therefore becoming the natural high speed transport
medium for a wide range of IP and multimedia applications the world over,
whether for consumer or business applications - and at speeds of 2Mbit/s per
user for Internet access and at up to 40Mbit/s per transponder for services such
as data broadcasting.
FANCOM offers a
full range of Internet over Satellite products for the most different needs.

Internet
via Satellite: Key Benefits
|
|
|
Satellite services are usually activated much more quickly than terrestrial
fibre. An antenna, modem and satellite circuit can be provisioned in a few weeks
rather than the months it might take for a traditional fibre installation. As a
network grows, additional capacity can be obtained in just as short a time.
Better Network Performance
Satellite connections enhance network performance by linking directly to an
Internet backbone, bypassing congested terrestrial lines and numerous router
hops. In addition, dedicated space segment, local loop circuits and ports into a
major Internet backbone mean ISP's do not share infrastructure, another reason
for slow or degraded connections over the traditional fiber line.
Lower Network Costs
The broadcast nature of satellites allows for the simultaneous delivery of
information to wide geographic areas without regard to terrestrial
infrastructure or geographic barriers. This translates into a pricing structure
that is distance insensitive, keeping costs down for international ISP's. In
addition, satellite capacity is easily matched to actual traffic patterns,
meaning customers pay only for what they need.
Internet on the Move
So as long as you stay within our extensive satellite footprint you can connect
anywhere anytime. Invaluable for mobile units in remote areas or even if you
just want to stay in touch whilst on holiday.
Scaleable Bandwidth
The service offers immediate capacity and rapid deployment,
with dedicated resources and scaleable bandwidth options.

Frequently
Asked Questions (FAQ)
|
|
|
|
What is the difference
between the IP-Access and IP-Connect Services?
IP-Access provides a Fast Internet Access Service on a shared basis, with
three different data rates up to 2048 kbps downstream and up to 512 kbps
upstream. IP-Connect is a service with a dedicated (i.e. non-shared)data
rate from 64 kbs to 8 Mbps allocated exclusively to one customer.
What are the advantages
of 2way2sat IP Access compared to terrestrial Internet services?
IP Access offers a broadband Internet service which is completely
independent from local telco companies. The persuasive bandwidth is
comparable and exceeds the performance of DSL and cable modems.
The always-on functionality and the fair-use flat rate are other important
features.
What can I understand by
"Fair-Use Flat Rate"?
The concept of "Fair-Use Flat Rate" applies to the IP-Access
service: The subscription to the service is based on a monthly fee rather
than on invoicing for the traffic on a volume basis. However, in order to
guarantee a fair access for everybody in the user community sharing a
common channel (one or more satellite transponders), excessive consumption
(e.g. streaming media or file sharing on a peer-to-peer network for many
hours) is not allowed. In case of excessive upload or download volume, the
data rate will be temporarily limited and the user will downgraded on the
priority level.
What are possible
applications for the IP-Connect service?
IP-Connect can be used in principle for all applications which are based
on IP connectivity, including: Internet access, corporate network
infrastructure (WAN, VPN), digital video streaming (DVB), distance
education, videoconferencing, voice over IP (VoIP).
Can I use 2way2sat to
implement Voice over IP (VoIP)?
2way2sat offers the ability to implement VoIP. However, due to the long
satellite path, there is an important round loop delay of typically 1.5
seconds. This needs a telephone conversation rather to be simplex, i.e.
only one person speaks at a time. Nevertheless, VoIP based on 2way2sat can
be an attractive alternative in geographical regions with non-existing or
poor telephone infrastructure.
How do I connect a PC or
a Local Area Network (LAN) to the 2way2sat terminal?
The indoor unit of the terminal provides a 10/100 Mps Ethernet Interface
which allows you to directly connect a single computer (via a crossed
Ethernet cable) as well as a network hub, switch, router or proxy server.
Can I connect the
2way2sat terminal to a wireless LAN (W-LAN) network?
Yes, trough the Ethernet interface it is possible to connect directly a
wireless access point or wireless bridge. No access PC or workstation is
needed.
How many IP addresses do
you provide with each system?
In addition to the IP address of the terminal, as an option up to 13
private (static) IP addresses can be provided per station. By attributing
these IP addresses to individual PCs it is possible to set-up a small
Local Area Network (LAN) without the need of a router.
Do you provide public IP
addresses?
For applications based on the fast Internet access service (IP Access)
public addresses are generally not needed. For special applications which
would need a public IP address, such an address will be provided at cost.
Can I use my existing
RIPE IP Addresses for the service?
As an option, an IP-Connect customer can use the existing RIPE
IP-Addresses for the 2way2sat service. The addresses are integrated into
the system at cost.
Is Linux possible as
primary Operating System?
The 2way2sat terminal is an independent station, with no PC needed for
operation. Thus the operation system of the computers connected to the LAN
is irrelevant, as long as it supports the Internet Protocol (IP). This is
the case of all modern operating systems, including Linux and MAC OS.
Who can install the
system?
The terminal has to be installed by a certified Eutelsat installer. Indeed
special skills for installing and commissioning are needed, which go well
beyond the installation of a satellite reception-only system. Fancom will
advise on all installation requirements
Can I become an Eutelsat
installer?
Professionals and resellers successfully completing a one-day seminar can
become a certified Eutelsat installer. Prior experience in installing VSAT
equipment is highly useful, but not a pre-requisite.
Who provides support for
2way2sat?
FANCOM provides free e-mail support for all customers. If needed,
telephone and exceptionally on-site support is offered at cost.
