GCCIT has proven its capacity to deliver fully managed, end-to-end satellite solutions in countries where satellite technology is the best communication alternative, supporting applications such as Citrix, E-mail, Voice, Video, Internet access and corporate software solutions such as SAP and Oracle.

GCCIT has gained extensive knowledge and experience in addressing the communications challenges of diverse industries, and has applied that experience towards the development of a wide range of satellite communications solutions specifically designed for each vertical market.

This 100% dedicated service bandwidth (CIR) allows to set-up a uniform Satellite Network across countries, if required. Target groups include Corporations, Administrations, NGOs and ISPs. IP Connect is the first choice for companies seeking to set up a satellite based corporate network. Application specific Quality of Service (QoS) is tailor-made according to the exact requirements of the customer. The IP-Connect network does not need to have a link to the public Internet, which greatly enhances network security.

Dedicated and shared bandwidth allow different service classes, targeted at diverse user groups:

Shared Two way internet via satellite

The maximum data rate and the contention ratio (sharing factor) specify largely the performance of the service. Service packages include IP-Share Team, Division and Corporate. While standard services grades enable fast Internet access and always-on functionality, the higher end IP-Share Service packages support Voice-over-IP (VoIP) and Virtual Private Network (VPN) applications. IP-Share allows companies to connect single or several remote sites with headquarters. It is also the ideal for Cyber Cafés which want to increase their stream of revenues by adding VoIP services to their Internet Access offer.

The iDirect VNO Solution

Virtual Network Operators (VNOs) rent network capacity from a host network operator (HNO). Capacity is physically isolated from the rest of the network, and can be managed to any specifications the VNO requires, including using private IP addresses. This allows a VNO to offer highly competitive broadband IP service anywhere, without a significant upfront investment. In addition to low initial cost, as a virtual network operator you will be able to:

· Commission and control your own remote sites

· Deliver end users broadband speeds of up to 18 Mbps

· Insure your network traffic is 100% physically separate from anyone else’s

· Provide custom QoS service levels

· Support applications like VoIP, video and private networks

· Pay only for the capacity you need

· Easily expand your service capacity as you build customer demand

Virtual networks offer all the opportunity of the satellite industry without assuming the risk, or the upfront investment of deploying a separate network. And, since a VNO can start with as little as a single line card, they have the ability to deploy exactly the network bandwidth for their initial business case, with the flexibility to expand as much as the markets demand. The VNO model allows new operators to develop niche opportunities worldwide, and provides them with state of the art network management tools, security and functionality to deliver the applications customers need.
