Mena Telecom's Two-way Satellite Broadband service proves its worth
- Bahrain: Monday, March 24 - 2008 at 11:10
- PRESS RELEASE
Since the recent service interruptions caused by the damage to two undersea telecommunication cables, one off the coast of Alexandria in Egypt on January 31 and the other one off the coast of Qatar, demand for Mena Telecom's Two-way Satellite Broadband service has been growing substantially, not only in terms of customer numbers but also in usage and traffic.
Mr. Abdul Razak Jawahery, Executive Manager Kuwait Finance House - Bahrain (KFH), representing KFH as Vice Chairman and Managing Director of Mena Telecom said, "Access to the Internet is essential for our customers and they cannot afford to risk losing their service, even for the shortest period of time. As part of our leadership in innovation we are providing a service which is complementary to their existing facilities and our Two-way Satellite Broadband application provides a seamless back-up facility to ensure that they still have service, even when everything else has failed."
It has been five years since Mena Telecom made a successful entry into the regional telecommunications market, with the Two-way Satellite Broadband application marking the first of many award-winning and innovative services introduced.
Since its inception in 2003 as one of the first Satellite Access Service Providers in the Middle East, Mena Telecom has been a leader in deploying state-of-the-art technology to develop solutions to meet the telecommunication needs of its customers.
Mr. Jawahery continues, "This service handles data, voice, and video signals for private applications, therefore companies can have total control of their own communication system without being totally dependent on other providers.
Mena Telecom connects customers to its hub in Switzerland via PanAmSat10, which has a significant footprint over Middle East & North Africa; and offers different applications such as high-speed internet, flexible bandwidth, adjustable data rate and web driven transparent interfaces.
