VSAT User’s access Maximum Capacity Performance and Value


October 19th, 2009 – Today at the GITEX conference in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, XipLink, the leader in wireless optimisation technology, announced that DigitalSkys has commissioned an additional high value premium managed service offering, utilising XipLink’s core optimisation technology, to typically double throughput for its customers across the Middle East, African and Asian markets that they serve.

DigitalSkys, a ’last-mile’ wireless communications provider utilising current state of the art satellite-based VSAT technology, GSM, VoIP, IP-PBX and Wireless PBX, Visual Intelligence and Wi-Fi technologies, has already begun rolling out the high value premium managed service offering to initial customers in the Middle East, African and Asian sub-continents. Utilising the dual-redundant XipLink XA-30K optimisation appliance platform, DigitalSkys is able to provide a full STM-1 capacity of optimised traffic across multiple satellites and networks into many different theatres and markets.

“The XipLink optimisation technology will allow DigitalSkys to offer our customer remote sites with the latest in data compression, TCP acceleration techniques, HTTP pre-fetching algorithms, as well as local caching and IPSec features as supported options.” said Gavin Wehlburg, Director of DigitalSkys. Our customers are demanding better optimisation, throughput and performance from their links with price performance savings. The XipLink range provides our customers with security, performance and peace of mind, while ensuring that their exact site needs can be matched with an appropriate range of devices to deliver performance with a demonstrated return on investment. We take pride in the quality of our networks and the investments we make in our Teleport infrastructures and their flexibility. The XipLink XA-30 redundantly configured gateways at the Teleport meet our exacting requirements reported Gavin, and XipLink understand our industry, operational needs, and how to work with us in every sense, as supporting partners, to achieve success.“ XipLink’s scalable optimisation solutions are the foundation of this new managed service offering, delivering the most efficient capacity utilisation that leads to increased margins and service revenues. “This service will help further differentiate our already well known reliable and high performing quality networks and services.”

XipLink’s XA-Series of wireless optimisers include a range of industrial computing appliances scaling from 2 Mbps and 50 connections to very high performance systems running at 155 Mbps and 30,000 simultaneous connections for the largest of installations.

“Demand for our products is rapidly increasing and this important partnership means even more customers will benefit from our leading optimisation technology”, says Peter Slade, Managing Director of EMEA Sales for XipLink. “We are excited by the endorsement this partnership will bring, as well as the service enhancement it will bring to DigitalSkys vast customer base in the Middle East, African and Asian continents.”
