SkyVision Global Networks Ltd., one of the leading global provider of IP connectivity over satellite and fibre optic networks throughout Africa – has announced the launch of its new iDirect VSAT HUB service for South Africa.
This offering will be operated by SkyVision Networks South Africa (Pty)Ltd., SkyVision Global Network’s local subsidiary. The establishment of SkyVision Networks South Africa (pty) Ltd. and the teleport and local VSAT HUB it operates is the latest strategic move SkyVision has taken in order to expand its African footprint. This offering will enable the company to respond to Africa’s need for high quality communication services over fibre, wireless and satellite.
The new iDirect HUB in Johannesburg supports the latest iDX 3.1 iDirect release, and takes full advantage of the Amos 5 satellite with its coverage of southern and sub-Saharan Africa. This will allow SkyVision to offer cost effective and highly reliable VSAT services for South African companies and organizations.
