Satellite Communications Provider Satcom Direct Integrates Exinda Mobile Platform
Network control solutions provider Exinda announced Tuesday that Satcom Direct, a developer of satellite communications solutions for corporate and military aircraft, has selected the Exinda Mobile platform to be integrated into its first hardware product, the Satcom Direct Router (SDR). Acting as a Wi-Fi access point on an airplane, the SDR will utilize the Exinda Mobile platform to improve the consistency and response time of Internet applications, giving passengers an improved data user experience while on-board the aircraft.
"Executives, government officials and business professionals continue to spend a large amount of time in the air, so the need to constantly be connected is greater than ever. To fulfill that 'office in the sky' mindset, we looked for platforms that could give customers the same Internet user experience in flight as they would see in their offices," said Curt Gray, Vice President of Satcom Technologies for Satcom Direct. "By utilizing the Exinda Mobile platform in the SDR, we are able to provide customers with a greatly improved in-flight Internet experience."
The Exinda Mobile platform is the only solution currently available that offers the ability to apply collaborative caching and incorporates traffic acceleration based on the user's location. It delivers improved application performance without extra hardware or network reconfiguration, often leading to lower capital costs for customers. With the Exinda Mobile platform, customers can experience faster applications, improved remote collaboration, massive bandwidth savings, high-speed connectivity and a reliable experience for users, wherever they're located.
"Exinda is honored that Satcom Direct has selected the Exinda Mobile platform to help their customers achieve the best user experience possible while in the air. As the mobile workforce continues to grow, it's imperative that customers are able to bypass traditional bandwidth and speed limitations and instead, access their network and critical applications without hassle," said Kevin Kirksey, Vice President of Sales, North America for Exinda. "The Exinda Mobile platform goes above traditional approaches and enables the SDR to offer high-speed connectivity while incorporating traffic acceleration and collaborative caching."
