As a busy 2017 begins for Ooredoo, the company’s Chief Operating Officer, Yousuf Abdulla Al Kubaisi, (pictured) discussed growing demand for Smart Satellite Services in Qatar. Ooredoo’s Smart VSAT services, which are cost-effective solutions for delivering connectivity and ICT services to even the most remote locations, including desert areas and coastal waters, work by deploying a small satellite dish capable of both receiving and sending satellite signals.
Talking about the services, Yousuf Abdulla Al Kubaisi commented: “Qatar is growing faster than ever and with this expansion comes the need for connection. Whether we are talking about off shore construction, new stadiums or remote locations, connectivity is a vital part of daily life and business, and our Smart VSAT services enables this.”
As well as providing connectivity and Internet solutions, Ooredoo’s Smart Satellite Services include Bandwidth Pooling, the most effective way to share bandwidth resources between multiple remote locations; Maritime Solutions, which ensure high-speed access to the Internet around the clock at sea; OverHorizon Advantage, which provides throughput availability on the move in real time; and “communication on the pause” for vehicles that need ad-hoc remote broadband.
“VSAT solutions are fast becoming one of our most important services in Qatar and we’re going to invest heavily to ensure latest solutions and best network experience is available for companies looking to stay connected in previously un-connectable areas.” Al Kubaisi added. Ooredoo’s Smart VSAT solutions provide businesses with a full suite of services based on tailored designs, reliable deployment and integrated satellite solutions to meet any technical objectives.
