Gilat Satellite Networks Ltd. (NASDAQ:GILT) (TASE:GILT), a
worldwide leader in satellite networking technology, solutions and
services, announced today the launch of X-Architecture for SkyEdge
II-c, its revolutionary distributed Architecture to address the
growing demands of High-Throughput Satellites (HTS). The
Software-Defined Networking (SDN)-based architecture enables
satellite operators and service providers to support mobility,
enterprise, cellular and consumer broadband applications and
business models from a single platform.
The programmable, cloud-based architecture allows networks of
any size, using traditional wide-beam and high-throughput
satellites, to deliver managed services in hosted or virtual
network business models. X-Architecture was built to support
dynamic on-demand services, empowering service providers to broaden
their offerings. Unique cloud bandwidth management capabilities
enable both mobility and Virtual Network Operators (VNOs) services
over spot-beam satellites.
Flexibility is enabled by the distributed architecture, which
separates data center functions from baseband elements. The network
is easily controlled by a global, unified and centralized network
management system, Gilat's TotalNMS.
Total Cost of Ownership is significantly reduced with 1:N
inter-beam redundancy, 30 separate VNOs per rack, automatic remote
service provisioning, Cloud-VNO over multi-spot beams and SDN/NFV
future-ready functionality.
With X-Architecture, satellite service providers can now easily
expand their offerings to reach a broad range of up-and-coming
markets for high-bandwidth satellite communications, including
broadband access, 4G/LTE cellular rapid deployments, hardware and
software enterprise VNOs, as well as mobility applications for
in-flight connectivity (IFC), maritime and trains.
“We believe that X-Architecture is the only platform on the
market capable of realizing the full potential of HTS,” stated Dov
Baharav, Gilat’s Chairman of the Board and Interim CEO. “In
validation of the strength of our technology, X-Architecture
has already enjoyed early success in major deals with leading
satellite operators in Europe, China and Latin America.
“Not only do we deliver the most innovative technology, we also
are committed to our long-term partnerships with satellite
operators and their continued growth with built-in support for
next-generation HTS and satellite constellations,” Dov Baharav
concluded.
X-Architecture for SkyEdge II-c will be unveiled at Gilat’s
booth (J2) at the China Satellite Conference in Beijing, October
28-30, 2015, and will also be showcased at AfricaCom in Cape Town,
November 17-19, 2015.
