Globecomm Systems Inc. (NASDAQ: GCOM), a leading global provider
of communications solutions and services, has launched its Airborne
managed network services offering for broadband access to airborne
platforms. Globecomm has been awarded multiple contracts valued at
approximately $4 million to provide US Government end-users with Ku
and X band aeronautical services.
Combining its global teleports, satellite capacity, dedicated
terrestrial backbone, Network Operations Center and 24x7 Help Desk,
Globecomm will deliver the same quality voice, data and video
services and support to aircraft that it provides to land- and
maritime-based end-users. These services enable the US Government
to transmit large amounts of data to and from aircraft for multiple
applications. The X-band services are provided through Globecomm’s
commercial X-band facility in Western Europe; Ku-band services are
provided from the Globecomm teleport facilities in the US and
Europe. All services are connected directly to customers or to the
Globecomm- hosted Defense Information Systems Network (DISN) via
its secure global terrestrial network.
Dwight Hunsicker, Vice President of Government Business
Development, said: “Supporting our customers with the reach of our
satellite managed network services footprint to the frontier of the
stratosphere represents the breadth and depth of Globecomm’s
capabilities.”
