Satellite VSAT in Bagram Airfield in Afghanistan

Feb. 23, 2009 - PRLog -- We were among the first telecommunications operators in the satellite technology in the territory of Iraq and Afghanistan and as such we have enjoyed a successful cooperation with the US Department of Defense and individual soldiers from several years.

The Internet connection you can share with other soldiers. Most soldiers deploy with a laptop in hand and a hookup to the Internet in their barracks. This is especially important for the many who are married, and have young children. The Internet access has resulted in major morale improvements. Troops no longer feel cut off from home.
