New deal to offer high speed broadband satellite services to large Mexican enterprises
Posted on: Thursday, 26 February 2004, 06:00 CST
Comsat International ("Comsat"), a leading provider of enterprise networking services throughout Latin America, and Tachyon Networks Incorporated ("Tachyon"), the leading provider of carrier grade broadband satellite services for large enterprises and government agencies, announced a strategic partnership that will allow Comsat to leverage Tachyon's network infrastructure to offer reliable high speed broadband satellite services to large enterprises in Mexico and portions of Central America and the Caribbean.
Comsat's extensive enterprise, carrier and ISP base of customers will be able to take advantage of Tachyon's enhanced broadband network portfolio at access speeds up to 2 Mbps from the most remote areas not served by wireline carriers.
"Comsat's existing base of enterprise customers requires a broadband solution that can be leveraged for primary Internet access in remote locations as well as serve as a disaster recovery/backup solution for operations in metropolitan areas served by landline carriers," said Alfonso Torres, Comsat's country manager in Mexico. "Tachyon's technology allows us to economicallyfill this void."
The Comsat service went live in Mexico in January, with Tachyon locating a gateway hub at Comsat's Mexico City teleport; Comsat will provide sales, network and service management for the region. Tachyon has provided services in Mexico, parts of Central America and the Caribbean since 2000, serving customers including Rolls Royce Energy Systems, Gates Rubber Company and Lexmark International from its gateway in San Diego, California.
