Remote & satellite
Connected where the fibre ends.
For sites that cables and mobile networks don’t reach, we install internet and data links by satellite — plus the mast that holds the dish and the power that keeps it running.
In plain terms
A dish on your site talks to a satellite, and the satellite connects you to the internet or your head office. It works anywhere with a clear view of the sky.
That makes it the practical choice for field operations, remote facilities and organisations running sites in several countries.
What a remote site needs
Three things. All from one team.
01
The link
Satellite terminals installed and commissioned, from small Ku-band dishes to large teleport antennas — for one site or many at once.
VSAT & satellite02
The mast
Masts, dish mounts and rack frames made on our own fabrication floor, so the install doesn’t wait on another contractor.

The power
Backup batteries (UPS) and solar, so the link stays up when mains power is unreliable or absent.

Who it’s for
Sites that can’t wait for a cable.

- BroadcastersTV broadcast backhaul over dedicated SCPC links.
- Service providersShared-hub networks, teleport antennas and RFTs.
Jargon, decoded
The words you’ll hear, in one line each.
- VSAT
- A small satellite dish and modem that gives one site its own data link.
- Shared hub
- Many sites share the capacity of one central station. Cost-effective for most sites. We work on iDirect, SkyEdge and Comtech platforms.
- SCPC
- A dedicated satellite link for one site, used when capacity must be guaranteed — for example, carrying a TV broadcast.
- Ku-band
- A range of satellite frequencies widely used with smaller dishes.
- Teleport
- A large ground station with big antennas that connects satellite traffic to land networks.
- RFT
- The radio electronics mounted at the dish that send and receive the signal.
