World's Smallest Broadband Data Service

 Fort Lauderdale, FL:  July 16th 2008:  Global Satellite USA, the leading provider in global satellite communications for the yachting and marine, oil and gas, broadcasting, government and emergency management industries, is pleased to announce the launch of Thuraya IP, the new advanced satellite modem that guarantees internet connectivity at an incredible 384 kbps for streaming IP across 110 countries, in remote locations.  Now for the first time, bandwidth-hungry applications such as transmission of store and forward video, live video and video conferencing can be deployed at highly competitive rates.

Martin Fierstone, President of Global Satellite USA, comments, "As a premier provider of Thuraya, its exciting to be one of the first organizations in the US to have access to a superior ‘always on' quick Internet access, that is ultra lightweight at less than 3lbs.  Although small and compact, it also has a high level of robustness with Ingress Protection (IPSS), making this combination ideal for the oil and gas industry or any other tough environment.

The Thuraya IP is extremely easy to use and has a basic ‘plug and play' policy.  There is an Ethernet Interface (RJ45), a USB Interface and most importantly, no software installation is required.  To set up, simply connect the Thuraya IP to a laptop, point to the satellite and enjoy satellite broadband services. Thuraya IP guarantees a permanent connection and does not suffer from any hot spot congestion.   

Thuraya IP comes complete with GmPRs encryption and can connect seamlessly via your preferred VPN application.
