New Satellite Broadband Services for Military Personnel and Defense
Contractors in Iraq and Afghanistan







WARSAW, Poland, Oct. 5 /PRNewswire/ -- TS2 Satellite Technologies company is
introducing new satellite link products to the international market. These
types of telecommunication products are mainly used by the companies that
execute contracts in the Middle East and Asia, as well as by soldiers that are
stationed in Iraq and Afghanistan.


"Purchased bands give us unlimited possibilities of configuration and setting
any telecommunication connections from the Middle East region and
South-Western Asia. We can now build networks of any size on such satellites
as Intelsat 10-02, Intelsat 901, ABS-1, ArabSat Badr-4 and NSS-6," said Marcin
Frackiewicz, the President of TS2.


The new TS2 Satellite Technologies (www.ts2.pl) offer is a broadband Internet
and corporate network based on satellites. The operator's broadband services
enable two-way data transfer within the network and simultaneous Internet
access. The company provides all dedicated VSAT services for demanding
customers: VSAT Private Network, broadcasting services, SCPC/SCPC, SCPC/DVB,
MESH services, STAR/DAMA, VSAT Mini Hub Solution and VNO.


"We provide secure and encrypted satellite connections particularly for the
military sector, for any military units, literally in any part of the world,
on the national firing ground and during all international trainings," said
Frackiewicz. He also added: "We have mobile and stationary solutions dedicated
to work in difficult conditions."


TS2 satellite services are used by the U.S. Department of State, United States
Marine Corps (USMC), U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Australian Defense Force
(ADF), Command of Polish Navy, Air Force Institute of Technology, Lockheed
Martin Information Technology, Halliburton Energy Services, KBR, General
Dynamics Information Technology, General Atomics Aeronautical Systems, L-3
Communications Vertex Aerospace, and U.S. Naval Research Laboratory.


The TS2 staff is monitoring the performance of the satellite network 24 hours
a day, in order to enable the immediate help in case of breakdown or receipt
of alert. Due to technical conditions and favourable weather, the Teleport is
located in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Therefore the signal from the headend aerial
is not disturbed by the weather conditions and all connection users of TS2
receive services of the highest availability. The Teleport configuration is
fully redundant and the services are also available on the national market.
