Westlin Corp is pleased to announce the availability of SkyPort Satellite services at the Westlin bunker site. SkyPort is a leading provider of fixed and mobile satellite communications services and has been recognized as the 2004 "Teleport Developer of the Year" by the World Teleport Association.

SkyPort's primary teleport facilities are located within Ellington Field in Houston and will be initially connected to the Westlin bunker via a Gigabit Ethernet fiberoptic connection. In addition, SkyPort broadband satellite equipment will be installed directly at the Westlin bunker.

The joint product offerings from this relationship include: broadband satellite connectivity, SkyPortVIP multi-party VideoNetworking solution, SkyPortSOS Secure Offsite Storage, Access to both Westlin's and SkyPort's VoIP network and gateways, and Westlin's full service Disaster Recovery solution all operated from Westlin's underground data center.

The SkyPort/Westlin offerings present a single-source, turnkey solution for Homeland Security, Corporate Disaster Recovery solutions, and access to wide area alternate communications networks.

"The addition of SkyPort satellite technology with global reach to the Westlin bunker site is tremendous. Now customers have access to Westlin's and SkyPort's advanced Cisco AVVID platform from virtually anywhere in the Western hemisphere. By using the SkyPort's broadband links our customers now have an easier transition to the Disaster Recovery center in the event they need to temporarily relocate their primary site," according to David Herr, Chief Technology Officer at Westlin.

"The Westlin underground bunker is a key asset to SkyPort's mission in providing secure and reliable communications infrastructure for commercial and DOD/Homeland Security customers. This melding of technology, process and human resources in support of Disaster Prevention and Recovery events is unique in the industry. SkyPort and Westlin have leveraged our core competencies to make our customers mission critical information survivable and accessible from anywhere," stated Roger Klotz, President and CEO SkyPort International.
