Gilat Satellite Networks has announced that it signed agreements to provide SkyEdge II-c terminals to three ISPs subscribing to SES Broadband Services' Astra Connect service offering.

Italy's RDN, Switzerland's incumbent Swisscom and the UK's Europasat are distributing Astra Connect Internet services via satellite to enterprise and consumer users in their respective markets.

"The number of ISPs that have signed up for our Astra Connect service using Gilat and other equipment is gaining momentum and represents excellent opportunities for future growth," stated Patrick Biewer, Managing Director of SES Broadband Services.

"Gilat satellite broadband technology offers ISPs the opportunity to deliver high-speed performance and flexible service differentiation," commented Erez Antebi, Gilat's CEO.

"In addition, the platform features advanced, cost-effective self-install functionality and Virtual Network Operation (VNO) capabilities that help ISPs manage their customers more effectively."
