COMSOFT Satellite Services GmbH (CSS), a part of the COMSOFT Group, has announced a partnership with Romantis Group, a global provider of satellite capacity and satellite networking equipment, to become a certified installer and distributor for its advanced UHP VSAT products.

As a result of the collaboration, CSS builds worldwide VSAT networks in the Air Traffic Control Management as well as for non-governmental organizations based on Romantis UHP technology.

Romantis UHP (Universal Hardware Platform) is a universal, ultra-compact tool to deploy VSAT networks of any size and topology, like SCPC, controlled (on demand) SCPC, TDM/SCPC, TDM/TDMA, TDM/TDMA Mesh and Full Mesh TDMA.

The platform supports various applications: corporate networks, broadband access, SCADA and CCTV, GSM Backhaul, IP SNG, IPTV, Satcom-On-The-Move. Switching between different modes of operation is done remotely under control of the central gateway.

The CSS UHP-based network provides high throughput IP connectivity fulfilling most sophisticated Quality of Services requirements. It also supports Mesh capability which enables single-hop satellite connectivity between the remotes and facilitates cost-effective creation of regional gateways in enterprise networks deployed in emerging markets.

"We selected the Romantis VSAT technology to serve our valued customers in a very sensitive market where highly reliable products and services are mandatory to survive. We have already implemented several UHP systems in the Air Traffic Control environment with great success.

"The UHP system was followed by an extensive due diligence of different technologies awarded to respect our customers need for secured long-life equipment.

"The technology will further expand our product portfolio in order to fulfil our individual customers demand for best in market solutions," said Markus Tenbeck, Managing Director of COMSOFT Satellite Services GmbH.
