Europe-based Avanti Communications announced that it had already completed the first installation of Ka Band VSAT services in South Africa’s “Working for Water” project. The programmed is ran by the Department of Environmental Affairs and seeks to combat invasive alien plants threatening the country’s waterways and biodiversity. The Working for Water programme has already been recognized as one of the most outstanding conservation efforts in the world.
Avanti Communications had been tasked to deliver data connectivity across urban and remote locations of the program. The satellite communications company is utilizing the HYLAS 2 satellite for the program’s research and monitoring components. The remote locations are not easily serviced by fixed terrestrial communications network, so the conservation initiative has turn to satellite communications solutions offered by Avanti, a pioneer in the Ka band technology.
The HYLAS 2 bird services Sub-Saharan Africa, delivering services like internet by satellite and other high speed broadband solutions to complement both mobile and ground networks.
