Also acquired were multiple iNFINITI 5000 Series Satellite Routers to launch a hosting service for Virtual Network Operators (VNOs). The new offering will target a diverse range of vertical markets in the EMEA region. CHE is an independent UK based teleport operator that provides a range of satellite and communication services for business and government customers worldwide. With the debut of its new offering, CHE has signed its first VNO customer, AGC Marine Telecom, one of Europe’s largest marine stabilized VSAT installers and distributors. AGC Marine will provide its mega yacht and cruise line customers with high-speed broadband connectivity supported by the advanced features of the iDirect platform. In addition to its VNO operations, CHE will be launching an IP broadband service using iDirect’s nexgen Evolution DVB-S2 system with Adaptive Coding and Modulation (ACM). The investment enables CHE to develop a multiple-satellite DVB-S2 network for operators with markets in Africa and the Middle East, where space segment remains highly limited—Herndon, Virginia
