Satellite point-to-point IP backbone

and IP Trunking networks provide local

networks with access to the internet

(or any other type of network) from a

remote access point to regions without

access to fiber or undersea cable

infrastructure. Connectivity around the

globe, efficiency and reliability are at

the core of STN’s IP trunking services

ensuring a high level of customer

satisfaction.

Point to point IP backbone & IP trunking

STN can offer the satellite

operators/owners the space for hosting

their TT&C antenna(s). Easy site

access, redundant & diverse fiber

network, skilled personal and tools for

the whole or part of TT&C installation

are all part of the package, with the

option for office space if required.

STN’s advantage is the strategic

location which presents a wide visible

arc of 120 degrees allowing easy

access to all major satellites orbital

positions.

Telemetry, Tracking & Control (TT&C)

Time Delay service is designed to

compensate for time-zone differences

at transmission or during reception.

This application consists of delaying

one or multiple incoming live

programs, without causing output

service interruption and ensuring

continuous operation. It is equally

useful for delivering content to

broadcasters, and for delaying

transmission.
