As part of the project, Gilat will supply the national operator with a fully managed network connecting approximately 7,000 branch offices with SkyEdge II VSATs. The SkyEdge II network will also be integrated into the MPLS backbone as well as the operator's network management system.
The network will serve to drive the growing need for postal services across the country, supporting local and regional communities with essential communications and transactional connectivity.

Our SkyEdge II system was selected following a rigorous public tender, having provided an excellent Total Cost of Ownership solution by offering the most efficient solution for allocating bandwidth across remote locations, economically serving the different traffic requirements across network sites."
