UFINET TELECOM awards Telecontrol STM a new contract for the migration of satellite services.

Telecontrol STM has been awarded the migration of two satellite VSAT platforms operating under the imprint of Hispasat (Technology Hughes PES 5000 and Viasat Linkstar).

They will be changed to two new Hughes HX platforme, one operating in Ka band and the oher one in Ku band. These new platforms will use Hispasat satellites to operate with the same orbital position.

The tasks to be performed are:

  • Replacement of satellite terminals
  • Installation of asynchronous wrappers
  • Commissioning of each facility
  • Documentation and update of all project facilities

The project scope are 1,856 terminals to be configured on both platforms. The objective of the project is to migrate each terminal from its current satellite configuration to the one that will have on the teleport destination, always with HX technology, but with radiofrequency Ku or Ka.

The execution period considered is two and a half years.
