XSAT AWARDED THURAYA’S BRONZE AIRTIME GROWTH 2005 AWARD

XSAT is one of Thuraya’s International Service Providers (ISP’s) and has been in operation since 2002. In a relatively short period of time, it has become a top ten service provider for Thuraya Satellite Telecommunications Company. XSAT maintains offices in Georgia, USA, and in Dubai UAE, from where it liaises with Thuraya, and manages sales in the Middle East and Africa.

During a recent Forum organized by Thuraya Satellite Telecommunications Company in Dubai, XSAT was awarded the Bronze Airtime Growth 2005 Award by Thuraya. This means that XSAT was responsible for the third highest airtime growth in 2005, a very significant achievement of which XSAT is very proud.

XSAT believes that receiving this award is a tribute not only to the growth of the company but also to the dedication and hard work of its staff. It is totally dedicated to give its customers the best total service possible and it is because of their business and their confidence in us that it was given this award.

As an official ISP for Thuraya, XSAT’s mission is to market and sell its products and services internationally. Thuraya is a mobile satellite telecommunications operator based in the UAE that operates in over 110 countries. It offers mobile handsets that combine satellite, GSM and GPS all in a single unit. Especially the GPS feature may be of interest to your company. Thuraya also offers satellite payphones and independent fixed satellite telephones (PCO) in Thuraya's area of coverage which spans all of Europe as well as most of Africa and Asia.

Using Thuraya telecommunication services, XSAT provides telecommunications solutions to companies, Government Agencies, international organizations and individuals located and/or operating in remote areas. It provides integrated solutions for every specific case, including voice, fax, data, short messaging and GPS in all Thuraya phones as standard features. Besides, Thuraya offers value added services, which are similar to those provided in a GSM mobile phone. In addition, based on Thuraya technology, the following services can be made available: monitoring of pipelines, fleet management, remote surveillance, and aeronautical and maritime telecommunications.

In order to satisfy a growing demand on Iridium phones especially in the United States, XSAT has expanded its product line and has started selling Iridium satellite phones in addition to the Thuraya products. The Iridium System is a satellite-based, wireless personal communications network providing a robust suite of voice and data services to virtually any destination anywhere on earth. The Iridium Satellite System enables remote communication solutions for vertical markets that include: Maritime, Construction, Aviation, Oil & Gas, Mining, Government, Leisure Travel, and Disaster Relief Organizations. Especially with the hurricane season unfortunately coming closer, XSAT is committed to serve clients in the U.S. and help them prepare for disasters at very competitive prices.

XSAT’s expansion does not stop here. Very shortly, it will roll out Inmarsat’s Broadband Global Area Network (BGAN). XSAT USA is committed to provide its customers with the best possible high speed Internet access that is available in the market. In order to do so, XSAT will add the BGAN to the ThurayaDSL Unit. The two systems are complementary in their functionality and your choice of system depends very much on customer requirements and desires.

In May 2006, XSAT will announce the creation of an E-Commerce site where initially VOIP products can be ordered. There are plans to add other products as well.
