As specialists in satellite communications systems, ACSUL can offer the design and installation of VSAT (Very Small Aperture Terminal) systems. These provide dedicated, reliable, cost effective and private communications links for the individual and corporate users, with the provision of total system capabilities to support high bandwidth secure data, Voice and Video communication.

What is a VSAT system?
The use of VSAT systems is growing throughout the world as a way of establishing private satellite communications networks for large organizations that have several widely dispersed locations or providing higher bandwidth for the individual. Depending on bandwidth requirement (Data speed and / or Communications channels), VSAT systems can be relatively small (1 - 2 meter antenna) and easily installed. By linking VSAT terminals to larger hub stations (or land earth stations), a network can be established inexpensively, although in this type of configuration, VSATs can communicate only via the hub and not from remote terminal to remote terminal. This configuration is called STAR configuration. VSAT networks can readily be configured so that the hub can broadcast data to all the VSAT terminals at higher rates than they can communicate to the hub.

Who uses a VSAT system?
The installation of a VSAT system need not be an expensive option. With our expertise we can recommend a system which will cater for your requirements without selling the technology you have no need for. A whole variety of industrial and commercial sectors are using VSAT systems, such as Oil and Gas exploration corporations, Banks, Insurance companies, General stores, Manufacturing organizations, ATMs and Government / Military departments, as well as VIPs.
