Launched by Arianespace from Kourou, French Guiana today, TerreStar-1 is the foundation for TerreStar’s satellite communications network; ensuring network resiliency and availability during times of critical communications need.

“With the successful launch of TerreStar-1, we are redefining the mobile communications landscape,” said Dennis Matheson, CTO of TerreStar. “We are creating a new paradigm in mobile broadband network services and devices that will leverage our integrated satellite and terrestrial communications components to enable true ubiquity and reliability – anywhere in the United States and Canada.”

“Today’s launch is just the beginning of the TerreStar story,” said TerreStar President, Jeff Epstein. “We believe there are tremendous opportunities ahead – in both the commercial and government sectors – and we remain focused on our promise to help solve the critical communications and business continuity challenges faced by government, emergency responders, enterprises and rural communities.”

Prior to the launch of TerreStar-1, the Company, with its partner EB (Elektrobit), introduced the world’s first quad-band GSM and tri-band WCDMA/HSPA smartphone with integrated all-IP satellite-terrestrial voice and data capabilities. Similar in size to today’s mainstream mobile devices, TerreStar’s dual-mode smartphone will allow users to seamlessly and securely stay connected to TerreStar’s satellite and terrestrial network.

TerreStar’s network will operate in two 10-Mhz blocks of contiguous MSS spectrum in the 2 GHz band throughout the United States and Canada – with a spectrum footprint that covers a population of nearly 330 million.

This arrangement will bring cost efficiency vis-à-vis international IP bandwidth by restricting local internet traffic within the country. Besides that, it will also provide routing efficiency especially in accessing the locally hosted websites. Considering as a major step towards Information Communication Technologies (ICT) revolution, the arrangement will also have an indirect impact on proliferation of local internet content development in the country.

In continuation to its role as an industry facilitator, PTA was mutually working with PTCL and TWA for establishment of Local Internet Exchange Point(s) in the country. In this regard a number of discussions and deliberations were carried out by PTA and necessary solutions for implementation of said peering arrangements were conversed.

Chairman PTA, Dr. Mohammed Yaseen in his remarks appreciated the efforts of the ICT Directorate of PTA, PTCL and TWA for working on the project and said that this initiative would bring a remarkable effect on Internet industry of Pakistan. The Chairman also highlighted that the ICT Directorate at PTA has embarked on several other projects that would soon bring fruitful benefits and productive results for the consumers and the industry. PTCL and TWA valued PTA’s exertions and ensured their continuous corporation for the betterment of Internet industry.

It may be noted that Internet Service Providers (ISPs) of Pakistan seek international Internet connectivity through PTCL and TWA. The domestic Internet traffic originated by ISPs of the country is being routed through international hops as currently no mutual peering points exist in Pakistan. The present routing scenario is resulting in unnecessary delay for the local internet traffic, burden on International Internet links and increase in average per bit delivery cost of ISPs. With this agreement, all such issues will be addressed and local internet traffic will be fastest.

Nordea is the largest bank in the Nordic region. It is also Norway’s second largest bank with approximately 3,500 employees in Norway. The agreement Nordea has entered into with Telenor is worth approximately NOK 30 million per year and runs for three years. Nordea chose Telenor because of its positive experience with Telenor’s previous telephony services and a fully integrated solution for fixed-line and mobile telephony which will help reduce the bank’s overall telephony costs and increase availability. Telenor will supply new exchanges with a switchboard support system and fixed-line and mobile telephony. The new solution will be supplied, tested and rolled out in autumn 2009.

An important step for Nordea is the replacement of its DECT wireless telephones with the flexible ProffNett solution for mobile telephony. The new solution also allows Unified Communication solutions so that Nordea can gradually start to use the “future’s branch offices”. The agreement allows for cooperation on this point and other innovative solutions to support Nordea’s business processes.

“Telenor appreciates the trust Nordea has demonstrated by handing over the supply and operation of such a business-critical system to Telenor,” says Ragnar Kårhus, head of Telenor in Norway.

“Nordea is extremely pleased with this cooperation on the development of a technically and commercially better telephony solution for the Norwegian part of the bank’s operations,” says Gunn Wærsted, Managing Director of Nordea in Norway.
