South Africa : MWeb Business releases new suite of SATELLITE BROADBAND PRODUCTS [TendersInfo (India)](TendersInfo (India) Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) A suite of satellite broadband products has been introduced by MWeb Business, which offers uncapped Internet access to South African consumers. Mweb was expanding the uncapped model to its VSat-based satellite products. The main objective of this new product is at users in remote parts of South Africa that are not well served with Internet infrastructure. This includes those on the outskirts of the country s main metropolitan centres. The uncapped options are available in speeds ranging from 1Mbit/s to 10Mbit/s and are priced at a level to make VSat the preferred connectivity option for businesses that have high Internet data requirements and no fixed-line alternatives available . MWeb Business product head Hennie van Tonder added, Even with the more recent aggressive roll-out of fibre infrastructure in South Africa, it has only incrementally increased the available services to outlying areas . The value of the entry level, 1Mbit/s uncapped satellite service is estimated at R915/month, while the top-end, 10Mbit/s product is R3 075/month. 2Mbit/s and 4Mbit/s options costs R1 750/month and R2 365/month respectively. These fees exclude satellite dish, modem and installation fees and are subject to a 12-month deal. (c) 2014 Euclid Infotech Pvt. Ltd. Provided by SyndiGate Media Inc. (Syndigate.info). |
