Sep 24, 2009 (Datamonitor via COMTEX) -- GILT | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Gilat Satellite Networks has announced the deployment of a broadband satellite internet service for passengers of Kazakhstan Temir Zholy, the national railway company of Kazakhstan.

Transtelecom, a government-owned telco established to meet the railway's communications needs, selected Gilat as the satellite equipment provider for this deployment. Astel, a service provider in Kazakhstan and long-standing customer of Gilat, managed the equipment installation.

Gilat said that its very small aperture terminals (VSAT) platform was installed on the Tulpar, the railway's fastest train, serving the 1,300km route between Almaty and the capital city of Astana. The first train providing service was completed in the beginning of August 2009. Using an auto-pointing satellite terminal installed on the roof of the train, the VSAT solution provides toll-quality VoIP telephony service and data transmission speeds of up to 2Mbps, said Gilat.

Arie Rozichner, Gilat's regional vice president for Eurasia, said: "The successful operation of this network demonstrates the flexibility of our VSAT technology. We look forward to serving Transtelecom, and other national railways, with additional deployments in the future that will increase the appeal of rail travel."
