Thuraya IP Satellite Phone and Data Services successfully delivers Streaming Audio

Galaxy 1 Communications along with Vizada, was invited to the Thuraya Land Earth Station to perform Pre-Alpha testing on the newest IP Satellite Data product due to be launched by Thuraya, Thuraya IP. Just outside of Dubai in Sharja, using the latest Hughes Thuraya IP Satellite terminal, we successfully connected to the Comrex lab and fed broadcast quality audio over 32kbps, 64kbps streaming channels, as well as using the Standard Background IP data service. We did notice some packet loss however, the fact that the network had just been switched on live not more that 48 hours earlier with no real testing or adjustments prior, this was a great success.
