Challenge Networks Upgrades Telecom Service Kiribati Limited (TSKL) to LTE-Over- Satellite Utilizing Lemko Corps DiMoWiNe(tm) Solution in Tarawa and Kiribati
Itasca, IL, Feb 22, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE via COMTEX) --
ITASCA, Ill. - February 22, 2013 - Lemko Corporation and Partner
Challenge Networks are working together to deploy
LTE-Over-Satellite mobile broadband solution for the Telecom
Service Kiribati Limited (TSKL), a 22 island nation located in the
central Pacific Ocean.
Lemko's solution solves complex issues of remoteness by
eliminating backhaul to a central or hosted core. This will
uniquely position the Republic of Kiribati to offer richly
featured, high quality services at a price point that meets their
needs.
"It's a privilege to work with TSKL and Lemko to build a
revolutionary network in what is perhaps one of the most
technically challenging locations in the world for mobile
technology. The highly distributed nature of the population coupled
with the technical and commercial difficulties of only having
satellite backhaul make this a very exciting project," says Simon
Lardner, Managing Director at Challenge Networks.
Lemko utilizes some of the most innovative and cutting edge
application developments in mobile solutions including the use of
LTE over satellite, meshed satellite networks and a distributed and
virtualized mobile core. Lemko's LTE- Over-Satellite
overcomes traditional mobile network barriers so countries like
Kiribati can have connectivity to every island, each other, and to
the rest of the world via satellite.
"Lemko believes that architecture drives strategy. Lemko's
DiMoWiNe(TM) (Distributed Mobile Wireless Network) radically changes
the economics of deploying 4G networks by offering an all-IP
Internet architecture with a compellingly disruptive price point
that overcomes traditional barriers to deploying carrier grade LTE
solutions," says Michael Sisto, Vice President, Sales at Lemko
Corporation.
Lemko offers Cellular R&D Workshops to clients to solve the
constraints of traditional cellular deployments with over 150
cellular use cases including "Remoteness" to support unique and
complex "Anti-Fragile" wireless architecture requirements.
