Indian ISP Signs With Loral Cyberstar

India's Internet market is continuing to boom but is hampered by a lack of ground connections making satellite based solutions all the more attractive

Rockville - Feb. 19, 2001
Wipro.Net, one of India�s leading ISPs, has signed a multiyear contract with Loral CyberStar for the high-speed, satellite-based WorldCast Premier Internet access service, ensuring better service and quality for Wipro.Net subscribers.

"Our relationship with Cyberstar will provide cost-effective and faster Internet access to our growing customer base, which comprises large corporations and businesses as well as retail customers," said V. Ganesh, chief financial officer, Wipro.Net.

"With our initial nine gateways strategically located throughout India, we will be able to expand our network quickly beyond our current service area," he added

CyberStar�s WorldCast Premier service provides cost-effective, high-performance connectivity to businesses needing access to the North American Internet backbone.

A multicast satellite communications technology that takes advantage of the broadcast nature of satellites and the asymmetric nature of Internet traffic, WorldCast Premier is an ideal solution for ISPs, government and educational institutions, and telecommunications carriers.

"Cyberstar is pleased to be associated with Wipro.Net to provide high-capacity Internet backbone services along with its 'edge-of-the-net' solutions," said Raghu Das, vice-president and general manager of Cyberstar�s Indian Ocean region.

"The business relationship optimizes the strengths of both companies and the satellite broadband services directly delivered to Wipro.Net�s rooftop will allow its subscribers to experience increased throughput and quick response time."
