AXESS Networks and ABS Collaborate to Expand Middle East Coverage

August 2, 2023
2 min read
Author: Aayushya Ranjan

AXESS Networks and ABS have joined forces in a new agreement to expand AXESS’ coverage in the Middle East. The collaboration aims to strengthen AXESS’ dual-use strategy for the ABS-2A satellite, providing enhanced opportunities for terrestrial and maritime clients in the region.

This development complements AXESS’ existing Ku-band satellite coverage in the Middle East, which has been further supported by previous agreements for networks on the ABS-3A and ABS-2 satellites.

Our rapid successive roll-out of AXESS networks in the Middle East promotes our service offerings in the maritime, oil & gas, enterprise and telco markets. Additionally, it provides an attractive option for new clients looking to improve their communications to their fixed and mobile activities in the region.

Guido Neumann, President, AXESS EMEA

ABS-2A’s coverage in the region is ideal for supporting AXESS’ maritime clients navigating through the Suez Canal. As more vessels benefit from satellite communications supported by AXESS’ unlimited, uncapped and unthrottled Ku-band networks, the increased demand is promoting an organic expansion of our already substantial geographic network coverage.

Adrian Redfern, Director of Business Development, AXESS EMEA

Through our collaboration with AXESS Networks, ABS continues to extend its global reach, bringing seamless satellite communications to the Middle East and beyond. As AXESS Networks promotes its service offerings to key verticals on land and at sea, ABS-2A’s ideal coverage in the region provides robust and reliable communications, enabling all business segments to thrive in an increasingly interconnected world.

Ramsey Khanfour, Chief Commercial Officer, ABS

Working with the AXESS Networks team to grow their global coverage is always rewarding. Together we are able to discuss ideas and innovate, working in partnership to find the right solution to enable first-class maritime and land-based solutions.
