HERNDON, Va., Sept. 24, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- VT iDirect, Inc. (iDirect), a company of Vision Technologies Systems, Inc. (VT Systems), today announced that Telefonica Grandes Empresas in Peru (Telefonica del Peru), a business unit of the Telefonica Group, has upgraded to iDirect Evolution®, running the latest iDX 3.2 software. iDirect is a world leader in satellite-based IP communications technology.
The upgrade to iDirect Evolution 3.2 came in response to one of Telefonica Peru's existing customers, telemedicine provider ESSALUD, opening-up the bidding process for a network provider. The criteria included being able to achieve a high rate of availability while doubling the IP data rate for delivering services. iDirect Evolution 3.2 offers high data rates, and with ATDMA it maximizes bandwidth efficiency, allowing the network to react accordingly in times of peak traffic. Evolution has helped Telefonica Peru deliver ESSALUD global spectral efficiency of 1.8bps/hz and 99.8% availability to 151 sites.
Going forward, Telefonica del Peru anticipates Evolution will help it serve the upcoming national elections in the region, as well as expand existing services and pursue new opportunities associated with government and enterprise customers around Peru.
"For Telefonica Peru it is very important that we are able to deliver highly reliable solutions that can serve multiple types of customers. iDirect's technology is engineered to serve multiple markets and applications, while remaining flexible with the ability to maximize spectral efficiency and deliver the best network availability possible."
