Yahsat launches satellite broadband service in South Sudan

Abu Dhabi-based satellite company Yahsat is readying to introduce its YahClick broadband service to South Sudan that will deliver high-speed internet by satellite service across parts of the country cut of from fibre or fixed wireless services. Yahsat said it will be partnering with the local company RCS-Communication for the delivery of the wireless Internet service to a wider range of Sudanese.

South Sudan is the world’s youngest country and the government is looking for ways to upgrade its telecommunications network. The Internet is a crucial platform for progress and the nation’s government expects the new project from Yahsat will expand wireless Internet solutions at affordable rates.

YahClick is the first ka band-based satellite internet service in the African continent. The service is targeted at providing customers in far-flung regions broadband access. Yahsat is already training of VSAT technicians along with support staff for the introduction of the service in South Sudan.
