Nawras, Oman’s customer friendly communications provider, is helping businesses in rural areas by providing enhanced coverage via the launch of VSAT technology. Even In the most secluded locations, companies can now gain access to the internet or connect to their corporate networks nationwide. VSAT, as ‘very small aperture terminal’ is commonly known, is used to transmit data and internet via satellite communication.  Two solutions are being offered to Nawras Business customers including dedicated internet bandwidth and Point to Point connectivity over ‘Single Channel Per Carrier’ or SCPC technology. This option is ideal for medium and large companies, particularly where security and high speed is a priority.
