Leveraging Thuraya’s expertise in developing compact, lightweight, and rugged satellite broadband terminals, IP NEO ensures seamless data transmission across its coverage, high-speed connectivity and robust network resilience for critical sectors, including government agencies, NGOs and corporations.

“It will unlock new opportunities for secure and resilient high-speed connectivity for demanding land and ocean environments,” he said.

The new terminal is part of Space42’s next-generation product portfolio, built on a strong and reliable platform developed by Cobham Satcom.
