| Leading Asian Communications Group Selects World's Most Bandwidth-Efficient VoIP Platform With Optimised Data Apps to Provide Low-cost Communications Over The Internet |
Salisbury, UK, Sept 15, 2011 - (ACN Newswire) - One Horizon Group Plc ("One Horizon Group") has announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Horizon Globex, has signed an agreement to provide its Horizon platform to Asia's leading communications group, Singapore Telecommunications Limited ("SingTel").
Horizon provides optimised communications over the Internet. Enabled by the company's SmartPacket technology, it offers voice over internet protocol (VoIP) from only 2kbps - the world's most bandwidth efficient - and a range of optimised data applications including compressed email, optimised web browsing and instant messaging. Operating on a secure, reliable network, capable of interconnecting any phone system over IP and providing integrated pre-paid and post paid billing options, Horizon offers a complete end-to-end solution for network operators and service providers.
In this strategic partnership, SingTel's satellite division is to sell the Horizon solution as a key part of its offering to the maritime market.
"Horizon will provide maritime customers with a whole new level of efficiency in their satellite communications," says Mr. Mark White, CEO of One Horizon Group, "and total control of their data consumption so they are much better placed to manage their fleet communications costs. This is vital to improving crew welfare and retention by enabling them to provide employees access to low-cost telephony and internet services."
He continued, "This is an important milestone for our company, as the decision to adopt Horizon by one of the world's leading telcos is a powerful endorsement of this game-changing solution. We now have the opportunity to significantly increase the number of new customers who can benefit from this step-change in maritime communications."
