Q-KON, the prominent satellite service provider based in Africa, has deployed Eutelsat OneWeb Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) connectivity at a strategic site in Africa, marking the initial phase of a broader roll-out initiative.
At the forefront of this deployment, Q-KON integrated Eutelsat OneWeb connectivity at the first branch of a renowned “leading digital bank.” This implementation facilitates a comprehensive range of services, including intranet, SD-WANs, branch online management, data backhauls, staff and customer Wi-Fi, and ATM services. The solution not only ensures anytime connectivity but also incorporates robust security protocols necessary for real-time transmission of sensitive bank account and financial transaction data. The digital bank, a key player in the African banking sector, is actively contemplating extending the Eutelsat OneWeb LEO system to multiple branches.
Q-KON, incorporating the LEO service into its Twoobii Smart Satellite Services offering, asserts its capability to deliver low-latency connectivity at 50 Mbps.
Dawie de Wet, CEO of Q-KON, expressed confidence in the efficacy of the Q-KON Twoobii Eutelsat OneWeb solution in financial services contexts and said: “This fully operational LEO installation is further evidence of the utility of the Q-KON Twoobii Eutelsat OneWeb solution in financial services contexts. We look forward to continuing the roll-out of this LEO connectivity solution to more bank branches to benefit the customers of our leading digital banking client.”
