Bahrain-based teleport services provider Batelco has extended an agreement originally signed in 2011 with global satellite company ABS.
The agreement allows ABS access to a variety of telecom services through Batelco’s approximately 35,900-square-yard operational area. These services include MPLS, SDH national, international networks and Internet uplinks.
“We are extremely pleased to extend our partnership agreement with Batelco as we continue to build our operations in the Middle East and Africa regions,” ABS Chief Technology Officer Ken Betaharon said. “The premises is one of the most impressive in the region and provides a high level of security and optimal operating conditions to ensure business continuity.”
Batelco also operates integration with terrestrial networks and its support staff provides assistance with the company’s satellite and VSAT services. Batelco’s aim is to assist its customers to be able to add more services for their clients.
“The extension of the partnership is a testament to the strong relationship between Batelco and ABS,” Batelco Chief Global Officer Adel Al-Daylami said. “This is a result of Batelco’s reliable connectivity and bespoke solutions that fully support ABS’ operations worldwide.”
