MNO Expansion.
Rural & Mobile Operators
Low-CAPEX, low-OPEX rural RAN with flexible business models for operators.
01Overview
Operators in rural areas face high costs, complex deployments and poor performance. iSAT focuses on cost-effective infrastructure, efficient deployment and advanced technology, plus community engagement, local workforce training and sustainable power.
Our approach is recognised by the GSMA: iSAT Africa won the Connected Society Innovation Fund for Rural Connectivity.
02Why it works
Solar power with no fuel bill, low satellite bandwidth cost, optimised compression, lightweight towers, no shelter or AC.
Software-defined radios, wide coverage, fully IP-manageable with local switching.
Hand-carried, tower-mounted base stations with antennas connected directly, ready for any IP satellite backhaul.
03MNO Expansion
The MNO owns the capital equipment; iSAT Africa provides comprehensive services by monthly subscription.
Fully managed services for a monthly fee under agreements of 10+ years.
We share revenues with the MNO with minimal fixed charges.
One tower, BTS, backhaul and solar shared by two operators to meet obligations at lower cost.
