Residents and businesses in rural areas commonly have no access to broadband communications. Subscribers in these rural areas have requirements from basic dial tone to broadband access, which are simply not being met. Due to remote location, difficult terrain, hostile environment, or wide disbursement of customers, laying copper or fiber may not be a cost effective solution to deliver connectivity. These customers need a flexible, reliable solution that can cost effectively meet their communications needs now and in the future.  The iDirect broadband satellite access solution allows users anywhere to bypass the need for last mile connectivity through landline connections without sacrificing their communications functionality. The iDirect solution has the flexibility to cost effectively meet any customer requirements from basic dial tone, to advanced broadband network solutions.
