ISP RMS Broadband has issued a new press release officially announcing their latest one-way broadband satellite packages:
RMS LAUNCHES NEW UK WIDE SATELLITE BROADBAND SERVICE
Affordable broadband service for residential and office use now available
RMS Broadband today announced the launch of a new one-way satellite broadband service, which will enable home and office users access to affordable, Internet broadband, wherever they are in the UK.
The service will deliver an Internet connection that is typically 4x times faster than ADSL and a massive 50x faster than a standard telephone line. Minimum download speeds are guaranteed.
According to Graham Venn, Managing Director of RMS: Our research shows that the majority of potential broadband users are looking for fast downloading, combined with a good browser capacity. This is exactly what a one way satellite service delivers, so we are confident of significant demand, especially in those areas of the UK not currently serviced by ADSL or cable.
The satellite dish receives data from the Internet and a regular telephone connection transmits the data. As most customers use a 56kb/s modem or an ISDN adapter at 64kb/s or 128kb/s, this means that its much faster to receive information than to send it. And as customers are primarily looking for fast downloads, and quick browsing, the service is designed to exactly meet these needs.
Installation is simple. A 70cm dish, standard installation, USB Satellite modem and software is available for a one-off cost of £249.99 + vat. Monthly bandwidth costs from as little as £29.99 + vat. This makes RMS Broadband the most competitively priced satellite service in the UK.
In the home the RMS Broadband connection can open up a wealth of entertainment and information resources, including video and music on demand and the fast exchange of files between friends and family. Small and medium-sized businesses will also be able to take advantage of the greatly improved connectivity.
The new RMS Broadband service will now enable residential and business users anywhere in the UK to access an affordable high speed service.
