Space Data Corporation deploys Lemko DiMoWiNe broadband Internet solution in Alaska

Residents of the remote region of Atqasuk, Alaska can now access wireless broadband connectivity thanks to the new satellite-based commercial LTE network established by a collaboration between Space Data Corporation and Lemko Corporation. The first in the region, the DiMoWiNe-powered Space Data long term evolution (LTE) network will provide regional subscribers with high-speed mobile broadband.

Carrier company Space Data specializes in low-cost connectivity solutions for rural and remote areas where fiber or cell towers cannot be deployed due to terrain and costs. The Company leveraged the DiMoWiNe (Distributed Mobile Wireless Network) software solution by Lemko to create and deploy an affordable yet efficient LTE network.

The satellite Internet services of the LTE network are delivered by the high-altitude SkySite Network. Space Data designed its proprietary communications platforms to be operated by a single person and launched within a couple of minutes from any location on Earth.

Space Data's Alaskan LTE network is powered by Lemko's DiMoWiNe software solution. DiMoWiNe is a virtualized core software program collocated at the eNodeB that speeds up the network by reducing signaling traffic. Virtualizing the core moves switching and routing to the edge of the network. The result is an LTE solution that can tolerate greater amounts of latency and with the capability to deliver mobile broadband over satellite.
