After demonstrations and tests in Kuwait, GULFSAT decided to deploy the DEV ARCHIMEDES Matrix Switch because DEV's solution requires less rack space and has significantly lower power consumption than predecessor products.

Nikesh Paul Mathew, Senior Satellite Engineer says, When DEV Sales Managers demonstrated their RF Matrix Switch ARCHIMEDES at our premises in Kuwait, we were impressed with its features. We decided to install the DEV ARCHIMEDES in our teleport in Cyprus as we can manage and control the services remotely.

In addition, ARCHIMEDES' integrated functionalities such as LNB Powering, Redundant Controller and the easy-to-use Multi-Touch Display uniquely addressed GULFSATs requirements.
