HERNDON, Va., Dec. 1, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- VT iDirect, Inc. (iDirect), a company of Vision Technologies Systems, Inc. (VT Systems), today announced that DataDrill Communications Inc., a provider of high-speed voice and data services, has upgraded to iDirect Evolution 3.3 software. This software upgrade, along with the deployment of X7 remotes, will allow DataDrill Communications to meet high-bandwidth requirements and increase overall network performance in core markets like oil and gas, as well as pursue opportunities in new markets across the globe. iDirect is a world leader in satellite-based IP communications technology.
DataDrill Communications' customers in oil and gas require high-performance capabilities as they monitor onshore communications services such as voice, data and real-time applications. With the upgrade to iDX 3.3, DataDrill Communications will leverage Adaptive TDMA (ATDMA) to design and operate their network based on the capabilities of each terminal and optimally configure the return channel in order to match the conditions of over-the-air links, as well as the constraints of each terminal, allowing DataDrill to boost their network throughput and increase network availability.
This latest upgrade and the deployment of X7 remotes are critical as DataDrill Communications expands into new bandwidth-intensive markets such as mining, government and emergency response. The X7's DVB-S2 demod chip, along with the waveform enhancements contained within iDX 3.3, helps to improve network performance and throughput. With the added performance boost of the X7, DataDrill Communications can further differentiate into new markets by offering enhanced service plans.
"Customers in oil and gas increasingly require high-speed, bandwidth-intensive applications to run their operations. With our upgrade to the latest version of iDirect Evolution we can ensure optimal performance of the network at all times, and our customers have access to the latest set of features that allow them to make the most of the applications they are running," said Dario Facca, President, DataDrill Communications.
"DataDrill Communications is a market leader in serving the oil and gas market. Now as the company looks to expand into new markets, such as mining, government and emergency response, the upgrade to iDX 3.3, coupled with its recent purchase of our X7 remotes, provides the high-performance toolset necessary to serve the varying levels of demands across these markets," said Rob Kilroy, Regional Vice President, Americas, iDirect.
