ANTlabs’ Networking Solutions Establish Strong Presence In The Middle East

Since its initial foray into the Middle East in early 2005, Advanced Network Technology Laboratories (ANTlabs) has since established a strong presence in the region with its networking solutions deployed for a number of well known Telco and hospitality institutions.

On the hospitality front, with its reputation world-wide as one of the leading enablers of high speed Internet access for the hospitality industry, well-known hotels such as the Al Bustan Palace and Shangri-La Barr Al Jissah in Muscat Oman, Radisson Dubai and Crowne Plaza Abu Dhabi have likewise chosen ANTlabs to power the high speed Internet access service for its guests throughout their premises.

The advanced features of the ANTlabs’ InnGate service gateways such as the patented Tru’Connect technology, built-in authentication, network management and bandwidth shaping enables these establishments to offer a whole new range of value-added Internet services for their guests. ANTlabs thus enables them to create more business value which in turn increases service potential and enhances revenue streams. Guests in these hotels can now enjoy 24x7 high speed Internet access (HSIA) connectivity in their
rooms, the lobby, function rooms and eateries. The HSIA service also enables these hotels to offer a more complete range of services, allowing them to capitalize on the booming MICE industry.

ANTlabs’ reach in the Middle East is not limited to hospitality deployments. ANTlabs now powers the wireless broadband services of both OmanTel and YemenNet, the largest Telco operators in the region, making ANTlabs the most recognized network solutions provider for enabling valueadded wireless broadband services in the Middle East. Both telcos have rolled-out massive nation-wide hotspot deployments similar to what ANTlabs had done for the leading telcos across Asia such as SingTel, StarHub and TMNet. The service brings wireless broadband to cafes, shopping centers, airports and municipal areas in a country-wide deployment area spanning close to a hundred sites.

Through the ezXcess™ Service Selection Gateways, users will enjoy seamless connectivity with ANTlabs’ patented Tru’Connect™ Zero Configuration technology, an adaptive network technology that allows any Internet and wireless-capable device to connect without configuration changes or client software. Users will also benefit from the security features of the SSG that prevent MAC spoofing and other malicious attacks which can degrade the broadband experience especially in a public access environment.

“OmanTel and YemenNet chose ANTlabs for its proven track record in ASEAN that has garnered the company a 100% share of the Telco wireless public broadband access market in Singapore and more than 75% market share in Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore. OmanTel and YemenNet have placed their confidence in us because we can leverage on our past successes and the wealth of experience working with leading Telcos, significantly reducing the project risks and ensuring success.” said Mr Ang Kwang Tat, CEO ANTlabs.

“If the current rate of adoption of ANTlabs solutions in the Middle East is anything to go by, we certainly expect more contract wins in the coming year with several potential deals already in the pipeline. We are on track to be the market leader in the MiddleEast, in the same way that we already are, for South Asia.” said Mr Ang.
