Abstract

Introducing the National Company for Telecommunication Services and NCTS Network Management System (NMS). Tibasat satellite is launched at the orbital position 35.5° east for telecommunications services. The commercial payload for the Tibasat VSAT network consists of 22 spot beams that cover every area in Egypt and some parts of other countries working in the “ka” frequency band. The forward feeder link capacity is 4 GHz in the frequency band 27.5 GHz to 29.5 GHz (2 GHz in RHCP and 2 GHz in LHCP). The Return for the feeder link is in the frequency band 17.7 GHz to 19.7 GHz (also 2 GHz in RHCP and 2 GHz in LHCP). These 22 spot beams provide two-way communications services to facilitate high-speed delivery of data to end-user applications such as broadband Internet and corporate networking as well as IP backhaul for telecommunications service providers. NCTS NMS provides constant monitoring and management of all the subsystems that constitute the Tibasat commercial payload VSAT network in addition to providing technical support to our customers. The goal of NCTS NMS is to achieve maximum reliability for the systems and minimum MTTR in order to achieve the required availability to the customer’s connectivity. In this workshop, NCTS will describe the different NMS subsystems and our strategy to provide technical support to our customers
