Announcement posted by TC Communications Pty Ltd 06 Sep 2011

CEO of TC Communications discusses how far satcoms have evolved in the past 20 years - smaller, lighter, cheaper!
Over the past twenty years, TC Communications has seen satellite communications evolve and become increasingly more accessible and affordable. TC CEO was invited to discuss the changing face of satellite communications with presenter Brooke Corte on Sky Business News.

TC Communications, Australia's leading satellite communications company, has seen the satcom market grow from the domain of governments and media customers with very deep pockets who could afford the $100 000+ investment needed in order to provide the means to make a satellite call, to the present day where it has become an everyday business tool for corporate clients and the gadget of choice for Grey Nomads and adventurers.

Todd McDonell is a well known industry expert and his opinion is highly sought on the speaking circuit. Within the past few months alone he has presented papers at:
TheAustralasian Satellite Forum,
TheDefence and Industry Conference and,
TheAerial Fire Fighting Conference.

Drawing on his twenty years of experience, Todd discusses the latest technologies in the satellite communications world with Brooke - ranging from providing the means for the resource sector to more efficiently transfer data from remote sites, climate monitoring and analysis, SCADA applications and even the most simple human need to pick up the phone and call someone.

The latest gadget, which is featured on the Tech Report is the Inmarsat IsatPhone Pro - a handheld satellite phone which has brought satellite technology to the general public. In May this year TC was appointed as Inmarsat's Australian DP and since that time have seen the quickest uptake of satellite technology by the market in over twenty years. With hundreds of units being sold in the past 3 months. the IsatPhone has proven to be a game changer in Australia and is sold via the allsatphones brand by TC Communications - as well as through an Australia-wide dealer network.
