High Speed Education Solutions

The Telecommunications Act of 1996 has mandated Internet connectivity for the U.S. education system. President Clinton has focused national attention on the goal of connecting every school, library and hospital in the U.S. to the Internet by the year 2000.

However, high speed data lines are not present in many rural areas and institutions cannot afford to build them. Yet, these organizations would benefit the most from the educational resources and expertise available on the Internet.

New World Trading Company, in cooperation with FutureLink International, markets satellite equipped servers, with which schools can access the Internet from"anywhere" in the continental U.S. including remote locations where only basic phone lines are present. This solution bypasses the requirement for expensive fiber-optic connections.

Using the technology of FutureLink's partner, Digital Concepts Inc., teachers and administrators pre-determine, on-demand, which sites contain relevant and appropriate information for student access. These licensed users have full access to the Internet and can select specific files to be saved on the DCI intranet web server for unlimited viewing by students and facility. This information can also be sent simultaneously to similarly equipped schools. This restricts access to inappropriate content and helps manage Internet access costs.

As a model, each site will have 5 stations for on-demand access to the Internet. These stations will allow administrators/instructors/students the ability to freely browse the Internet to determine which websites/content will be available on the local server. Also, our system affords the ability to do research on the Internet at 400 Kbps or roughly four times the speed of ISDN.

Satellite Technology

Sending information to multiple locations today requires an individual transmission to each site, consuming bandwidth unnecessarily. Multicasting capability provides simultaneous and secure broadcasts nationwide at 3 Mbps, 100 times faster than a 28.8 Kbps modem!

Digital information may be delivered to any number of authorized satellite equipped servers or workstations without user intervention. This allows information to be delivered to unmanned user sites, such as information kiosks or unstaffed offices.

Geographic limitations disappear as this network technology can be deployed virtually anywhere in the continental U.S.

Get the Internet delivered to you via satellite at up to 400 Kbps
or 15 times faster than a 28.8 Kbps modem. Graphic intensive pages pop-up in an instant. Slash a 6 hour electronic file transfer to less than 20 minutes.
