Hours after the tsunami struck, SDN Global volunteered emergency use of its satellite infrastructure for life critical voice and data services. SDN headed a
coordinated effort including iDirect Technologies and Loral Skynet to deploy to the region in record time. Today, the United Nations and Red Cross still rely on this
network 24 hours a day.

Noteworthy Quotes
” …, everything has worked flawlessly.
My thanks to you and everyone in the NOC for all your support. Our program wouldn't have succeeded at the level it has without your services and support.
I'm looking forward to continuing to work with your staff on our two current fielding's and I'm sure we'll be in touch soon for the next deployments we have
planned for next year as well”
Al Morris, Goodrich
