ABOUT YAHCLICK
YahClick is a game changing technology that will provide cost effective, high-speed, wide-reaching and reliable satellite broadband services to consumer and enterprise markets in the Middle East, Africa and South West Asia. The core of YahClicks mission is to provide a wide range of flexible service packages with speeds, prices and service levels tailored to meet individual user and market conditions. YahClick is beamed through the Y1B Satellite, which is the first satellite in the region to offer Internet connectivity through Ka-band multi-spot beams, with reusable frequencies to maximise spectrum efficiency. The multi spot-beam technology means greater efficiency on the ground. YahClick has appointed leading service partners who understand the unique requirements of each country, bringing fast and efficient communications to many regions where the demand for reliable Internet is growing. Due to the highly flexible system design, Yahsats Service partners will bundle hardware and service packages tailor-made for specific markets and user segments, from basic Internet access for a home user to high speed service plans for the corporate user. Users will be able to instantly connect to the Internet via a small satellite dish and satellite modem anywhere within the coverage area. They will be able to access a whole world of Internet services without having to wait for terrestrial infrastructure to be developed. Even in areas of heavy rainfall, the technology will adjust the power required to ensure the link is maintained and not lost or disrupted.

HOW IT WORKS
The YahClick satellite Internet connection delivers upstream (outgoing) and downstream (incoming) data to and from a PC or a Mac computer through a high throughput satellite. The end user computer will have high speed Internet access via an Ethernet connection to the YahClick modem. The computer may be connected to the YahClick modem directly or can be attached to a wireless hub or router to connect wirelessly. Upon subscription to the YahClick service, YahClick Service Partners process the order, install the YahClick terminal, and activate the service. The YahClick terminal includes the YahClick Satellite Receiver (either a 74 cm or a 98 cm dish along with the Transmit/Receive device) and the YahClick modem. The YahClick Satellite Receiver can be mounted on a roof, wall or via pole mount on the ground. Once connected, the end user computer sends a request to the YahClick modem, which passes the request to the YahClick satellite. The satellite receives this signal and sends it to one of the YahClick gateways. The request then goes to the Internet Backbone, which retrieves the requested web content from the web server. The whole cycle is then reversed and the requested data is sent to the end user. Depending on the location of the user and the corresponding beam, the Y1B satellite will route the subscribers incoming and outgoing traffic to and from the respective YahClick gateway (Abu Dhabi, Luxembourg, Madrid, or Athens).
