Skybrokers installed a refurbished Viasat 7.7m antenna

For an urgent project Skybrokers delivered a 7m satellite antenna to Cyprus for CYTA. The client inspected the antenna that was readily available at our antenna facility in the USA and requested us to deliver and install the earth station at CYTA’s Makarios Teleport in Larnaca on Cyprus. Our installation team performed the installation with a tight deadline just before Christmas in 2010. The antenna was successfully commissioned in January 2011.

CYTA, the Cyprus Telecommunications Authority, is a semi-governmental organization incorporated by law. The company is the leading provider of fixed line telecommunications, mobile telecommunications and internet access in Cyprus.

CYTA was originally established as Cyprus Inland Telecommunications Authority (CITA) in 1955 but was renamed Cyta in 1961 after taking control of external communications from Cable and Wireless, Ltd.
