BANGALORE, JUNE 8. ITI Ltd., Bangalore, has won a major contract from the Union Ministry of Home Affairs in the face of tenders from leading satellite companies in India and overseas.

The project involves setting up a satellite-based countrywide telecom network consisting of both static and mobile stations, with a captive hub in Delhi. The network operates in C-band with advanced encryption for transmission of video, data and voice.

ITI plans to execute this project much ahead of its scheduled completion of 24 months. ITI will be the systems integrator for the project valued at Rs. 63 crores. While the public sector company will manufacture the main sub-systems at its manufacturing locations, a few others will be sourced from international markets.
