Communications
Satellite technology was a very important component of
the communications matrix.
It provided connectivity to ECU’s Bridge and then to
destinations around the world.
This dish communicated with a similar one at ECU’s School of
Medicine to transmit
and receive various forms of data. In some cases this data traveled as far as South
Africa to facilitate a telemedicine consultation.
