VSAT technology: Fueling enhancedapplications for a competitive industryCredit/debit card authorizationVSAT technology provides a consistent and virtuallyinstantaneous credit card authorization service, with significantlylower transaction costs.

Data pollingVSATs are ideal for quick and efficient gathering of dataconcerning sales, fuel tank monitoring, and inventory levels.Headquarters can accurately monitor the status of all itsnetworked stations in real-time and dispatch gas tankards andother supply trucks – before a station begins to run out.

Frequent shopper programsThe always-on connectivity afforded by satellite networkingmakes tracking individual customer activity a simple task aspoint-of-sale information is consistently available. This affordsyou the opportunity to reward your customers with timelydiscounts and gifts.

Video-at-the-pumpEncourage your patrons to make impulse purchases by providingthem with well-timed promotional information as they fill uptheir tanks.

Gilat VSAT networks afford you the flexibility of caching videomaterials on a local PC or streaming them live for real-timespecial offerings. Video can also be leveraged for demonstrationpurposes (i.e. how to use the self-service pump) and callingattention to onsite services such as ATM or lottery machines.

Chain-wide private networkingHuman Resource data, payroll information and distance-learningvideos for interactive training sessions can all be shared betweenstations quickly and easily.

Software and content distributionMission-critical data such as pricing information and regulatoryupdates can be streamed simultaneously to each station andstored on the back-office computer for easy and immediate staffaccess. This significantly reduces delay in implementing newpricelists and policies.

Voice & FaxVSAT supports simultaneous voice and data transmission,providing inexpensive telephony and fax services for gas stationslocated in areas where phone lines are unavailable.

Gilat Satellite Networks Ltd.(Nasdaq: GILTF) is a global leaderin satellite networking technology.Along with global subsidiaries, thecompany develops, manufactures,sells , deploys and operates comm-unications networks based on itsproprietary Very Small AperatureTerminal (VSAT) technology.

The Company’s networks featurea small satellite dish with soph-isticated networking electronicsand software. The networks areused worldwide by large

enterprises, telephone companies,Internet service providers andgovernements to provide acommunications infrastructurewhich can be independent of fixedland lines.

Gilat’s technology providesreliable end-to-end VSAT satelliteconnectivity anywhere in theworld, creating the ability toconnect where alternatives are toocostly, limited, or non existent.

No Geographic LimitationsLocation is no longer an issue. VSATs are independent ofterrestrial infrastructure, can be deployed literally anywhereand provide each site with equal high-performance access tothe network.

Simultaneous Data and Voice TrafficThe same VSAT can be used for data and voice applications,sharing the same space segment with maximum bandwidthutilization.

ExpandabilityAdding sites and expanding your bandwidth capacity can beaccomplished quickly and easily. Bandwidth allocation iscontrolled at the hub, so that onsite hardware changes ordispatching field technicians to remote sites are unnecessary.This accounts for significant savings and less complicatedupkeep procedures compared with maintaining a terrestrialnetwork.

Flexible

From purchasing staple food items at the onsiteconvenience store to making ATM cash withdrawals,more and more consumers are pulling into gas stations astheir one-stop shop of choice. Deploying a Gilat VSATsolution converts the traditional roadside station into anattractive shopping center that can help to build customer loyaltyby offering value-added, online services that were previouslyunavailable at the pump. Moreover, it comprises the core of an efficient,cost effective and always-on satellite network linking all your stations –no matter how geographically remote they are from one another.

Fill ‘er up: A tank full of gas,a trunk full of goodsIn order to convert a retail petroleum business into a competitiveone-stop shopping site, station owners need to offer theircustomers a variety of attractive services that keep them travelingthat extra mile. In the time it takes them to fill up their tankcommuters may withdraw cash from an ATM machine, buygroceries and cosmetics, or check up on news, sports, weatherand the stock market by accessing the Internet through apumpside PC.
