## What is XWeb?

XWeb compression web-browsing accelerates your web-browsing by a factor of 3 to 5 making it the ideal solution to browsing over satellite, slow land-based Internet, and cellular 3G.

With XWeb you will browse the Internet up to 10x faster over satellite phones. On average XWeb compresses pages by a factor of 3-5x which gives a much improved speed advantage. GMN is able to reduce the time it takes to download typical web images by a factor of up to 10x.

The fast web compression technology reduces typical pictures down to 5% of their original size, dramatically reducing download times. In addition to compressing all the images, XWeb also compresses all text streams, removes obnoxious pop-ads, and removes all backgrounds and animations. Faster download times mean greater savings for you.

It is easy to add XWeb to your XGate Satellite Email service.
