Reliable two-way communications anywhere, via satellite
Telecommunications are relied upon by billions each day for reliable, high-speed internet data transfer, real-time video streaming from remote locations around the world, and to enable mission-critical military communications to prevent loss of life. Over 2,000 artificial satellites facilitate these telecommunication services when users are out of reach of cellular and fibre networks.
For these users in remote and off-grid areas, satellite services enable internet access and two-way communication including VoIP calls, SMS messaging and streaming live video. These can be a lifeline for critical comms and application services such as emergency response and military operations.
