Broadband/VSAT network information

VSAT Services offer broadband satellite internet comparable to cable and DSL networks.

VSAT offers two solutions: internet connectivity where wired networks are unavailable. The second one is as reliable, scalable backup systems for terrestrial telecom services.

With 1.7 million VSAT terminals worldwide, the satellite broadband market serves enterprises, government authorities and consumers in areas where it remains the optimal and sometimes unique solution for accessing a high-speed network.

A VSAT (Very Small Aperture Terminal) is a two-way satellite ground station with antennas up to 3 meters. Most VSAT antennas range from 90 cm to 1.2 m. Bandwidth typically ranges from 64 Kbit/s up to 4 Mbit/s.

VSAT uses geostationary satellites offering virtual global coverage. Communication is possible between a remote earth stations (terminals) to a master earth station called "hub" (in star configurations) or to other terminals in the group (in mesh configurations).

VSATs can be used to transmit small data messages like such as credit card transactions, polling’s or remote monitoring of objects. Secondly VSATs are very useful or broadband data like internet access in remote locations compressed video transmission.

VSAT service enables small terminals to benefit from always-on broadband connectivity. In addition to supplying a single work station or a local network, D-STAR can serve Wi-Fi hot spots or power line networks.

VSATs are available for use on fixed-, transportable - and on-the-move locations.
