There’s a massive opportunity to expand mobile networks. The market for remote and rural coverage is growing exponentially. And satellite connectivity is more critical than ever to improve emergency response, manage data traffic volumes and support our voracious appetitive for video. The time to act is now! Scroll down to get the full story.
REACH EVERY OPPORTUNITY
The Future of Cellular Backhaul
Satellite’s Full Range
See how satellite connectivity’s inherent capabilities, strengthened by recent innovations, can help mobile operators address key network challenges and bridge growth gaps.
Remote, Rural and Ultra-Rural Connectivity
As mobile phones continue to spread throughout developing parts of the world, mobile operators will need to supply remote coverage that can handle not only traditional voice but new, data-heavy applications as well.
Emergency Response
Mobile operators need their networks to remain online for disaster response and recovery efforts. Satellite can provide seamless and reliable failover, evening transforming vehicles into mobile hotspots.
OTT CONTENT DISTRIBUTION
Satellite can cost-effectively support over-the-top (OTT) content distribution, especially for bandwidth-intensive video applications and software updates for connected applications.
5G APPLICATIONS
Satellite can provide a critical support role for 5G network applications, managing traffic congestion through network offloading, and partitioning bandwidth to protect key applications.

NSR says it’s time for a better business case
Major Growth Ahead
NSR projects a jump in the number of base stations connected over satellite, as well rising satellite backhaul capacity volumes. This is a clear response to the insatiable demand for mobile communication.
A New Cost Equation to Drive Demand
Combining the low CAPEX setup cost of satellite with the currently highly competitive capacity pricing, satellite backhaul is becoming a very attractive solution for sites requiring high speed, but low data volumes.
Ground Platforms – Key Technology Considerations
- Modem throughput must surpass 100 Mbps
- High spectral efficiency for major OPEX savings
- Data compression and optimization for optimal UX
- A clear technology and company vision for 5G
