Eutelsat OneWeb
01Overview
Together with Eutelsat OneWeb, iSAT Africa staged a live demonstration of Low Earth Orbit satellite capability at the Radisson Hotel & Convention Centre in Johannesburg during Africacom.
Senior representatives from more than 20 leading telecom and internet service providers saw for themselves what LEO can do: latency under 60 milliseconds, a new benchmark for internet delivered from space.
02What the demo proved
Fibre-like responsiveness from a satellite link, consistent enough for real-time voice, video and cloud applications.
A milestone in our mission to bring reliable, high-speed internet to remote and underserved regions across the continent and beyond.
Operators and ISPs can extend their own networks with LEO capacity, wholesale, through iSAT Africa as a OneWeb distribution partner.
LEO user terminals
01
Built with leading manufacturers: parabolic antennas of 73cm diameter (77cm tall in a radome) and compact electronically steered antennas of 53 × 18cm. Parabolic units weigh under 22kg, ESAs just 9kg, with a CNX unit for power and data and optional heating for operation down to -40°C.
02
LEO needs a new class of user terminal. A growing range of cost-effective UTs for land, sea and air, engineered to the same standard as the satellites, is already shipping and switched on for customers.
03
Device Hub gives remote access, firmware and diagnostics. Service Hub covers support and incident management, Account Hub handles contracts, quotes and orders, and a 24/7 technical assistance centre backs it all.
We are committed to cutting-edge satellite solutions that meet the evolving needs of our clients and partners. Book a demo to see LEO performance on your own network.
