In today’s digital age, being connected at all times is becoming more of a need than a desire, which makes the thought of going away to sea for extended periods with no connection seem almost intolerable. Governments looking to recruit and retain navy personnel are therefore increasingly looking at ways to provide a better connection to the outside world.
What if people could experience reliable fibre-like connectivity in remote locations at sea - similar to what they use back at home? SES Networks developed revolutionary connectivity solutions that leverage the multi-orbit capabilities of its Geostationary and fibre-like high throughput Medium Earth Orbit satellite fleet (O3b MEO). Coupled with the company’s end-to-end solutions approach, it is transforming the entire sector of morale, welfare and recreation.
This means that governments are now able to supply navy personnel deployed in even the most remote areas with access to fibre-like connectivity - allowing them to stay in touch with the families, access online services or streaming.
For exclusive insights on how multi-orbit satellite connectivity solutions transform the experience of navy personnel, secure an interview with our government sector expert Nicole Robinson, SVP Global Government at SES Networks (To set up an interview, please contact our communications team by email: regomoditswe.kobe@mslgroup.com; tel: +27872551599; mobile: +27761062785).
A live demo showcasing how satellite-enabled connectivity is used to transmit live video feeds from a naval ship, will be given at the IMDEC event jointly with SES partners. Should you wish to attend the demo, send us an email or visit our stand at Adlon Ballroom # MD04.
About SES
SES is the world’s leading satellite operator with over 70 satellites in two different orbits, geostationary orbit (GEO) and medium Earth orbit (MEO), also known as O3b MEO - the only non-geostationary system delivering fibre-like connectivity. The company’s upcoming revolutionary next-generation MEO satellite system O3b mPOWER will complement SES’s fleet to provide terabit-scale capability.
SES has been operating in Africa since 1999, and is present in various locations, including Accra, Nairobi, Lagos, Addis Ababa – to name but a few. The company’s managed data services are connecting people globally, even in the most remote locations.
