The global shift towards renewable energy is accelerating. Wind farms are moving further offshore. Solar arrays are expanding into remote regions. Hydro facilities are often located far from population centres. While these projects support decarbonisation goals, they also introduce a familiar challenge: reliable connectivity in hard to reach locations. For energy operators, connectivity is not […]
As vessels move beyond the reach of coastal 4G and 5G networks, connectivity quickly becomes more complex. Yet the demand for high performance internet at sea has never been greater. From commercial shipping and offshore energy to cruise operators and government fleets, maritime organisations rely on constant data exchange to operate efficiently and safely. Traditional
Network resilience is no longer about having a single backup link. For enterprises operating in remote, high-risk or distributed environments, uptime depends on architectural diversity. Satellite connectivity has traditionally meant choosing a single orbit. Geostationary satellites offered broad coverage but introduced higher latency. Low Earth orbit systems reduced latency but required new integration approaches. The
Live broadcasting depends on one critical factor: getting content from where it happens to where it needs to be seen. For decades, that has meant satellite trucks, fibre circuits, microwave links and increasingly bonded cellular solutions. Each has strengths. Each has limitations. As live production becomes more mobile and more data-heavy, those limitations become harder
Connectivity at sea has always been defined by distance from shore. Near coastal regions, vessels can rely on terrestrial LTE or port-based infrastructure. Once offshore, however, connectivity becomes dependent on satellite systems. Historically, this has meant higher latency, bandwidth constraints and limited real-time capability. As maritime operations become increasingly digitised, that model is under pressure.
Low Earth orbit satellite connectivity has moved from concept to commercial reality. While much of the public discussion has centred on Starlink, OneWeb has established itself as a serious provider in the enterprise satellite market. Now operating as part of Eutelsat Group, OneWeb delivers LEO satellite connectivity designed specifically for governments, enterprises and telecom operators.
The Shift in Satellite Connectivity For decades, GEO VSAT has been the foundation of satellite communications. It has connected offshore platforms, remote enterprise branches, mining sites, maritime vessels and rural communities where terrestrial infrastructure could not reach. Coverage was the priority, and GEO delivered it reliably. Today, the connectivity landscape looks very different. Organisations are
