The Value of All Orbits: Enhancing Connectivity with Satellites

Join Michael Geist, Vice President of Product Management at SES Space and Defence, as he delves into the critical value of utilizing all orbits for optimal connectivity. This video explores two key con-cepts: coverage, latency, and congestion; and availability and scalability. Learn about the unique characteristics and benefits of low-Earth orbit (LEO), medium-Earth orbit (MEO), and geostationary Earth orbit (GEO) in terms of coverage area, latency, and congestion. Understand how each orbit serves different applications, from internet traffic to enterprise and broadcast connectivity. Discover how combining these orbits fills coverage gaps and provides the best availability and scalability for users globally. Michael concludes with real-world use cases demonstrating the seamless integra-tion of all orbits to deliver superior connectivity solutions. Through this video you will learn: • Coverage, Latency, and Congestion: Understand the differences in coverage area, latency, and congestion across LEO, MEO, and GEO. • Application Suitability: Learn which orbits are best suited for internet traffic, enterprise ap-plications, and broadcast connectivity. • Availability and Scalability: Discover how combining all orbits enhances global coverage, reduces congestion, and improves scalability. • Real-World Use Cases: See practical examples of how all orbits work together to provide optimal connectivity for various applications. • SES's Multi-Orbit Strategy: Gain insights into SES's investment in multi-orbit solutions to deliver best-in-class services to customers.
