Key Points:
- Intelsat, operator of one of the world’s largest integrated satellite and terrestrial networks and leading provider of inflight connectivity (IFC), has launched new services in Brazil that combine local support, new teleport facilities, and broader satellite coverage to deliver connectivity services to more users across the region.
- All of the assets, technology and infrastructure in Brazil are operational, including the following:
New high-throughput satellite capacity: Intelsat 46e and Galaxy 28, positioned over Brazil and Latin America, will provide reliable connectivity supporting Enterprise, Mobile Network Operator, Media and Commercial Aviation customers. - New teleport facility: Located outside of Rio de Janeiro, the facility expands Intelsat’s existing global network and enables direct connections between Intelsat satellites and Brazil’s local terrestrial networks to reduce the distance user internet traffic has to travel.
- “The combination of more satellite capacity, a new teleport and an operations center make it easier for our customers to deliver higher quality services to more users throughout Brazil,” said Ricardo La Guardia, RVP of Latin American Sales at Intelsat.
