Satellite Internet for Business
Want fast Internet with less downtime?
Do you or members of your team live or need to complete work in the middle of nowhere, in a rural area where the most basic utilities are lacking and where you have few Internet options? Well your best bet would be satellite Internet for business. Satellite Internet is a wireless connection that involves three satellite dishes: one at the Internet service provider’s hub, one in space and one attached to your property. This technology is becoming more and more popular because of its incredible reliability. Its biggest advantage is speed. In comparison with DSL and dial-up, satellite Internet offers the fastest service with 24/7 connectivity.
How does it work?
Satellite Internet uses all three satellites to bounce back information. A satellite in geostationary orbit, a number of ground stations known as gateways relaying Internet data to and from the satellite via radio waves and a very-small-aperture terminal dish antenna with a transceiver, located at the subscriber’s premises. Every time you search or request something, it goes to the dish in space and then to the provider’s hub and vice versa. Everything is sent through a satellite signal. The satellites use a two-way satellite Internet service using Internet protocol multi-casting technology which allows up 5,000 channels of communication to be transmitted at the same time by a single satellite.
What’s in it for you?
High Availability. Unlike DSL and cable Internet, satellite Internet is easy and accessible almost anywhere across the US. This even includes mountains and desert regions where cables cannot be accessed.
Constant Internet Connection. Since this type of Internet is satellite-based, the connection is never cut-off. This means the service will not be affected if there is an interruption with a phone connection or a cable television service.
Easy Installation. Setting up a satellite is way easier than cable Internet. The only things you need to install are a satellite dish and a computer. After that, you’re ready to access the world wide web.
Speed. This type of internet service offers fast Internet speeds, even in rural or remote areas where other forms of broadband are not available.
