Satellite telecommunications provider SES is hoping that its Medium Earth Orbit (MEO) satellite technology will be considered by the Department of Information and Communications Technology for the national digital inclusion programs that it will deploy next year.
Satellite operator SES announced that the improved connectivity services of their next-generation Medium Earth Orbit (MEO) satellites will be available in the Philippines by Q1 2023. These satellites can deliver more than 1 gigabit of capacity to any site in the country with a relatively low latency of 150 milliseconds while relying on only one gateway.
Dennis Uy-owned ComClark Network and Technology Corporation has announced that it has signed up satellite operator SES to deliver content to over 2,000 remote schools across the country via high-speed satellite-based connectivity.
The cost of the additional six channels won’t be charged to subscribers and Direct-to-Home operators because an advertising-based model will be used to offer the new content.
