Fully resourced and trained teams of riggers to install and commission all major suppliers radio and optical transmission equipment, providing documented frequency and tributary management records as part of the acceptance procedures. Transmission planning, including compression, timeslot grooming and cross connection for expanding networks is offered as part of a full range of transmission services.
There are three ways to deliver bandwidth via satellite, each with their advantages and disadvantages. These are:
• Geostationary earth orbit satellites (GEO) • Medium earth orbit satellites (MEO) • Low earth orbit satellites (LEO).
Key success factors:
• Low latency compared to GEO satellites • High availability • High throughput • Low operating expenditure • Beams are steerable to provide near global uniform coverage • Optimum orbit for maximum efficiency of the fleet • The satellite configuration is easily scalable to address growing demand • O3b’s technology is inherently less susceptible to unfavorable climate interference compared to GEO/MW • Short deployment times. Together with other satellite offerings, O3b still leads the market in terms of ease of deployment. O3b services enable operators to extend networks without long lead times • O3b’s technology is referred to as Fiber Optic in the sky. The technology is considered to have the speed of fiber with the global reach of satellite.
