VSAT (Very Small Aperture Terminal), also known as satellite internet, is a connectivity solution that uses a satellite dish to deliver internet access. It does not rely on ground-based infrastructure, making it ideal for locations where traditional internet services such as Fibre, LTE, or wireless networks are unavailable.
Unlike traditional services, VSAT performs reliably even in areas with physical obstacles like trees, mountains, or rugged terrain.
While VSAT typically offers slower speeds than conventional internet, making it less ideal for activities like high-definition streaming or video conferencing, it excels in maintaining connectivity where other options fail.
It's widely used by businesses as a dependable backup solution, remaining unaffected by local network outages or infrastructure failures. VSAT is a proven way to ensure business continuity and communications in remote and high-risk environments.
