Get ahead of industry change: A new era of secure, multi-gigabit, cloud-enabled connectivity
As today’s viewers hop between screens, both big and small, broadcasters are finding life a little less simple. Audience attention is split between traditional television, streaming services and social media, and it is cheaper than ever for competitors to enter the market. With a reach of 366M+ TV households and connection to over 1 billion people, SES provides a comprehensive portfolio of end-to-end managed video solutions for broadcasters, platform operators, sports organizations, and media companies, with unparalleled reach and reliability.
This year in Cape Town, you will get to see a real O3b mPOWER terminal as we prepare to launch next-level connectivity. O3b mPOWER is the newest Medium Earth Orbit (MEO) satellite constellation in our multi-orbit ecosystem, enabling you to design a future-proof network strategy without the limitations of capacity, speed, or reach.
Think low end-to-end latency, ultra-high-throughput connections direct form any remote site to your cloud service provider or core network, bringing your teams together like never before. This is what our next-generation MEO constellation, O3b mPOWER, will bring to the world’s leading industries.
Meet the SES team at Africa Tech Festival 2022 to learn more about our solutions and uncover what drives SES, the world's only multi-orbit satellite player.
