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.
