Business Wire
Eutelsat Group (ISIN: FR0010221234 - Euronext Paris / London
Stock Exchange: ETL), and Telstra announce the launch of the
largest rollout of Eutelsat OneWeb Low Earth Orbit (LEO) backhaul
in Australia.
The launch follows the signing of a strategic multi-year
agreement last year that will enable LEO capacity delivered to
Telstra’s most remote mobile customers across Australia to enhance
their experience when using real-time applications such as voice
and video calling.
It follows a successful voice call on-air using Eutelsat
OneWeb’s LEO solution, the first time a satellite backhaul call has
been conducted on a commercial mobile network with a guaranteed
quality level of services in Australia.
More than 300 remote mobile base station sites currently using
satellite backhaul will be connected to Eutelsat OneWeb’s LEO
solution over the next 18 months. The capability will allow Telstra
to expand mobile coverage as it supports new site deployments.
Cyril Dujardin, Co-General Manager of Eutelsat Group’s
Connectivity Business Unit said: “We are delighted to support
Telstra in delivering consistent, leading-edge connectivity to its
customers in Australia, regardless of location. We are honoured to
count Telstra among our most trusted partners, with whom we will
continue to collaborate to test and deploy current and future
technology.”
Iskra Nikolova, Telstra Executive for Network and Technology
added: “Eutelsat OneWeb’s LEO solution will help us improve the
customer experience in regional and remote areas with lower
latency, higher speeds, and a more consistent experience. There’s
also potential for OneWeb, as a backup backhaul solution, to
improve reliability in areas where terrestrial backhaul is
susceptible to natural disasters, and where communities find
themselves in isolation to have a LEO backhaul that guarantees that
level of quality service.”
Australia is one of several markets now fully operational, as
Eutelsat OneWeb completes the roll-out of its ground segment to
enable true global coverage.
