[Satellite TODAY 05-10-13] Eutelsat Communications has announced an agreement with Slovenia’s Telekom Slovenije to offer high-speed satellite broadband to the almost 90,000 homes that remain unserved by broadband networks in rural areas of the country. The new consumer satellite broadband service provided by Eutelsat’s KA-SAT satellite will operate with a small (77cm) satellite dish and modem.
Eutelsat’s KA-SAT has a total capacity of 90 Gbps for satellite-delivered broadband services across Europe and the Mediterranean Basin. The satellite is part of a communications infrastructure that includes an on-ground network of eight main gateways across Europe connected to the Internet by a fiber backbone ring.
"High speed internet access has become an essential service for consumers, providing access to education, entertainment and public services. This agreement ensures that our customers, wherever they live in the country, will be able to access reliable, high speed broadband services," Simon Furlan, director of marketing at Telekom Slovenije said in a statement.
