Virtual Satellite Networks

Vertical service providers and satellite service providers share the same problem: how do they embed satellite connectivity into their solutions to deliver incredible user experiences to their customers? With large user bases with unique needs, it may make more sense for the service provider to benefit from the assurance and flexibility of a virtual satellite network with a Viasat connectivity lease.

Many early stage satellite IoT service providers find it problematic to gain the funding to launch their own satellite constellations, look after their satellites in-life and efficiently manage their end-of-life. There are additional problems: only a very well-funded few are likely to be able cover the entire earth with their constellations, and if you put satellites in orbit, they need to have filled capacity or they represent a bad investment. It is difficult to ‘right-size’ growth and large-scale CapEx outlays are not encouraged in growth mode.

Focus on the other areas that will help differentiate your service rather than the connectivity and leave the satellite infrastructure management to experts with years of experience. A provider who can help you design the network you need and look after it, while you look after your customers.
