The Economic Necessity for Satellite Broadband
Households per Square Mile
Penetration
Broadband satellite infrastructure investment is the same across all densities. It is the most economic technology to deploy at lower household densities
Terrestrial broadband infrastructure deployment costs increase dramatically as household density falls
Wireline is economic at densities above ~70 households per square mileSlide4
Broadband Satellite –
A Key Component to Rural Coverage
It’s available where you live: Anywhere in the country – no matter how remote
It’s available today: No new infrastructure build-out requirement
It’s fast, secure, reliable High-throughput satellites have dramatically changed the landscape
We are going to more than double the available capacity in the next 3 yearsSatellite broadband is the most cost-effective solution for less densely populated areasThe Satellite Broadband Industry should be included in any program aimed at encouraging the deployment of broadband infrastructure.
