VSAT Market PotentialThe development of new communications technologies, such as Internet and its associated applications, has given rise to a significant demand for access to broadband data communications service. The alternative to terrestrial technologies is wireless broadband provided by satellites. VSAT are distance-insensitive and terrain-indifferent, which allow provision of high-speed access to homes and commercial enterprises.
The VSAT market is evolving. Globalization, hybridization and convergence are well underway. And new opportunities are emerging such as turnkey service-based business; increased concentration on solutions rather than connectivity and bandwidth; and the inclusion of VSAT as an essential part of comprehensive telecom portfolios. VSAT markets are vast. They include, for instance, Corporate, Industrial, Government, Rural/Agricultural, Marine, Aeronautical and Global Consumer (in convenience stores or cinemas). An emerging market market segment that VSAT companies should be targeting is Small-to-Medium sized enterprises (SMEs).
