SpaceX’s Starlink and Other Future LEO Services Are Emerging Disruptors to Rural Markets
Incline Village, NEV.– Sept. 10, 2024 – A newly released report by 650 Group, a leading Market Intelligence Research firm for communications, campus, data center, and cloud markets, provides unique insight into the Broadband Satellite Market. The latest report reflects Low Earth Orbit (LEO) Satellite Broadband’s role in complimenting Terrestrial Technologies such as PON, Cable, and FWA.
“SpaceX’s Starlink continues to grow its constellation, and is capable of handling hundreds of broadband users in each cell. As its satellite count grows, it can serve a growing customer base. Other companies, such as Amazon’s Kuiper, are planning to compete with future launches,” said Chris DePuy, Founder and Technology Analyst at 650 Group. “Additionally, many satellites are being launched into orbit in 2024 that are intended primarily for direct-to-cell (D2C) service, enabling terrestrial cellular operators to curtail spending in rural areas. A few LEO broadband companies, including Starlink, are launching satellites that can serve both broadband service and D2C, which we expect will benefit from increased satellite utilization.”
The Quarterly Satellite Broadband report includes segmentation on CPE devices and subscriber data for Low Earth Orbit (LEO) and Geostationary Orbit (GEO) offerings. Future reports will consist of additional segmentation and companies. Current vendors included in the report include AST Space Mobile, Echostar, Starlink, and Viasat.
