According to an article, National Broadband Network Co-chief executive officer, Mike Quigley has revealed plans to construct and launch 2 x $500 million dollar satellites into orbit to deliver National Broadband Network services of at least 12 Megabits to Australian Households that could take up to four years to be made.
A satellite can be of service to 200,000 premises, transmitting way more than enough bandwidth to service those outside the NBN’s fibre network. However, a further satellite was required for redundancy purposes. They also believe that the proposed NBN Satellite Network could also service those who live outside the main area around major metropolitan regions where access or difficult terrain could prevent fibre rollouts, as well as those in remote areas.
Putting up a project like this is a very excellent move. The world is changing fast and satellites should not be left behind. If it stagnates, the world will surely slow down.
