SES Awards & Publications
SES is the top innovator in the Satellite Broadband Connectivity Providers competitive ranking, claiming an industry-first in multi-orbit satellite infrastructure with a 54-satellite strong GEO fleet and the new O3b mPOWER fleet in MEO. SES-17, its newest Kaband HTS, can adopt O3b mPOWER as demand shifts and allows for an interoperable multi-orbit satellite network. Combined with the company’s proprietary Adaptive Resource Controller (ARC), a software solution that serves as the brain for the network to enable dynamic and automatic traffic allocation in real time, as well as orbit switching for complete interoperability between SES’s MEO system and the GEO satellite, SES can supply capacity and connectivity for premium market segments.
SES has positioned itself as a leader in the Satellite Broadband Connectivity Providers competitive ranking. This is largely in part because SES is a distributor of high-throughput connectivity services for power users, such as public cloud operators AWS and Microsoft Azure, and the U.S. government. SES provides some of the most resilient and flexible network capabilities in the market to move vast amounts of data. SES is innovating in various operational orbits with interoperable multi-orbit infrastructure in MEO and GEO, while deploying next-generation flexible, beamforming, SDSs. With SES’s capabilities to support data-intensive customers across a variety of domains, ABI Research considers the company to be the leader in enterprise connectivity.
