Thanks
to a strategic commercial agreement between Arabsat and EMC, the
Badr-7 satellite will carry the world's first multi-purpose Ka-band
hosted payload into space when it launches in 2015.
The
EMC-designed hosted payload can access
the entire Ka-band spectrum.
Its high throughput data rates will support
multiple
applications like two-way direct-to-home broadband services and
direct-to-tower wireless distribution for 3G and LTE operators. These
satellite services will be available to customers in the consumer and
carrier sectors, including the new triple play over satellite market.
The
Arabsat Badr-7 Ka-band satellite is based on the reliable
EuroStar-3000 platform. It will occupy the Arabsat premium orbital
location (Hot Spot) at 26 East and deliver various satellite services
to customers in 34 countries throughout Africa, Central Asia, Europe,
and the Middle East.
