A
quartet of new contracts will expand the total Ku-band satellite capacity of
ViaSat Inc.'s global mobility network by more than 60 percent.
ViaSat
will reserve this additional bandwidth for government and general
aviation business growth as well as providing high data rates for
customers in the mobile satellite communications market.
The
current expansion phase is an overlay to ViaSat's mobile network in
important regions around the world. The additional satellite
bandwidth will not only improve baseline broadband performance; it
will also create a foundation for future service plans.
ViaSat
will elaborate on the regional coverage and availability of its
expanded Ku-band satellite capacity within February 2013 at the
earliest.
The
Company recently delivered its 500th VR-12 satellite terminal.
General aviation and government mobility markets have relied upon the
ultra-small aperture system to accomplish “office in the sky”
business applications, while military customers use them for enroute
Command & Control and ISR services.
