Viasat Satellite Network

"Viasat is satcom without compromise for organizations that drive the world's production and supply chains."

Connect anyone. Control anything. Secure everything.

Viasat’s global mobile satellite telecommunications networks sustain business and mission-critical safety and operational applications for companies and organisations worldwide. They have led the way in global mobile satellite communications for over 40 years.

In May 2023, Viasat purchased Inmarsat; the combined company operates over 19 satellites in Ka-, L- and S- bands; we’re most interested in what was the Inmarsat L-band service, as this is the best radio frequency for IoT applications. It’s the network upon which IoT Nano, IoT Pro, Go-anywhere Pro, and the new Orbcomm OGx service depends.

“Viasat’s broad range of voice and data satellite communication services delivers global coverage on land, at sea and in the air.

It supports mission-critical business and government applications as well as essential maritime and aviation services.”

Enterprise Services

Viasat understands the mobile land markets like no other satellite operator. Whether you require mission critical connectivity, remote communications, or IoT monitoring, Viasat provides reliable, industry-leading mobile satellite connectivity, wherever it’s needed.

Emerging digital technologies are changing the way industries respond to global challenges such as discovering new energy sources and increasing food production. But some of the locations best placed to benefit from these smart technologies are remote and lacking in terrestrial connectivity.

Organizations who grow, mine, extract, and then transport goods or materials trust Viasat to keep them connected and help them to respond to challenges and succeed in the new era of the connected world.
