Out of Sight, Out of Mind.
Though 22,300 miles (35,786 kilometers) from sight, SES AMERICOM satellites are already responsible for many of the communications functions that Americans rely on today.
Many financial institutions rely on our satellites to complete everyday card-swipe transactions at the gas pump, ATM or grocery store.
Some television programming delivered by cable companies is first distributed via our satellites.
And, satellite technology is more recently making news with many major airlines offering in flight broadband via satellite to their passengers.
The maritime industry utilizes high-speed Internet connectivity delivered via AMERICOM satellite technology, enabling both passengers and crew on cruise ships and yachts to make Voice over Internet (VoIP) phone calls from ship to shore or check email from the middle of the ocean.
And, corporations or telecommunication service providers seeking to expand, extend and ensure their networking capabilities -- especially remote and off shore commercial data networks -- seek SES AMERICOM’s highly scalable, secure, flexible, and cost-effective satellite communications solutions.
