Skynet X-Band Service
Skynet 5 X-band constellation has been designed specifically
to support smaller, low-powered tactical terminals deployed across multiple
theatres of operation and in particular operations in
harsh and remote locations. It has the advantage of being highly resistant to
rain interference, unlike Ku and Ka-band. This makes Skynet X-band
suitable for U.S. government and military customers who need to support rapid
deployments over a large geographic area or need high-speed transmissions from
small land, sea or airborne terminals. For critical command
communications, Special Operations Forces, missile defense units and other
users whose service must not be interrupted, our Skynet 5 X-band satellites are
military hardened and have jam-resistant capacity ensuring secure communications.
Military and government users are also assured of non-preemptible bandwidth to
support their security requirements and for mission success.
