LEO satellites deliver fiber-like connectivity performance to
areas that have been inaccessible via terrestrial options.
Businesses, local governments, schools, healthcare providers and
resource developers need high speed, low latency connections to
keep up with growing demands, like video conferencing, telehealth,
cloud computing and more.
Alaska Communications recently announced that it will supply
Bristol Bay Telephone Cooperative, Inc. with LEO services to
improve connectivity to its facilities and residents in the area,
enabling dynamic opportunities that weren’t available before.
“We’re pleased to expand our offerings and help enable LEO
services in Alaska,” said Bill Bishop, president and CEO of Alaska
Communications. “We’re known for creating custom solutions to meet
our customers’ needs. We see this as a milestone moment in our
ability to serve our customers and connect the under
connected.”
