24,000 miles
Eutelsat KONNECT is a geostationary satellite: it’s in orbit 24,000 miles above the Earth, which means it is orbiting at the same speed as our planet rotates, so it provides all of the covered zones with a fixed, superfast Internet connection. Technology and human engineering come together to offer high-performance connectivity.
75 Mbps
KONNECT is a High Throughput Satellite (HTS). It beams signal onto several zones to form the konnect coverage area. Average download speeds of up to 75 Mbps can be reached anywhere within this area.
