Related Topics: Viasat, Inc.

In today’s world, internet connectivity is a necessity for both individuals and businesses. The demand for reliable and high-speed internet has led to the development of various technologies, one of which is VSAT. VSAT, which stands for Very Small Aperture Terminal, is a satellite-based communication technology that provides internet connectivity to remote areas where terrestrial connectivity is not available or is unreliable.

One of the critical factors to consider when choosing a VSAT connection is the data capacity. Data capacity refers to the amount of data that can be transmitted over the connection within a specific period. The data capacity of a VSAT connection is determined by several factors, including the satellite’s bandwidth, the VSAT equipment’s capabilities, and the network architecture.
