SpaceX has the most internet-beaming satellites in its constellation, but the competition is coming, and now Jeff Bezos\u2019 space company, Blue Origin, has announced<\/a> the TeraWave<\/a> network. It says TeraWave will offer bandwidth of up to 6Tb available anywhere on Earth, for both upload and download.<\/p>\n

The only wrinkle? Even after satellite deployments are scheduled to start near the end of 2027, you probably won\u2019t be able to connect directly. That\u2019s by design, as former Amazon Alexa boss and current Blue Origin CEO Dave Limp<\/a> said in a post<\/a> that it\u2019s \u201cpurpose-built for enterprise customers.\u201d<\/p>\n

Blue Origin\u2019s network has a \u201cmulti-orbit\u201d design of 5,408 optically connected satellites. While most of them will be in low-Earth orbit and connect to customers on the ground via regular wireless connections at up to 144Gbps, it will also have 128 satellites in medium-Earth orbit that offer the possibility of 6Tb bidirectional connections.<\/p>\n

However, unlike Starlink and Amazon\u2019s fledgling Leo satellite internet network<\/a>, the company is planning to connect a maximum of about 100,000 customers, not millions, with plans to target \u201ctens of thousands of enterprise, data center, and government users who require reliable connectivity for critical operations.\u201d At the moment, Amazon is also looking at the enterprise sector with its Leo Ultra antennas<\/a> that promise 1Gbps downloads and 400Mbps uploads, while Starlink<\/a> is looking to roll out gigabit speeds this year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"SpaceX has the most internet-beaming satellites in its constellation, but the competition is coming, and now Jeff Bezos\u2019…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":534016,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[2431,64,50,159,783,2527,242,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-534015","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-business","8":"tag-amazon","9":"tag-business","10":"tag-news","11":"tag-science","12":"tag-space","13":"tag-spacex","14":"tag-tech","15":"tag-united-states","16":"tag-unitedstates","17":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115937488617799949","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/534015","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=534015"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/534015\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/534016"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=534015"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=534015"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=534015"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
