Communications and network service provider SpeedCast International has teamed up with satellite operator SES Networks to bring increased internet capacity to parts of Peru. Under the terms of the deal, Speedcast will tap into SES’s O3b constellation to deliver “fibre-like” capacity to mobile network operators (MNOs) and enterprise customers in areas of Peru where high performance internet is in high demand and short supply, said the partners.
The deal is the fourth Medium Earth Orbit (MEO) capacity partnership between Speedcast and SES Networks and the first in Latin America.
