November 23, 2021 – Kacific Broadband Satellites has introduced the first Ka-band mobile backhaul service for Internet service providers (ISPs) and telecom operators in Southeast Asia and the Pacific. This will allow operators to extend their network’s range in remote and difficult areas and provide them with an effective way of easing congestion in high-demand urban environments. Mobile backhaul is part of Kacific’s FlexVNO solution set, which delivers dedicated wholesale Ka-band satellite bandwidth to telecom operators, who can then tailor it to meet their customers’ needs. A customized offering, Mobile Backhaul is a transport network solution that connects the core network with cell sites – the radio access network (RAN) – on the mobile network. It delivers a rapidly deployable and cost-effective broadband solution with small, easy-to-install, and simple-to-maintain satellite dishes. That allows mobile operators to flexibly provide 3G and 4G coverage to end users, connecting them to any small cell or regular mobile tower. To mitigate the rain fade effect on the Ka-band technology Kacific has also deployed redundant and multiple gateways, adaptive power control, adaptive modulation and coding, a common tool that uses advanced signal processing algorithms. Kacific’s Mobile Backhaul service was developed and tested in 2020 and has connected key operators in Asia and the Pacific. Now, Kacific has made it commercially available to all ISPs, telecom operators, and government agencies across all the countries it serves through Asia and the Pacific.
