Satellite Internet

Satellite Internet is a type of internet connection that uses satellite technology to facilitate access to the web. Data is transmitted to and from a satellite orbiting the Earth, which relays the information to and from a ground station connected to the internet. This technology enables users in remote or rural areas, where traditional broadband options may be limited or unavailable, to access the internet. Satellite Internet typically involves the use of a satellite dish installed at the user’s location, allowing for two-way communication with the satellite. While it can provide internet access where other options are sparse, satellite internet may have higher latency and lower speeds compared to terrestrial internet methods, such as DSL or fiber optics, due to the distance the signals must travel.
