7. What if You Could…
Install technology today, knowing that it was future-proof?
Be guaranteed to receive reliable, consistent coverage regardless of demand or location?
Install next-generation technology at a fraction of the time and investment as traditional VSAT systems?

8. Intelsat Network with EpicNG Assisting Operators:
To utilize Intelsat’s Ku-band wide beam coverage today…
To add Intelsat EpicNG high throughput coverage services launching in 2015
And since all of this technology runs on open architecture standards, it’s easy to preserve your existing infrastructure investments. You can stick with your preferred platform, without ever having to rip and replace equipment in order to enhance network performance.
To enhance network performance while reducing equipment outlays

9. Intelsat: Combined Coverage and Performance
Ensures high-quality connectivity where it is needed
Gives ability to increase bandwidth needs as vessel traffic scales
Provides built-in redundancy through 50+ satellites and steady launch manifest

10. Maritime Traffic Distribution is Not Uniform…

11. Maritime Traffic – Actual Capacity Requirements
But if we look at maritime traffic over a one-month period, we see heavy usage among main routes, meaning many ships are competing for the bandwidth in the already challenged beam infrastructure….

14. Epic Ku spots are smaller than HTS Ka spots.
What Makes EpicNG Different? High Power Densities allow More Bandwidth, Smaller Beams
Despite Frequency Differences:
Epic Ku spots are smaller than HTS Ka spots.
& Smaller Spots = Higher Energy Densities
Epic: 1.3° -1.6° spot beams ?
Ka HTS: ~2.0° spot beams

15. EpicNG Capability vs. Other Global HTS Networks
Other Upcoming Global HTS Networks
EpicNG is designed to handle a variety of remote terminals across the vertical market spectrums – operating concurrently to various customer CIRs and Mbps service plans
Total = 5Mbps
Total = 270Mbps

16. Intelsat EpicNG Ecosystem
