Satellite Connectivity – Technical Specifications
-
Zero One delivers broadband connectivity via a Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite constellation consisting of 600+ satellites operating at approximately 1,200 km altitude across 12 synchronised orbital planes.
The constellation architecture enables:
Reduced propagation delay compared to GEO systems
Continuous global coverage through orbital handoff
Multi-beam spot coverage with frequency reuse
Dynamic traffic routing through terrestrial gateway infrastructure
The system integrates into global fibre backbone networks via strategically positioned ground gateway stations.
-
Typical Service Profiles (Enterprise Grade):
Downlink throughput: 150–195 Mbps per terminal (service tier dependent)
Uplink throughput: up to 30 Mbps
Round-trip latency: <70 ms (typical)
Network availability: ≥99.9% (subject to SLA tier)
Total system capacity: >1.1 Tbps aggregate
Low latency enables support for:
SD-WAN environments
Real-time cloud applications
VoIP and unified communications
Secure VPN and encrypted tunnels
Remote operations and telemetry
-
