The expanded Intelsat–Eutelsat partnership is intended to enable combined GEO, terrestrial, and OneWeb LEO capabilities to serve networks, government, and mobility sectors.
Eutelsat OneWeb and Intelsat extended their bandwidth agreement into a multi-year deal worth up to $500,000,000 (€461.2 million) over seven years with an initial commitment of $250,000,000.
Intelsat and Eutelsat Group have previously partnered to leverage the OneWeb LEO constellation to offer multi-orbit solutions primarily in commercial aviation.
Quadsat has partnered with Eutelsat Group to define a new method for conducting Earth Station Verification Assistance (ESVA) tests.
Intelsat intends to work closely with Eutelsat’s engineering and business development teams to determine the best path for deploying incremental LEO capabilities.
Quadsat’s measurement technology enables earth station operators to conduct ESVA tests that are recognized by Eutelsat Group as part of the station authorization to operate on its GEO fleet without additional testing.
Eutelsat Group requires submission of technical earth station data and ESVA testing using Eutelsat-approved methods to demonstrate compliance with relevant specifications.
Users of the Quadsat system can conduct the ESVA measurements required by Eutelsat Group’s procedure, including earth station transmit and receive radiation patterns, gain, EIRP, polarization isolation, and G/T.
EUTELSAT 36D provides 18 kW of electric power and has a reduced launch mass of approximately five metric tonnes enabled by Airbus’ Electric Orbit Raising (EOR) capability.
The Airbus-built EUTELSAT 36D geostationary telecommunications satellite was shipped from Toulouse, France to Sanford, Florida, USA on board an Airbus BelugaST (A300-600ST).
EUTELSAT 36D is the 22nd geostationary satellite that Airbus has built for Eutelsat.
Eutelsat ordered the Eutelsat 36D satellite in 2021 to replace Eutelsat 36B before it runs out of fuel in 2026 at 36 degrees East.
The Airbus-built Eutelsat 36D geostationary communications satellite landed in Sanford, Florida on 2024-03-11.
Eutelsat 36B has been providing TV broadcast and government services across Africa, Russia, and Europe for more than 14 years at 36 degrees East.
Airbus previously transported Eutelsat’s Hotbird 0.013 kg from France to the United States on a Beluga in October 2022.
Eutelsat expects to have completed 90% of OneWeb’s ground segment by the end of June 2024 following installation and licensing setbacks.
Eutelsat acquired OneWeb’s LEO constellation in 2023 and now owns both GEO and LEO satellite assets.
