CellBackhaul Ready

Deliver Coverage Where – and When – Your Customers Need It

Cellular networks help keep people connected while they’re on the move. But traditional fiber- and microwave-connected sites aren’t flexible enough to move from location to location when new demand pops up.

Perfect for cell-on-wheels deployments, CellBackhaul Ready combines the end-to-end managed CellBackhaul concept, broad satellite coverage across wide regions, and flexible billing to allow you to drop in temporary cellular services to meet short-term demand.

Seasonal Demand

Shift capacity to address needs as seasons change. Extra resources at the ski mountain in the winter can become additional capacity for seaside demand in the summer.

Disaster Recovery

As part of disaster preparedness planning, incorporate Intelsat on-demand backhaul with transportable tower infrastructure (and even portable comms-on-the-pause services) to quickly enable communications services for both first responders and impacted communities.

Festivals and Events

Big crowd gatherings mean big spikes in network demand. Intelsat satellite backhaul moves with you from event to event, weekend to weekend – or just put it on standby until the next big gathering rolls around.
