Satellite Internet refers to a type of internet connection that uses satellite technology to provide high-speed internet access to users. This method involves a satellite in orbit that communicates with satellite dishes installed at users’ locations. The process typically includes sending data from the user’s dish to the satellite, which then relays the information to a ground station connected to the internet, and vice versa for incoming data. Satellite Internet is particularly beneficial in rural or remote areas where traditional broadband infrastructure, such as cable or DSL, may be lacking or unavailable. It can offer higher speeds and broader coverage compared to some terrestrial options, but may also experience latency issues due to the distance the signals must travel to and from the satellite. Additionally, weather conditions can affect signal quality, and data limits may apply.
