What is IPSTAR?
With more than 200,000 satisfied customers in the Asia-Pacific Region, IPSTAR® is the leader of satellite broadband in Asia-Pacific. IPSTAR is one of the world’s largest and most advanced broadband satellites. It is also the first of a new generation of broadband satellites that act both as an Internet backbone connection to fibre-optic cables for ISPs and as a last-mile broadband Internet service to residential, commercial and wholesale customers, competing directly with ADSL and wireless infrastructure. The IPSTAR broadband satellite has a massive bandwidth capacity of 45 Gbps, almost equivalent to all other satellites serving Asia today. The service is delivered via a gateway earth station (located in Jakarta) that communicates over the IPSTAR satellite to provide broadband packet-switched communications to any of the terrestrial ISP links.
