Can “Non-Type-Approved VSATs” access the Eutelsat space segment?
Yes. However VSAT networks usually comprise hundreds or even thousands of VSATs. Therefore in order to roll out a large VSAT network on the Eutelsat space segment it is strongly recommended in order to pro-actively avoid interferences to other services, that the VSATs be type approved and if this is not the case, that the VSATs to be deployed be fully characterized and measurements results be made available to Eutelsat.
