SCPC is a type of satellite service where the space segment for both the download and upload is dedicated – you will receive exactly what you are paying for 24/7 weather you use it or not, it is there dedicated for you. This type of service is recommended for customers wanting a reliable always on connection, such as for VOICE, VIDEO or for customers who in turn resell this service. This type of service is more costly. DVB or shared broadcast is a type of service where the satellite operator oversells the space segment and you end up sharing it with multiple users – so, if all these users get on at the same time, the service becomes very slow as it is oversold in the first place, if there is nobody on then you have the use of the full bandwidth, so, it becomes very fast. This type of service is less expensive.
