Two Problems w/ Satellite

There is a whole industry –outside of satellite -providing products, like AcceleNet,

to overcome high latency, low bandwidth, problematic network connections

Very High Capacity SATCOM

Conventional Broadcast centric Broadest reach Broad antenna

beams Flexible services Ground

“conformity” Key unit:

“transponder”

ViaSat-1 Data centric High demand

markets Small “spot” beams Unicast, regional Ground “optimized” Key unit “Gbps”

Satellites designed for a different MISSION

Today’s Commercial Ka-band Capacity Is Over 10x Military Ka-band …

Commercial Broadband, Ka-band Satellite Evolution

Broadband Performance: 1.5 Mbps forward link, 256 Kbps return link,

hundreds of thousands of subscribers

Wildblue Service•$49 / month satellite broadband•WildBlue began Jun ’05, Telesat Canada began Jun ’05•Fastest growing satellite consumer broadband ever

-400,000 net customers in 2 ½ years - Shipped 35,000 terminals/month - Total terminal price approximately $350 ea

… with ViaSat-1 to Provide 100 Gbps!

The Future with ViaSat-1 and Beyond

Literally millions of broadband satellite subscribers in US, Europe & globallyLeveraged for the government markets just

like most things ViaSat has done in the past Secure for all Applications

Voice, Video, Client/Server data All you can eat

Bandwidth changes from scarce to plentiful, from expensive to affordable

Any time, any whereNow that sounds like the GIG
