SES and Gilat are expanding their partnership with a multi-million-dollar follow-on order for high-speed modems. Gilat’s modems will deliver multi Gbps throughput, targeting high-end services over SES’s O3b and O3b mPOWER MEO constellations. Gilat’s high-throughput modems will support SES in delivering fiber-equivalent services for government and high-end enterprise solutions.
