Satellite Operators and Telcos Are Teaming Up. Here’s What That Might Mean for Enterprise Networks.

The Latin American Satellite Congress held in Rio de Janeiro at the end of September provided a great opportunity to engage with some of the largest satellite communication companies in the world.

Looking back, there was one common theme that stood out: collaboration.

As we at TeleGeography have noted many times, the vast majority of global connectivity passes through submarine cables. But satellite networks are growing ever more important, both as complements to terrestrial systems and as last resorts for where it is hard (or expensive) to lay fiber.

For enterprises, that means a hybrid Wide Area Network (WAN) combining satellite and terrestrial connectivity is increasingly relevant.

Africa Update: More Cables, Less Dependency on Europe

When Senior Research Manager Patrick Christian returned to the African Peering and Interconnection Forum this year, he did not come empty-handed.

Tucked into his suitcase—or, more accurately, safely stored in the cloud—was Patrick’s keynote presentation, a brand new African Network Geography Update.

Watch the recording below to explore global network trends, African bandwidth trends, localized content growth, and end-user demand.

You’ll also hear a bit about 2Africa and what we can expect when the cable system comes online.

One World, Two Networks?

Last week, Research Director Alan Mauldin unveiled yet another show-stopping presentation at Submarine Networks World.

This time around, Alan dove into the “Subsea Cold War” between China and the U.S. to assess its impact on the submarine cable industry.

What To Expect at Capacity Europe 2023

Need a little preparation yourself?

Discover the Tangible Effects of the “Subsea Cold War”

The geopolitical struggle between China and the U.S. has had a major impact on the submarine cable industry.

Many cables have experienced regulatory delays, and governments are seeking to influence the routing of new cables and the choice of cable suppliers.

Are we headed into a future with two separate networks—one U.S.-backed and the other China-backed?

For this year's Submarine Networks World keynote session, TeleGeography Research Director Alan Mauldin will focus on the tangible effects this so-called “Subsea Cold War” is having on network deployment, interconnection hubs, and capacity pricing.

AI and Supply Chains and Edge, Oh My!

ICYMI, last week we kicked off our Know Before You Go broadcast series with a behind-the-scenes look at Datacloud USA 2023.
