Satellites communications for Education

Ensuring proper education for all members of a society is of great importance. Governments, organizations, and private companies all have roles to play in schools, and schools may be run by any of or a combination of these groups. Today, it is generally accepted that internet access is necessary, or at least highly beneficial for effective education. With much of the world now relying on electronics and the internet, it is only logical for schools to adopt technology into their curriculum to help teach individuals about their use. Technology can also be used to enhance learning in almost every subject; an internet connection allows students to gather information rapidly and use it as needed. Unfortunately, internet access is still not available in many parts of the world, and education often suffers as a result. Satellite internet technology, which is offered by UStronics, can help to overcome this challenge and provide students with the resources they need to succeed.

            VSAT’s, particularly fixed VSAT’s, are likely the best option for providing internet access to a school. Fixed VSAT’s do take time to set up and install, but their large bandwidth’s make up for it. School buildings don’t move, so while a fly-away or drive-away VSAT is undoubtedly an option for schools, fixed VSAT’s may be the best choice in the long run. UStronics offers fixed VSAT’s that can fulfill the internet needs of schools, as well as drive-away and fly-away VSAT’s, like the Explorer 8100 and Explorer 3075. Any VSAT offered by UStronics is of high quality and will be a valuable asset for schools to help educate their students.

            Mobile terminals are another option for providing internet to schools. Mobile terminals are small and easy to set up, although they do tend to have lower bandwidths than VSAT’s, making them best suited for small classrooms or groups of students. UStronics offers a wide selection of mobile terminals that can be easily adapted for use, including the Iridium Certus and Inmarsat Explorer 710. These mobile terminals, along with others offered by UStronics, can provide adequate internet access to small groups of students, allowing them to use the internet for educational purposes like research or sending documents. With UStronics’s vast array of satellite internet products, schools can ensure their students have access to the internet no matter where they are located.
