LEO Satellite Connectivity via Starlink

KT SAT distributes Starlink LEO satellite connectivity as an authorized partner, delivering high-speed, low-latency internet access to locations beyond the reach of terrestrial networks. With latency under 50ms and speeds comparable to terrestrial broadband, the service fills coverage gaps that KT SAT’s own GEO fleet cannot address with the same performance characteristics.

Key use cases include maritime vessels requiring high-speed crew internet and real-time operational communications, construction and mining sites needing consistent data links for remote equipment management, disaster recovery scenarios where terrestrial infrastructure is damaged, and smart agriculture IoT applications requiring always-on connectivity for autonomous farming equipment.

KT SAT layers its own value-added services on top of the Starlink connection, including local technical support, customer portal access, and bundled KT Group services. This combination of Starlink’s global LEO network and KT SAT’s ground infrastructure and local expertise delivers a fully managed LEO connectivity solution.

This service reflects KT SAT’s strategic expansion into multi-orbit connectivity, enabling the company to address a broader range of customer latency, throughput, and coverage requirements beyond what GEO satellites alone can deliver.
