Under this multi-year, multi-million agreement, the mining sector users will be able to benefit from the cutting-edge low-latency Onshore Energy and Mining mPOWERED connectivity service.
SES's Onshore Energy and Mining mPOWERED service will provide the highest throughput available from a satellite system and deliver dedicated and carrier-grade networks to AXESS' customers reliably regardless of their remote locations.
O3b mPOWER can deliver up to multiple gigabits per second per site, enabling AXESS' customers to accelerate the digitalisation of their operations and sites globally, boosting profitability through access to new applications and efficiency, as well as improving staff safety and welfare.
SES's second-generation MEO connectivity service also brings the Cloud closer to the end customers and can enable edge computing to support the use of 5G and IoT in the mining industry.
Simon GattySaunt, Vice President of Networks Sales, Europe, at SES, said, "Transition towards smart mining is already turbocharging profits, and revolutionising industry's environmental and societal impact. We are proud of the success our partnership with AXESS has already had in facilitating this change, thanks to our multi-orbit GEO and MEO network, and are excited to further accelerate it with the O3b mPOWER service."
Guido Neumann, President AXESS EMEA said, "This agreement builds on a long and successful relationship with SES, which has helped us to provide our customers with the best-in-class, reliable and resilient connectivity for their operations.
"As we are seeing a considerable uptake in demand for the carrier-grade solutions globally, but especially in the EMEA and APAC region, we are honoured to play an active role in scaling the digital transition in the mining sector through introducing O3b mPOWER and the Onshore Energy and Mining mPOWERED service."
