The delivery of OTT services to remote subscribers presents a major challenge for service providers and telcos. Combine this with network congestion and the situation can become unviable.

According to EKT, satellite presents the ideal solution to these challenges. The ability to transport high bitrates to the network edge, with multicasting performance and smart pre-positioning of content makes satellite a highly sought-after alternative delivery medium.
