PSN orders Indonesia-focused satellite from Boeing for 2023 launch – SpaceNews
WASHINGTON — Indonesia’s Pasifik Satelit Nusantara (PSN) claimed March 23 it has requested a superior-throughput satellite from Boeing to launch on a SpaceX Falcon 9 in 2023.
The Nusantara Lima Satellite aims to provide 160 gigabits for every next (Gbps) of capacity throughout the Indonesian archipelago and bordering nations around the world.
PSN reported the satellite will augment capacity on the SATRIA-1 satellite Thales Alenia Area is setting up for a start in 2023, which together would make it a person of the most significant satellite capability companies in Asia.
“This challenge reveals that inspite of the pandemic circumstance, the acceleration of electronic transformation continues to be formulated in giving connectivity across the Indonesian Archipelago,” claimed Johnny G. Plate, Indonesia’s Minister of Communications and Informatics.
Plate reported Nusantara Lima Satellite will offer 140 Gbps of capacity over Indonesia.
About 80 Gbps will be applied by BAKTI, an Indonesian authorities company, for what it phone calls Very hot Backup Satellite (HBS) to provide products and services to distant places in Indonesia the place terrestrial communications are unavailable.
Plate claimed “the balance of 20 Gbps will be serving Malaysia and the Philippines.”
Boeing, which shipped Indonesia’s very first telecoms satellite Palapa A1 in 1976, stated the satellite will be primarily based on its 702MP platform.
Kratos and Hughes Network Systems are amid the floor phase suppliers for the Nusantara Lima network, PSN mentioned.
Thales Alenia Room announced Oct. 28 it is making one more Indonesian satellite dubbed HTS 113BT for Telkomsat, a subsidiary of Indonesian condition-owned telecoms operator Telkom, for a 2024 shipping and delivery.
HTS 113BT aims to fill a gap still left by the loss of the Nusantara-2 satellite in a 2020 Chinese launch failure.
