Eutelsat’s new W2A satellite replaces the W1 satellite at 10 degrees East, one of Eutelsat’s long-standing orbital locations and a key position for data and professional video networks. Services have been continuously provided at this location since 1987. W2A more than doubles the amount of Ku-band capacity available at 10 degrees East, while also boosting C-band capacity available through Eutelsat’s fleet for services across Africa. The C-band payload of 10 transponders provides pan-African coverage, extending to India and parts of Asia as well as Latin America, for broadband and telecommunications services.
