Eutelsat Communications S.A. is a global satellite telecommunications operator headquartered in France. The company manages a combined fleet of geostationary (GEO) and low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites to provide capacity for video broadcasting, broadband, and data connectivity. It operates primarily as a wholesaler, selling satellite links to broadcasters, telecom operators, internet service providers, and government agencies worldwide. Eutelsat's operations are divided into two main segments: Video, which distributes thousands of television channels and accounts for nearly half of its revenue, and Connectivity, which encompasses fixed broadband, mobile connectivity for aviation and maritime markets, and government services. Following its 2023 merger with OneWeb, Eutelsat became a fully integrated multi-orbit satellite operator, allowing it to offer high-throughput, low-latency services. The company's infrastructure is critical for delivering communications to remote and underserved regions where terrestrial networks are economically or technically unfeasible.
