 bear73Metnav... Fly The Unfriendly SkiesPremium join:2001-06-09 Grand Forks Afb, ND | from the JAXA website... "KIZUNA satellite communication system aims for a maximum speed of 155Mbps (receiving) / 6Mbps (transmitting) for households with 45-centimetre aperture antennas (the same size as existing Communications Satellite antennas), and ultra-high speed 1.2 Gbps communication for offices with five-meter antennas." It is satellite, but there is no mention of latency (lag)... but keep in mind, this is intended for fat-pipe usage and rural areas where there is nothing else available AND during disasters (like typhoons and earthquakes they get there frequently)
This is an awesome thing!
I hope OUR country looks seriously at this implementation. For regions with nothing better, this is awesome. -- If ya gotta go, Go with a SMILE! »www.thereligionofpeace.com/ |
