Re: [Exede] Discussion: Current Status Wednesday January 23, 201 said by silbaco:When a company gets as big as ViaSat, the cost of buying more backhaul from a Tier-1 is pocket change.
Ballpark OC-48 rate from one provider, which is enough for one legacy Gateway, runs around $59,999.00/month.

Using a Cisco demon would pay for itself before end of first year of usage....no brainer...and money talks! |
| $60k/month is pocket change to a company growing as fast as ViaSat, projected to make well of $1bil this fiscal year. However keep in mind the more bandwidth you buy, the cheaper it becomes so we have no way of knowing the exact cost of their bandwidth needs. However an OC-48 wouldn't suffice for bandwidth needed for ViaSat-1. |
