As we enter 2025 after a year of rapid and defining change in the satellite industry, make sure you pay attention to the ‘New Year Resolutions for Operators’ from neXat and prioritize efficiency, virtualization, growth and new revenue for your networks this year.
DON’T waste time, effort and money when managing your networks
Operational complexity and increased technical demands on operators are a reality because of new LEO constellations, multi-orbit architectures, and hybrid satellite-terrestrial solutions. Managing diverse hubs, satellite bands, and services with legacy systems is inefficient and limits scalability, profitability and innovation.
To avoid unnecessary cost pressures in a competitive landscape, operators should avoid being bogged down by operational expenditures and instead find ways to automate and simplify operations.
DO embrace virtualization to improve network efficiency and flexibility
Much of the satcom ground segment is still made up of hardware systems and proprietary legacy architectures that are no longer the most efficient or cost-effective means to serve the newer generation of satellites. The ground segment needs to develop towards a software-based infrastructure that can deliver advanced and flexible communications.
Integrating multiple hubs, regardless of location or manufacturer, into a unified virtualized platform can eliminate the need for separate infrastructure, simplify operations, and enable centralized control and management both for operators and their customers.
DO integrate your satellite network seamlessly with other networks
Thanks to standardized OpenAPI that you can expose to your customers and other networks, satellite operators can easily integrate their satellite networks with networks of other satellite or terrestrial operators opening new business opportunities.
DON’T miss opportunities to offer new services to customers
For operators to differentiate their offerings and unlock new revenue, the ability to provide new services is crucial. With a dedicated platform, operators can easily extend services or integrate new satellites and technologies without disrupting existing operations, ensuring flexibility and adaptability.
As well as automating operations such as payments, invoicing and monitoring, new services can be offered through neXat including traffic shaping capabilities and bandwidth management optimization services, offering contended or volume-based services and flexible VNO features.
DO scale your networks with a trusted platform
Multi-orbit connectivity is becoming more in-demand to meet the enhanced requirements of users. A platform that supports the integration of GEO, MEO, and LEO satellites can enable operators to scale their networks to include emerging multi-orbit constellations and technologies. And through advanced bandwidth optimization and flexible VNO capabilities, operators can scale their service offerings to meet changing customer needs, including expanding coverage to underserved regions.
And, finally, DO rely on the only OSS/BSS made by satellite experts for the satellite industry
Major satellite operator Arabsat deployed neXat across its fleet, enabling centralized management of multiple hubs, reducing operational overhead, and accelerating service rollouts by 30%.
Operators using neXat also report OPEX reductions of up to 40% thanks to automation and centralized management. The platform has also enabled operators to improve customer satisfaction due to enhanced service capabilities and reliability, and neXat’s plug-and-play nature has been commended for its quick go-to-market advantage.
