April 11, 2022: komro relies on nationwide satellite coverage with Profi-SAT To meet the specific requirements of the local housing association which include the need to offer more extensive TV and media service in a variety of foreign languages, the telecommunications company was looking for a scalable and future-oriented solution that would be used throughout the entire Rosenheim city area. Since a supply of SAT signals already existed for certain apartment islands, the focus was now on an area-wide signal supply that could be supplied from four satellite positions thanks to the latest EDFA amplifier technology via one fiber.

Unlike IP-TV or streaming, SAT-TV is bandwidth-independent and therefore a high performance Internet connection is not required. This is a great advantage when existing network infrastructures reach their limits in peak times. Furthermore, the immense operating power saving of approximately 85% is a decisive ecological argument. In order to provide network operators, municipal utilities, energy supply companies and the real estate providers with future-proof fibre optic satellite solutions, Glasfaser-ABC, ASTRA Deutschland GmbH and HUBER+SUHNER BKtel GmbH have formed a partnership alliance.

Whereas fast surfing and real-time telephony via the Internet used to be the decisive factors for investments by network operators, new service industries have developed, which require ever greater amounts of data: IP-TV with hundreds of high-resolution TV channels up to 4K, streaming platforms such as Netflix, YouTube or Amazon with an immense range of movies and entertainment on demand, online games with several users in real time as well as extensive data uploads and downloads. In addition, there are new, digital forms of work, such as the home office. These challenges can only be met with a modern fiber optic infrastructure. It is not for nothing that many network operators are converting to Fiber-to-the-home (FTTH), setting a sign for the future.
