Satcube Ku

Satcube Ku

Wherever + Whenever = Satcube Ku

Satcube Ku is a portable wifi hub able to connect directly to satellites.

"But what's point of that?" one might ask.

Well, in parts of the world where infrastructure with 3G antennas and cellphone coverage is lacking, a Satcube Ku enables incredibly fast connection speeds within a minute of setup. This allows professionals like news coverage reporters to get into close proximity of 'the center of action' - even when the action is not geographically central. Other common areas of usage include remote firefighting, research expeditions and instant internet access when regular means are out of order. 

This product works excellent today, but thanks to the increasing amount of satellites in orbit it automatically gets better all the time. Organizations like OneWeb, Space-X, Kuyper, 03B and more are launching tens of thousand satellites to the stratosphere in order to connect all of the globe, independent of local infrastructure on the ground. Satcube Ku benefits from this in every way and creates proximity to even the most distant places.

In principle this technology allows every part of our planet to connect to each other through text, speech and video. It is an incredible democratization of information exchange which connects the planet's current 4 billion internet users to 4 billion new, creative individuals.
