Our history in Africa

1965Intelsat has been part of the

communications fabric in Africa

since 1965. We are the first

operator to introduce satellite

services to Africa, enabling critical

communications infrastructure

throughout the continent.

2016

With the launch of IS-33e, Intelsat is the first

provider to offer C-band and Ku-band High

Throughput coverage in Africa.

Pairing the Intelsat EpicNG with Kymeta’s high-performance

metamaterials antennas will accelerate access to cost-effective satellite

solutions across maritime, mobility, broadband and IoT/M2M sectors.

Establishes connectivity in sectors for which traditional antennas are not

currently practical or feasible.

New Ku-antenna technology provides higher broadband speeds to civil and

government small-jets, expanding the market to smaller civil aircraft.

Provides service providers and aircraft manufacturers with greater access,

flexibility and choice for high-speed broadband connectivity.

Providing approximately 80 mobile operators with satellite-based

backhaul services, including the top 10 mobile groups in Africa,

representing 81% of the region's subscribers.

Reaching 16.3 million households.

Serving 25 state broadcasters delivering 443 TV channels and 300 radio

stations.

Largest provider of DTH and cellular backhaul solutions in Africa.

Continued investment in the region will enable providers to expand and

increase cost efficiencies with the launch of Intelsat EpicNG IS-33e in 2016.

IntelsatOne® solutions provide diversity and redundancy.

Fuchsstadt teleport serves as a global gateway for African providers;

Intelsat also services Africa from its North American teleports.

Difficult and Expensive to Connect Rural Areas

• Fiber is costly and difficult to deploy due to

topography, or not viable economically given

vast regions or sparse populations.

• Network deployments are slow due to poor or

non-existent road infrastructure

• Tower equipment is large, costly to transport

and install

• No access/unreliable power grid requires use of

diesel generators

• Diesel prone to theft

• Requires frequent visits to replenish fuel

• Security risks in war-torn regions

• Low population density impacts profitability

Our satellites empower our customers to

bridge the digital divide by cost-effectively

connect the people living in rural areas

About the Ampain Refugee Camp

• Ampain is a small community located

approximately 57 kilometers from the Ghana-

Ivory Coast border town of Elubo. It has an

estimated population of 1,100 people.

• The Ampain camp is located in the Ellembelle

District of the Western Region of Ghana.

• There were no connectivity for people living in

the camp and they were all waiting for it.

• According to UNHCR, unlike other refugee

camps in the region, the Ampain camp is largely

populated by very educated people.

Page 34: Intelsat presentation futuresat

Intelsat kiosks solutions consist of a Kiosk (light, solar

panels, charging station, Wifi-router, etc) and a VSAT

equipment fueled with the power of Intelsat satellites to

provide fast and reliable connectivity to underserved

areas.

Some possible services that could be offered via the

kiosk to the surrounding communities could be:

• Point-of-sale for Pre-paid cards/SIM sales

• Mobile repairs/Device charging stations

• Internet kiosk with printing capability

• E-education/Entertainment station (using an optional

Screen);

• PoS for eBanking

• other services (grocery, etc.).

Intelsat Kiosk deployed at the Ampain refugee camp

• The internet service was provided on Intelsat NBB platform.

• The kiosk was composed of a small light structure, solar panels, a charging station, a

WiFi router with an embedded voucher generation system.

• Intelsat partnered with a local company to provide technical support on the ground.

• Future kiosks will be on Ku-band with smaller antennas (1m).

Page 36: Intelsat presentation futuresat

36

Outcome

• People living at the camp enjoyed

connectivity for the time !

• Thanks to the Intelsat kiosk, UNHCR

decided to build an IT center equipped

with 15 computers (will grow to 25) and

solar panels. At a later stage, UNHCR

will organize group activities like distant

learning and run some IT projects

targeting children and women.
