Lynk Global and Telefónica test Sat2Phone in Argentina

Chinese LEO satellite operator Geespace and Malaysian telecoms service provider Altel Communications have agreed to establish an R&D centre to develop use cases for direct-to-device (D2D) satellite communications technology.

Satellite technology company Avanti Communications has been granted the authorisation required for its HYLAS 4 satellite gateway station in Diamniadio, Senegal, about 32 kilometres from Dakar.

Veon-owned Ukrainian telco Kyivstar said on Monday it has successfully connected its core network to Starlink’s LEO satellite infrastructure, bringing it a step closer to offering direct-to-device (D2D) satellite services later this year.
