Can Peplink bond LEO satellite with fibre and 5G?

LEO Satellite Connectivity · Answered by FirstNet Technology Services

Short answer

Yes. A Peplink router treats a LEO satellite terminal as one more link and bonds it with fibre and 5G into one connection.

In detail: Bonding LEO satellite with fibre and 5G

What that gives a site:

  • Hot failover: with SpeedFusion bonding, a live call or remote desktop session continues if one link drops
  • SpeedFusion Boost: keeps throughput high over lossy, high-latency links such as satellite and cellular, so a slower link does not drag down a faster one
  • Live link status: InControl 2 shows the state and signal of Eutelsat OneWeb terminals in real time, so FirstNet's NOC sees a problem before users do
  • Multi-orbit: Peplink's new MAX Orbit series can bond several satellite terminals on one router, up to eight on the MAX Orbit 8

FirstNet supplies the LEO service on Eutelsat OneWeb, the fibre and 5G links and the Peplink router, and designs how they work together for each site.
