Our northern location and security operators’ needs set special requirements for security-critical data communication. Erillisverkot, Airbus and the Finnish Defence Forces tested the OneWeb satellite service, which is based on the LEO technology and offers broadband capacity and reliable connections, even at Arctic latitudes.
Press Release, London and Helsinki, 2 June 2021 – OneWeb, the global communications network powered from Space, invited representatives from across the Finnish Government agencies to observe a demonstration of OneWeb’s Global Connectivity service for the first time. Run in partnership with Finland’s state-run security network provider, Erillisverkot Group, the event demonstrated how OneWeb’s constellation of Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites is suited to supporting the operational requirements of multiple government agencies in the High North and Arctic Circle.
