BSNL ropes in Viasat for Indian Navy’s satcom upgrade programme

Key Highlights

• This upgrade reflects BSNL’s ongoing commitment to enabling India’s strategic communication needs with resilient and secure infrastructure,” BSNL Chairman and Managing Director Robert Ravi said.
• Viasat’s international government team will support this programme under the company’s communication services segment.
• High-frequency bands can transmit signals at a faster speed in a short range, while lower frequency ranges provide wider coverage.
• “With the equipment having arrived in India and installation activities set to begin this month, we are proud to support the Indian Navy in modernising its satellite communication capabilities.
• This milestone marks an important step forward in our ongoing collaboration with BSNL and the Indian Defence Forces,” Viasat India Managing Director Gautam Sharma said.
