Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport

Broadband Infrastructure: Discussion

Mr. Rory Fitzpatrick:

It does. The difference is the GEOs are floating 35,000 km out. Starlink has managed to gets its licence changed and is now only 550 km out. It is very close. Effectively, Starlink has built a floating wireless network that covers from 52o N to 52o S.
