Intelsat EpicNG Unlocks New Markets for Cellular Network Providers
Intelsat EpicNG Designed for Cost-Effective PerformanceBuilding upon the world’s largest satellite net-work, Intelsat is deploying a fully integrated, next-generation network that will support the needs of our customers in the future. The backwards compatible, open architecture Intelsat EpicNG platform is designed to deliver high performance and increased efficiency. Because it is fully integrated with our fully global coverage, virtually all of Intelsat’s customers will be able to access the high throughput capacity, positioning them for operational and business success.
CoverageEpicNG is fully integrated with the existing In-telsat fleet, supporting global coverage from the start of its deployment. The initial two EpicNG satellites will add high performance capacity for all of the populated continents. Intelsat 29e, which will be launched in 2015, will serve the Americas and the North Atlantic. Intelsat 33e, which will reach orbit in 2016, will provide coverage of Africa, Europe and Asia. Five additional EpicNG satellites will provide resilience and connectivity where demand is greatest, including Africa, Russia and Latin America.
EpicNG deploys the greatest amount of capaci-ty to high-traffic areas where it will be needed most via narrow spot beams while employ-ing wide beams to cover vast areas with low traffic densities. Our forward-thinking design uses the available spectrum to the maximum benefit of our customers. Our C- and Ku-band capacity supports multiple applications and enables customers to optimize network designs.
Open Architecture for Flexibility and ChoiceIntelsat designed the EpicNG platform with open architecture, preferred by carrier and enterprise-grade service for enabling highly flexible network topologies and the ability to customize hardware choices to the applica-tion. Since many customers already have net-works deployed, it is cost efficient to leverage their existing hub and remote hardware.
• Openarchitectureenableshighlyflexiblenetwork topologies, as compared to other systems where remote terminals are dependent on gateways
• Openarchitectureallowsvaryinggroundnetwork technologies to connect with one another, including combinations of C and Ku-band sites within the same network.
Frequency Optimized by ApplicationIntelsat’s EpicNG represents a major design breakthrough, providing high performance and increased throughput deployed in C-, Ku- or Ka-band frequencies. Our multi-frequency flexibility allows offerings to be customized to provide the best solution for each application and region. Intelsat has the world’s largest collection of premier spectral rights. By working with end users to find the best option for their needs, Intelsat can provide an optimized network solution.
The approach also allows users to maintain control of their network topology and busi-ness model, while offering future compati-bility thanks to the open architecture design of Intelsat EpicNG. Intelsat EpicNG will meet the demand for broadband connectiv-ity around the globe, enabling delivery of a greater variety of solutions to more custom-ers with improved economics.
High Performance. More Control. More Choices. That’s EpicNG.

Intelsat EpicNG:ExtendsYourNetwork’s Reach and Capabilities
In order to meet universal service obligations, and satisfy subscriber demand, wireless operators need to increase their service territories as well as the amount of bandwidth available for communications services. This can prove challenging in re-mote regions where the terrain makes it difficult and very costly to reach subscribers. As a result, large populations of end users
– and the revenue potential they represent – remain out of reach of many cellular networks and mobile providers.
Intelsat has a successful and proven history providing satellite solu-tions that extend mobile network infrastructures, including 2G and even 3G deployments, with carrier-grade reliability and availability. Serving more than 60 wireless operators on every populated conti-nent and with a heritage of providing highly reliable infrastructure for the telecommunication sector for over 50 years, Intelsat under-stands the operating environment for wireless service providers and the economics that drive growth and profitability.
Intelsat EpicNG: Designed to Deliver a Superior Broadband User ExperienceThe high throughput Intelsat EpicNG platform is designed to exceed the requirements of leading wireless operators, enabling through-put in the range of 25-60 Gbps per satellite, about 10 times that of traditional satellites. More importantly, the performance of the new design significantly increases the capabilities of standard ground infrastructure, allowing up to 10 times more throughput through a given remote configuration. Teaming increased efficiencies in the air (Mbps/MHz) with increased efficiencies on the ground (Mbps/Watt) allows for the most attractive end user economics.
With 3G and 4G Networks, Intelsat EpicNG provides the high throughputs required to support increasing demand of consumers for bandwidth to support multimedia applications. For aggrega-tion, EpicNG provides availability levels minimizing frequency of link outages, maximizing network-wide reliability. For last-mile, single-remote access, it enables small, easy-to-use kits with minimal operational complexity, including solar-powered solutions for lower maintenance expense.

Intelsat EpicNG Changes the Equation on Satellite-based SolutionsIntelsat provides a platform on which wireless operators can create differentiation and add unique value. Customers will be able to benefit from Intelsat’s global fleet of more than 50 satellites as well as our IntelsatOne terrestrial network. This combination provides the optimum solution for coverage, throughput, performance and economics.

• Intelsatistheonlyoperatorwith an open architecture design that can offer simple forward compatibility, reducing the cost for future expansion
• Theexplosivegrowthincellularpenetrationandincreasingdemandfor mobile broadband services are driving cellular network operators around the globe to rethink their network infrastructures. The challenge for network operators is finding a way to cost-effectively improve and expand their networks in order to make services affordable for end users.
• Intelsat,theworldleaderinprovidingsatellite-basedwirelessinfrastructure, is deploying Intelsat EpicNG, a next generation, high throughput satellite (HTS) platform that will help expand the network operator’s geographic reach and subscriber base, while , at the same time, dramatically lower the total cost of ownership.
• Byimprovingthefrequencyreuseofthesatelliteandtheoveralleconomics of the network infrastructure, Intelsat will help service providers increase the average revenue per user (ARPU) and more importantly, deliver the connectivity, quality and reliability that their end users deserve.
Intelsat EpicNG:ImprovesTotalCostofOwnershipand Delivers Broadband-Ready Infrastructure The technology advantages provided by Intelsat EpicNG are designed to address all elements of network infrastructure cost – from capital expenditures to cost of throughput and ongoing operations and maintenance.
Increased bandwidth and higher performance – meaning more bits delivered per segment of capacity – are the primary drivers behind the need to expand capabilities and also are prime characteristics of EpicNG.
Another primary design feature of Intelsat EpicNG is operator total cost of ownership as an objective. The platform is backwards compatible, allowing customers to expand and improve network performance using existing hardware. Intelsat EpicNG also allows network design flexibility through the use of ‘best-fit’ spectrum. This means that end users will now have the unique capability to use and choose the right frequency band based on application needs. Our mix of high-power Ku-band and C-band capacity means custom-ers can use smaller kits, including solar-powered units for Ku-band, while mixing the spectrum types based upon reliability and cost requirements. Most importantly, EpicNG is designed to deliver carrier-grade network reliability.
By featuring lowest total cost of ownership as its design parameter for Intelsat EpicNG, Intelsat is allowing operators to expand their networks, reaching new areas and customers with a more robust solution, combining these strengths with the breadth of existing wide beam designs.
