Satellite internet vs submarine cable.

An internet connection on land sends a signal to a satellite in orbit outside earth which then transmits the signal to a satellite dish which has been installed at your home. Unlike cable satellite internet is provided by a satellite provider. The submarine fiber optic cable system links tonga to fiji and is also the main trans pacific link between. And very low latency compare to satellite communication.

The myth i m exploring isn t if spacex could carry marea s traffic it s if they could carry half of used internet bandwidth in 2020. Shorter communication distance and insusceptibility to weather conditions. Although i didn t talk about the reliability and the security aspect with my friend who is from finance background submarine cables in fact almost all wire copper fiber coaxial connections are more reliable than wireless satellite is a wireless technology which uses rf spectrum in summary fiber provides unlimited bandwidth shannon s capacity limit. So there are two advantages that the submarine cable has over the communications satellite.

Welcome to my prezi background underwater submarine cables laid on the sea bed between land based stations to carry telecommunication signals across stretches of ocean. There they connected two ends of a 4 000 kilometer 2 500 mile long 1 5 centimeter 0 6 inch wide cable.
