Jeff Bezos‘ Blue Origin is promising speeds up to 6Tbps. However, the satellite internet system is meant for enterprise and government customers, rather than consumers.
SpaceX rival Blue Origin has announced its own competitor to Starlink that promises to offer even faster speeds, but it’s only for enterprise and government customers.
On Wednesday, Blue Origin introduced “TeraWave,” a satellite internet system that’s being designed to deliver both gigabit internet and even “symmetrical data speeds of up to 6 Tbps anywhere on Earth.”
“This network will service tens of thousands of enterprise, data center, and government users who require reliable connectivity for critical operations,” the Jeff Bezos-owned company said.
The system looks poised to rival SpaceX’s Starshield, which also uses Starlink technology, but for military and government customers. In a regulatory filing, Blue Origin noted: “TeraWave is developed to offer secure, high-capacity services for government users— civil, defense, and national security—wherever they operate. These users face some of the most acute consequences from connectivity loss.
