WILMINGTON, DE and LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM -- (Marketwired) -- 09/12/14 -- High-Throughput Satellites (HTS) has oftentimes been synonymous with consumer broadband services in developed
countries; however, NSR's Global Satellite Capacity Supply & Demand, 11th Edition report forecasts HTS revenues for key
applications overtaking traditional FSS C-, Ku-, and Ka-band revenues by 2023.

In terms of raw capacity measured in Gbps,demand will indeed be most strongly buoyed by Consumer Broadband services, which will be concentrated largely in North America and Western Europe. However,when looking at revenues a very different picture emerges, only 25% of HTS revenues
come from consumer broadband.

"We have known since the inception of HTS that these
payloads will be ideal for consumer
broadband, this is not surprising. What is interesting is while looking at applications such as commercial mobility, we are seeing HTS overtake traditional FSS by 2023 in
terms of revenues," states Blaine Curcio, Senior Analyst at NSR and report co-author."Further, we are seeing a lot more momentum for applications like Enterprise
Data, for which HTS is seeing revenue CAGRs of more than 20%, compared to less than 4% for Ku-band, for example, or negative growth for C-band," adds Curcio.
Part of this explosion in demand will undoubtedly come about due to a huge increase in HTS supply, which is expected to increase more than fourfold from less than 500 Gbps in 2013 to over 2 Terabits in 2023.
