      Orange and Eutelsat to expand satellite connectivity in MEA

      Staff Reporter by Staff Reporter

      Orange will use the Eutelsat’s Konnect satellite to provide broadband services.

      Orange Africa and Middle East (OMEA) and Eutelsat have announced a strategic partnership to bridge the digital divide through satellite connectivity in Africa and the Middle East. It aims to connect isolated areas with broadband access, thereby strengthening digital inclusion in the region.

      As part of this multi-year partnership, Orange will use the Eutelsat Konnect satellite, which offers state-of-the-art broadband technology, to provide reliable and accessible Internet access. Initially, deployment will involve Jordan, Côte d’Ivoire, Senegal and the Democratic Republic of Congo, with the aim of gradually extending to all countries in the region.

      This partnership will make it possible to offer services tailored to both private individuals (B2C) and businesses (B2B), guaranteeing secure, reliable and high-performance connectivity. The complementary nature of the fixed, mobile and satellite technology offers will help to connect isolated territories and meet the growing need for Internet access in the region.

      The partnership leverages cutting-edge solutions delivering speeds of up to 100 Mbps, combined with Orange’s expertise, to expand coverage in white and rural areas. It aims to provide tailored services that meet the specific needs of individuals and businesses while ensuring reliable and secure connectivity in compliance with national regulations. This initiative aligns with Orange’s long-term vision to drive digital development across its operational regions, utilising the best available technologies while respecting national frameworks and fostering local ecosystems.

      Jérôme Hénique, Managing Director, Orange Africa and Middle East, commented: “This partnership illustrates our commitment to connecting all territories and bridging the digital divide in Africa and the Middle East.

      “Today, Orange serves more than 160m customers in the region, and is pursuing its ambition to provide digital access for all. Drawing on our expertise and local roots, we are positioning ourselves as a key player in supporting evolving customer expectations, while guaranteeing sustainable connectivity that respects local legislation.”

      Michael Trabbia, CEO of Orange Wholesale, said: “I am delighted with this strategic partnership between the Orange Group and Eutelsat Group, which is part of a long-term relationship. It is part of our strategy to offer our customers the best satellite connectivity solutions in high and low orbit, complementing our terrestrial networks. Orange Wholesale’s satellite factory has all the expertise required to implement this strategy for all Orange Group entities. We also offer satellite operators the terrestrial connectivity solutions they need, such as teleports or long-distance fiber.”

      Cyril Dujardin, President of the Connectivity Business Unit within the Eutelsat Group, added: “Our satellite technology including GEO capacity, combined with Orange’s local footprint, brings connectivity where it’s needed most. Together, we’re creating a robust solution to accessibility challenges, providing reliable and affordable connectivity for consumers and businesses alike.”

      Orange is already a reference customer of Eutelsat’s Konnect VHTS satellite, which it uses to provide broadband services to its subscribers in France.
