Coverage
W6 at 21.5 degrees East
Located at 21.5° East, W6 is ideal for companies needing to communicate between Europe, North Africa, the Sahara, the Middle East and the Gulf region. Fine-tuned for professional communications, the satellite is perfect for applications such as VSAT networks, broadband Internet and data broadcasting.
With twenty-four simultaneously active transponders, W6 provides a widebeam coverage of Europe, North Africa, the Middle East and Central Asia, and a steerable coverage centred over North Africa, the Sahara and the Mediterranean region.
Like the W2 satellite, ten channels can be individually configured for operation via either of the two coverages. The remaining channels are connected to the Widebeam coverage.

W3A at 7 degrees East
W3A is one of Eutelsat's most sophisticated satellites, combining Ku- and Ka-band frequencies and on-board multi-plexing (SKYPLEX). It provides pan-European and pan-African coverage while guaranteeing connectivity between the two continents. Areas covered:
Europe
Sub-Saharan Africa
Strategically placed at 7 degrees East, over the Gulf of Guinea, Eutelsat's W3A satellite covers the whole of sub-Saharan Africa and provides direct connectivity to Europe and the Mediterranean Basin.
In addition to bringing Africa its first SKYPLEX on-board multi-plexing solution, W3A also brings to Africa key applications such as distance-learning, telemedicine, Internet access and much more.

SESAT 2 at 53 degrees East
SESAT 2 provides coverage through a highly flexible configuration of
fixed and steerable beams. The satellite was built by NPO-PM of
Krasnoïarsk, with a payload supplied by Alcatel Space.
These two manufacturers have already collaborated in the
manufacture of Eutelsat’s SESAT 1 satellite, launched in 2000
and successfully operated since at the 36 degrees East orbital
position. Areas covered:
Europe
Mediterranean
Middle East
Africa
Central Asia
The high-power capacity leased by Eutelsat for the 12-year
lifetime of the satellite provides three coverages: a European
coverage extending to North Africa and the Middle East, and
two steerable coverages. The latter can be steered to cover
Central Asia and African countries south of the Sahara.
SESAT 2 capacity will enable Eutelsat to enhance its commercial
offering in its core markets for telecommunications,
broadband and broadcasting services, while opening growth
opportunities in geographical areas with significant potential.

Atlantic Bird 1 at 12.5 degrees West
Countries covered:
Europe
North America
South America
With twenty channels, the Atlantic Bird 1 satellite was primarily designed to provide telecommunications services between Europe and the Americas. Its American coverage comprises North and South American zones. Its European coverage encompasses Europe, North Africa and the near Middle East.
Offering high flexibility, the satellite supports telecommunications networks spanning the two continents, providing a virtual common coverage and channel space. For example, a signal received from one coverage can be simultaneously transmitted to the other coverage, or to both coverages simultaneously. Signals can also be received from both coverages and transmitted to a single coverage.

PAS-1R at 45 degrees West
PanAmSat's PAS-1R Atlantic Ocean Region spacecraft, one of the world's largest, most powerful commercial satellites ever launched, employs 72 transponders to offer expanded and enhanced video and data broadcasting as well as broadband Internet services throughout:
Europe
Caribbean
Africa
Americas
PAS-1R is a Boeing 702 model spacecraft with an advanced communications payload consisting of 36 C-band and 36 Ku-band transponders, each supplying 36 MHz of bandwidth. The spacecraft launched from Arianespace's Guiana Space Center in Kourou, French Guiana aboard an Ariane 5 rocket on November 15, 2000. PAS-1R's deployment was our 17th Ariane launch and the first voyage using the Ariane 5 rocket.

NSS-6 at 95 degrees East
Countries covered:
Australia
Middle East
South Africa
NSS-6 covers the whole of Asia with six high-performance Ku-band beams, which can deliver broadband media to small business, ISPs or domestic rooftop antennas in every market. The satelite delivers Direct-To-Home power and performance, as well as the best inter-regional connectivity in the satellite industry. High-gain uplink performance enables the use of small uplink antennas.
From local uplink at Ka-band to regional coverage at Ku-band to global connectivity, NSS-6 is the ideal satellite for ambitious communicators. NSS-6 is part of the New Skies global fleet of high-performance satellites, which can provide onward transmission of signals across the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans to markets in the Americas. The provision of additional uplink capability in some beams is designed to optimize the combination of fiber backhaul and satellite delivery.
