SES has brought two additional O3b mPOWER satellites online to increase the capacity of its Medium Earth Orbit (MEO) satellite network. To date, SES has launched 10 out of 13 O3b mPOWER satellites, which are now delivering commercial service and expanding high-throughput, low-latency connectivity across global markets.
The remaining three satellites in SES’s MEO system are scheduled for launch in the second half of 2026.
Adel Al-Saleh, CEO of SES, said of the additions: “This added capacity strengthens what we can deliver today and it is a clear signal of what’s coming next. With 10 of 13 satellites launched and three more scheduled later this year, we’re on track to fully deploy O3b mPOWER and bring a further significant increase in capacity by 2027.”
