Avanti's third-generation Ka-band high-throughput satellite, significantly expanding European broadband coverage. HYLAS-4 provides broadband connectivity to rural European communities that fall below the threshold for commercial fiber or 5G deployment — a significant population across Eastern Europe, the Balkans, and the Mediterranean. The satellite also supports maritime connectivity for European fishing and commercial fleets across the Atlantic and Mediterranean.
