Hispasat's next-generation Americas satellite, featuring a fully flexible high-throughput payload that can allocate capacity dynamically across coverage zones. Amazonas Nexus supports the continued expansion of Brazilian satellite broadband — a market that has grown dramatically as the pandemic forced remote work and education into rural areas previously served only by voice satellite. Its flexible payload adjusts coverage and power allocation in real time to match demand patterns that shift seasonally and daily.
