Orbith consolidates business in Argentina and projects its regional expansion

Since it launched its service in March, Orbith has added 1,500 satellite Internet clients in Argentina, and incorporates 400 new subscribers per month with projections of a higher growth as its 20 distributors -between ISPs and cable operators- add customers and disseminate the service . The company plans to expand to other countries in the region through the incorporation of capacity in a new satellite.

In addition to the operation mounted on the capacity of the satellites Amazonas 3 and Amazonas 5 of Hispasat, Orbith is about to close an agreement with a third satellite - still in talks - to have more available capacity in Argentina and add operations in Peru and Colombia in mid 2021. "The vision of the company is regional and we are convinced that there is a business opportunity for suburban and rural areas that today do not have fiber optic and that in Latin America represents more than 20 million homes", said Pablo Mosiul, General Manager of Orbith.
