• Premium Business Package Speed: 15Mbps Download and 3Mbps upload "Vox Telecom in partnership with Al Yah Satellite Communications Company PJSC (Yahsat) in Abu Dhabi deployed Yahsat's new Y1B satellite with Ka-band technology and has 55 active spot beams via Ka multi-spot beams with an EIRP (Equivalent Isotropically Radiated Power) of up to 66 dBW and reusable frequencies to maximize spectrum efficiency. While traditional satellite technology utilizes broad single beams covering entire continents and regions, YahClick's Ka-band spot beams provide coverage over highly targeted areas (a smaller footprint on the ground), which simply means more reliability, greater efficiency on the ground, smaller antennas and lower costs for the end user, as well as the elimination of issues with spectrum availability. The Hughes CPE Terminal can support speeds of up to 16Mbps,"
