LEO Satellite Connectivity for Transport Fleets
Uninterrupted, high-speed, low-latency internet for transport, logistics, maritime, and any "machine in motion." Real-time connectivity for fleets, trains, and vessels, anywhere on the planet, with resilient SD-WAN bonding.
Real-time connectivity for fleets, trains, and vessels, anywhere on the planet, with resilient SD-WAN bonding.
Resilient SD-WAN bonding (LEO + 5G/4G) for transport
We deliver highly resilient connectivity with SD-WAN bonding. Our solution uses a phased-array antenna on the vehicle to automatically connect to LEO satellites and simultaneously bonds this connection with 5G/4G cellular for true hybrid connectivity. The SD-WAN device provides seamless, hitless failover as the vehicle moves between cellular coverage and satellite-only zones — perfect for logistics and transport fleets that can't afford connectivity gaps.
Real-time telematics & high-capacity passenger Wi-Fi for transport
LEO's high-speed and low-latency finally enables data-intensive applications on the move. We deliver solutions that support real-time telematics, live video/CCTV feeds from the vehicle, and high-capacity passenger WiFi for dozens of users on buses, coaches, and trains. For secure, UK-hosted infrastructure for your transport data, explore our sovereign cloud solutions.
A single connectivity partner for transport
Beyond LEO satellite connectivity, we provide the wider network expertise transport operators need — from resilient SD-WAN and connectivity for transport to cyber security for connected vehicles and telematics. One partner, one point of contact, across your entire connectivity estate.
Ready to connect your fleet, wherever it operates?
From resilient SD-WAN bonding to real-time telematics and passenger Wi-Fi, our transport connectivity specialists can help you design the right LEO solution for your fleet.

LEO Satellite Connectivity FAQs for Transport
-
LEO (Low Earth Orbit) refers to a new generation of satellite constellations (like Starlink or OneWeb) that orbit much closer to Earth than old GEO satellites. This proximity provides two massive benefits: high speeds (200+ Mbps) and low latency (<100ms), making it usable for video calls, streaming, and real-time data.
-
Yes. We deploy our Performance Gen2 terminal for in-motion use — a wider field-of-view antenna purpose-built for vehicles and vessels, designed to maintain a connection to more satellites while the vehicle is moving, unlike standard fixed-site hardware.
-
The biggest difference is latency (lag). Traditional GEO satellites are 35,000 km away, resulting in high latency (600ms+) that makes applications like Teams or VoIP calls unusable. LEO satellites are only 550 km away, providing low latency (<100ms) that feels just like fibre or 5G.
-
We use specialised, flat-panel phased-array antennas that are designed for mobility. These antennas are electronically steered, meaning they have no moving parts. They automatically track the LEO satellites as they move across the sky, maintaining a constant, high-speed connection even while the vehicle is in motion.
-
This is the most resilient solution. An SD-WAN device on the vehicle connects to both the LEO antenna and one or more 5G/4G modems. It then "bonds" these connections, treating them as a single, ultra-reliable link. It intelligently sends traffic over the best path (e.g., 5G in a city, LEO in a rural area) and provides hitless failover, so a video call won't even drop if one connection fails.
-
Yes. A single LEO connection can provide hundreds of Mbps of bandwidth. This is more than enough to provide a high-quality, stable WiFi experience for dozens of passengers, allowing them to stream video, browse, and work.
