The European operations of broadband ISP Bigblu<\/a> (BBB Europe), which supplies various satellite<\/a> and fixed wireless internet access services to consumers across the UK and parts of EU, has been acquired by satellite<\/a> operator Eutelsat<\/a> for a consideration of c.\u00a338m (just as their new high speed Konnect satellite<\/a> is due to enter service).<\/p>\n

BBB Europe generated revenues of around \u00a335m in 2019 but has been struggling for awhile. The activities to be acquired by Eutelsat<\/a> currently count around 50,000 Bigblu<\/a> subscribers<\/strong> across an expanding pan-European footprint, which includes operations in the UK, Ireland, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Poland, Hungary and Greece.<\/p>\n

The deal is particularly interesting because Eutelsat<\/a> have been one of Bigblu<\/a>’s biggest service suppliers (often utilising their existing KA-SAT spacecraft) and in January 2020 they launched their large next generation GEO KONNECT<\/strong> satellite (here<\/a>), which will share 75Gbps of capacity across a network of 65 spotbeams using the Ka-band – reaching across much of Africa (40 countries) and a big chunk of Europe (15 countries).<\/p>\n

Eutelsat has previously claimed that their new satellite platform should thus “provide Internet access services for both companies and individuals<\/em>” at up to 100Mbps<\/strong>, as well as offering more flexible and affordable data usage allowances. The first commercial services are expected to start going live towards the end of this year and into early 2021.<\/p>\n

Rodolphe Belmer of Eutelsat said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“We are delighted to integrate the activities of BBB Europe which will greatly enhance our European broadband distribution network as we progressively bring into service next-generation capacity in the form of EUTELSAT KONNECT and KONNECT VHTS, capable of bringing fiber-like high speed internet connection to the many areas in Europe that remain unserved or under-served by terrestrial infrastructure. This deal represents an important step in our broader Broadband strategy.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Suffice to say that Eutelsat will effectively become both the operator of the platform and the consumer facing ISP business, which is a position that might make other satellite ISPs in the business feel a little uncomfortable (most of which are just resellers for Eutelsat, Avanti and other operators). The closing of the transaction is expected by October 2020, subject to customary conditions precedent.<\/p>\n

We should add that Konnect is expected to be joined in 2022 by the presence of the Konnect VHTS<\/strong> (very high throughput) satellite, which is currently under construction by Thales Alenia Space. The VHTS is expected to weigh 6.3 tonnes and have a massive Ka-band capacity of 500Gbps.<\/p>\n

All of these services will no doubt face competition from the new generation of smaller Low Earth Orbit<\/strong> (LEO) satellite constellations via SpaceX, Amazon<\/a> and OneWeb<\/a> etc.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
