Frequently Asked Questions

Thor 7 provides Ku-Band coverage across the North Sea, Norwegian Sea, Barents Sea, and Northern European land areas up to 80°N latitude — regions where most GEO satellites provide poor elevation angles and limited usable bandwidth.

Thor 7 orbits at a higher inclination that provides better look angles for Arctic installations, improving link quality where equatorial GEO satellites sit at very low elevation (below 10°) and suffer multipath interference and atmospheric losses.

Yes. GCCSAT has deployed Thor 7 VSAT on multiple North Sea drilling rigs and offshore platforms. Marine-grade antenna systems with gyro stabilization maintain connectivity in harsh North Sea sea states.

Yes. GCCSAT designs hybrid architectures combining Thor 7 VSAT (reliability, coverage) with OneWeb LEO (low latency, high throughput) for North Sea and Arctic operations, managed by Peplink SD-WAN.
