Satellite Private Data Network Links

For satellite private data network links, AT&T offers the SKYNET Digital Service. This service allows

AT&T to provide business users with a cost-effective, private network through wide area coverage

satellites. Transport rates from 56 kbps to 1.544 Mbps are available.

The service is available within the contiguous 48 states extending into US Caribbean locations and Hawaii.

Earth stations can be provided on a dedicated basis on customer premises, or on a shared-use basis using

terrestrial access.
