The maritime satcom market is facing challenges as incumbents navigate a challenging ARPU landscape
Starlink is transforming the maritime connectivity market by offering higher speeds and more affordable connectivity services which are disrupting the dominance of traditional premium satellite communication (satcom) providers. With the average revenue per unit (ARPU) falling from USD2000 to USD700 or less in the last 5 years, geostationary Earth orbit (GEO) incumbents are being forced to either cut prices or shift toward higher value offerings.
In this episode, Christopher Baugh, Partner, and Shagun Sachdeva, Senior Analyst, discuss the impact of declining ARPU in the maritime market and what the opportunities are for incumbent satcom providers despite the intense market pressure. As non-geostationary Earth orbit (NGEO) adoption accelerates and customer expectations evolve, the future of maritime satcom may be defined by scale and service innovation.
Christopher and Shagun discuss how legacy players can adapt in this changing landscape, whether through hybrid multi-orbit strategies, managed service models or vertical integration.
