Comcast Business and Starlink forge connectivity powerhouse

Comcast Business has entered into a strategic agreement with Starlink, one of the world's leading Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite technologies, to help deliver advanced connectivity solutions for enterprise customers. The collaboration brings industry-leading satellite capabilities into the managed connectivity portfolio from Comcast Business, expecting to deliver faster and more reliable connectivity, especially within underserved locations.

“As the first major network provider to collaborate with Starlink, we’re excited to uniquely enhance our extensive managed connectivity portfolio with advanced satellite capabilities to better serve our enterprise customers,” said Jon Friedman, Sr. Vice President, Product Strategy and Operations, Comcast Business. “Starlink’s LEO satellite technology complements our existing network infrastructure, extends our reach and further enhances Comcast Business’ ability to deliver reliable connectivity solutions to enterprises with a human touch.”

For those enterprises with geographically spread-out locations, the problems associated with connectivity can be huge. These may include geographical limitations, scalability worries, and reliability problems, which are less common in high-density areas. What the Comcast Business-Starlink partnership brings together is the combined expertise, products, and services of managed connectivity solutions that are both reliable and innovative.
