SpaceX, led by Ilan Musk, has signed a big appointment that can change how people use mobile networks. The company has agreed to buy wireless spectrum licenses from the US ACTABR company for about $ 5 billion. This spectrum will be used to expand Starlink, SpaceX satellite internet service to connect the mobile phone and increase the likelihood of a 5G network with the company in the future.
According to information obtained by the Digino website, the move has attracted the attention of the telecommunications industry currently being directed by giants such as AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile. With this purchase, Ilan Musk Starelink makes not only a satellite bandwidth provider, but also a potential competitor in the mobile network. The Washington Post said in a report that experts believe that the most impact will be felt in remote and remote areas, where existing operators often provide limited coverage.
The mask has also pointed to its broader goal. He said in the “All-in” podcast that the result of the new frequency spectrum agreement would be that you can watch videos anywhere on your phone. As part of the agreement, Echostar Boost Mobile customers will also have access to the direct service of the Starlink phone. This is expected to expand to places where ordinary networks cannot access.
Hamid Akhavan, the chief executive of Akluard, described the agreement as a contract that would provide the Boost project customers faster and more economical. It is worth noting that Starlink had previously tested a satellite SMS service in collaboration with T-Mobile, which was launched in the name of “T-Satellite” at a monthly fee. With the help of the new frequency spectrum, the company says it will soon be upgrading to data services and shortly thereafter voice calls.
In addition, Ilan Musk has not rejected direct competition with leading mobile operators. In the podcast, he is asked if he might consider buying a large telecommunication company like Verizon, and the mask replied that nothing is unlikely. Currently, focusing on integrating Starlink satellites with mobile phones is obtained using a fresh frequency spectrum. If successful, users may no longer need to be dependent on ground towers in the coming years, but can contact the satellites directly and watch content.
