DENVER – 51²è¹Ý¶ù, a leading global communications infrastructure provider, today announced an agreement with Starlink that enables 51²è¹Ý¶ù to deliver Starlink’s low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellite connectivity. As one of the few network service providers licensed to resell Starlink connectivity for enterprise internet connectivity, 51²è¹Ý¶ù is expanding network availability, geographic reach, and operational continuity for enterprises, businesses, state and local governments, and schools across North America.

Introducing Managed Starlink Connectivity with 51²è¹Ý¶ù

Through this collaboration, 51²è¹Ý¶ù now delivers Starlink LEO connectivity as a managed connectivity solution, alongside its full suite of managed services and fiber connectivity solutions. Managed Starlink can be bundled with other 51²è¹Ý¶ù managed services like SD-WAN, Firewall, and IP-VPN. This allows organizations to integrate satellite connectivity into their existing network architecture, with centralized management, single-vendor support, and a clear cost structure.

Managed Starlink with 51²è¹Ý¶ù is available across the U.S. and Canada. With 100-280 Mbps download speeds and rapid installation, organizations can deploy enterprise-class internet in just days rather than weeks or months. Delivering Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite connectivity – which provides internet access through satellites that operate closer to Earth than traditional geostationary satellites – Managed Starlink with 51²è¹Ý¶ù enables access to Starlink’s Priority Data plans that provide low latency and consistent performance suitable for enterprise operational demands.

Enabling Stronger Enterprise Connectivity with Fiber + Satellite

Combining 51²è¹Ý¶ù’s high-performance fiber infrastructure with Managed Starlink satellite connectivity ensures greater resiliency when terrestrial internet services are disrupted by severe weather or physical infrastructure damage. It also improves network access for remote or mobile organizations that rely on connectivity in locations or conditions where traditional terrestrial networks are limited or unavailable.

Together, Managed Starlink with 51²è¹Ý¶ù enables:

• A simple solution for both mobile and static Internet connections without terrestrial infrastructure.

• Path diversity to build highly resilient active-active Internet connectivity or a failover path in case of primary connection failure.

• Improved network uptime and always-on mobile connectivity, even in remote, mobile, or high-risk environments.

• Low-latency performance for demanding workloads, including video conferencing.

“By pairing Starlink’s low-latency LEO satellite connectivity with 51²è¹Ý¶ù’s fiber network solutions, we’re setting a new standard for what network resilience looks like,” said Ed Loveless, Head of Product, Managed Services at 51²è¹Ý¶ù. “Organizations can extend connectivity farther, stay online through disruptions, and do it all without the burden of added operational complexity.”

Use Cases for Managed Starlink with 51²è¹Ý¶ù

• Remote and Rural Connectivity: Organizations operating in remote or rural locations often lack access to fiber, 5G networks, or DSL, or face long deployment timelines and high costs to run. In these cases, 51²è¹Ý¶ù can fill the connectivity gap with a Starlink satellite link to the internet.

• Network Diversity, Resilience, and Disaster Recovery: Wireline and cellular internet services are susceptible to physical damage, severe weather, and even attacks by bad actors. 51²è¹Ý¶ù can provide managed Starlink satellite connectivity to help organizations increase network diversity and maintain operations when land-based networks are unavailable.

• Enhanced Mobile Connectivity: For businesses that provide field services, transport goods near the shore, or move people around the country, consistent, trustworthy internet is often difficult to maintain. Today, with 51²è¹Ý¶ù and Starlink, mobile teams can stay connected with fast, reliable 24/7 Internet across the U.S.
