Riaan I-Amazon ichaza i-antenna ye-inthanethi yesathelayithi ethengekayo.
NgoFebhuwari, safunda ukuthi i-Amazon ilungiselela ukufaka amasathelayithi e-Broadband angaphezu kuka-3,000 “Project Kuiper” ku-orbit. Lesi sinyathelo sizohlinzeka nge-inthanethi ezigidini, ezifana ne I-Starlink ye-SpaceX. Inkampani isinikeza ukubheka kwethu kokuqala kwezimpondo ezintathu ezizosebenzisa inethiwekhi.
Kuzongena i-antenna ebiza kancane yase-Amazon osayizi abathathu abahlukenekusukela kumamegabhithi angu-100 ngomzuzwana kuya cishe kugigabhithi elingu-1, okuyenza ifaneleke kuhlelo olubanzi lwamakhasimende nezinhlelo zokusebenza zebhizinisi.
Inketho yokuqala ye-Project Kuiper wuthi oluncane, oluhlangene kakhulu oluklanyelwe ukuya noma yikuphi. Ilinganiselwa amayintshi angu-7 ngosayizi futhi inesisindo sephawundi elingu-1 kuphela, nokho izoletha isivinini esifika ku-100 Mbps kumakhasimende. Ngicabanga ukuthi imodeli encane izoheha abasebenzisi be-RV nalabo abasendleleni.
Bese, imodeli “ejwayelekile” ifana naleyo esiyibone ku-StarLink, izobiza ngaphansi kuka-$400, futhi ifinyelele isivinini esisondela ku-400 Mbps. Kuthathwa njengenketho efanelekile kumakhasimende okuhlala kanye namabhizinisi amancane.
Futhi ekugcineni, i-Amazon ihlela nokukhulula i-antenna ye-Pro-level eyakhelwe ibhizinisi noma abasebenzisi bakahulumeni. Le antenna yesithathu iletha isivinini sokuhlanya somkhawulokudonsa esingafika kugigabhithi elingu-1 ngomzuzwana. Yinkulu, ikala ama-intshi angu-19×30, futhi inganikezela ngezinhlelo zokuxhumana ngocingo.
Okuthunyelwe kwebhulogi ye-Amazon uthe, “I-Project Kuiper iyinethiwekhi yesathelayithi ye-Amazon’s low Earth orbit (LEO). Umgomo wayo ukuvala ukuhlukana kwedijithali ngokuhlinzeka nge-broadband esheshayo, ethengekayo emiphakathini engasizwa noma enganakiwe ubuchwepheshe bezokuxhumana bendabuko.”
Asinayo eminye imininingwane eminingi kakhulu mayelana nokutholakala noma intengo. Uma kuqhathaniswa, i-SpaceX’s Starlink yabasebenzisi bezindawo zokuhlala ingu-$599 ukuze ifakwe, bese isebenzisa u-$119 ngenyanga futhi iletha isivinini esiphakathi kuka-50-200 Mbps.
Sicabanga ukuthi i-Amazon izozama ukungena ngenani elifanayo lentengo, futhi isivele ingaphambili kancane ngenketho yokuhlala esethelwe ukuthengisa ngaphansi kwama- $ 400. I-Project Kuiper ngeke itholakale kumakhasimende kuze kube sekupheleni kuka-2024 ngemva kokuba amasathelayithi okuqala okukhiqiza engene emzileni ophansi woMhlaba engxenyeni yokuqala yonyaka omusha.
