Broadband internet via satellite is coming to 500 rural communities in Mexico thanks to Spanish telecommunications satellite operator Hispasat and Mexican internet service provider GlobalSat.Hispasat has collaborated with GlobalSat in the rollout of satellite connectivity hotspots in 500 remote towns in Mexico, including Durango, San Luis Potosi, Guerrero, Coahuila, Tamaulipas, Zacatecas and Sinaloa.This initiative, promoted by the federal government through the CFE TEIT (CFE Telecommunications and Internet for All) initiative, means the residents of these towns will be able to enjoy free satellite connectivity on their devices through an open Wi-Fi hotspot located in public areas in these communities.The CFE TEIT initiative aims to guarantee the right for the Mexican people to access information and communication technology, as well as radio broadcast and telecommunications services. Satellite technology will play an important part, especially in rural areas, in making this happen.
