The Caribbean region faces a significant challenge in the digital era: the digital divide. Despite advancements in mobile technology, nearly half of the Caribbean population remains unconnected. This disconnect is stark, with over 15 million people residing within the coverage area of 3G or 4G networks yet unable to access the internet. At the same time, 5G is in the early stages of deployment, constituting only 1% of all mobile connections in the region at the end of 2023.
Satellite to phone technology refers to the direct connection of mobile phones to satellites, bypassing the need for terrestrial cell towers.The potential applications of satellite to phone technology are vast and varied.
The rapid advancement in technology has brought about significant changes in how we stay connected. One of the most notable innovations in recent years is the eSIM (embedded SIM), which is gradually replacing traditional physical SIM cards.
Pacific Mobile Telecom (PMT), a leading Mobile Network Operator (MNO) operating under the Vodafone Polynésie brand exclusively in French Polynesia, has successfully improved its network performance and reliability through Summa Networks' HSS and HLR solution.
