SSL built multi-mission satellite for HISPASAT begins post-launch maneuvers according to plan

PALO ALTO, Calif. – September 12, 2017 — SSL,  a leading provider of innovative satellites and spacecraft systems, today announced that the multi-mission Amazonas 5 satellite, designed and built for HISPASAT, was launched yesterday and is successfully performing post-launch maneuvers according to plan. The satellite deployed its solar arrays on schedule following its launch aboard a Proton Breeze M launch vehicle provided by International Launch Services (ILS), and it will begin firing its main thruster tomorrow to propel toward its final geostationary orbit. The satellite will be used for video content delivery and internet connectivity in Latin America.

"It is an honor to support HISPASAT in its efforts to bridge the digital divide in Latin America," said Dario Zamarian, group president, SSL. "SSL is focused on technology advances that drive value for our customers and help maintain satellite's important role as part of the world's greater telecommunications infrastructure. With Amazonas 5 we have provided a satellite with state-of-the-art technology for advanced television services and fast and affordable broadband."

Amazonas 5 has 34 Ka-band spot beams and 24 Ku-band transponders, which will be used for broadband internet services, television, corporate networks, and other telecommunications applications in Brazil and Latin America. With this new satellite, the HISPASAT Group will help provide connectivity services to more than half a million people in Latin America and Brazil, and will enable broadcasting 500 new TV channels.

"SSL has been an innovative and reliable manufacturing partner in the expansion of our satellite fleet, and we are pleased that the satellite is performing as expected," said Carlos Espinós, chief executive officer of HISPASAT. "As a leader in content delivery and connectivity via satellite, Amazonas 5 helps us meet the demand for advanced television services and fast broadband Latin America."

Amazonas 5 is the third satellite that SSL has provided to HISPASAT and the company is also building HISPASAT 30W-6, which is expected to launch later this year. SSL built Amazonas 3, Latin America's first satellite with a high throughput payload for broadband internet, and HISPASAT 30W-5, which was launched in 2010. Based on the SSL 1300 platform, Amazonas 5 will be located at 61°W longitude and is designed to provide service for 15 years or more.
