High latency does have an impact on some applications, however, NewSat have created world-class solutions to address these. Applications such as Terminal Services, Thin-Client and VoIP have traditionally been affected by high-latency connections, but NewSat have successfully implemented these technologies across our satellite networks.

"Extensive tests with the Victorian State Government's Spatial Information Unit for high precision automated farming have shown that recent (2006-07) developments in satellite technology by this research group are world-beating and the delays are so minimal that farm machinery operational tolerances have been reduced
from a world-wide standard of two or three metres to just ten millimetres as a result of improvements in satellite
performance, latency and management of information."


"..I think its because NewSat have a priority on voice packets, the conversation is crystal clear and the latency is no different to talking to someone overseas..."

"..We are a satellite broadband reseller (NewSat, APN). We tested several VoIP solutions and decided in favour of engin Voice Box. So we are also now an engin reseller.

I have used engin Voice Box over my mobile sat dish, on a 512/256k service, for several months. It generally works very well, and latency is often not noticed by people I call .."
