Agila-2 Satellite

aguila

Agila-II carries 30 C-Band transponders with 27 watt amplifiers and 24 Ku-band transponders with 110 watt amplifiers--more than enough capacity to relay 50,000 simultaneous two-way telephone conversations and 190 channels of digital TV programming.

The spacecraft is presently located at 144 degrees east longitude. The Aguila satellite control and management facilities are located at the MPSC Space Center in the Subic Bay Freeport Zone.

Agila-II's C-band capacity is used by the Philippine Long Distance Telephone Company (PLDT) and Pilipino Telephone Corporation (Piltel) for additional trunk circuits, as well as for the relay of transpacific traffic. P.T. Pasifik Satelit Nusantara (PSN) of Indonesia also controls two C-band transponders on this satellite, which are primarily used to implement PSN's VSAT solutions for the region's business community.

Agila-II's C-band capacity also empowers personal and corporate users with sophisticated voice and data facilities that can even permit Internet access with downlink capabilities of up to 15 Mbps.
