News Summary:

Eutelsat partnered with Dejero for a "Field to Air" live demonstration at NAB 2026, scheduled for April 19–22 in Las Vegas, showcasing how six major broadcast technology partners will connect through a single signal chain powered by Dejero TITAN Command. Previously, on March 18, Eutelsat Group CEO Eva Berneke outlined the company's strategic pivot from a traditional video-centric Geostationary (GEO) operator to a vertically integrated multi-orbit connectivity provider, emphasizing the full integration of the OneWeb Low Earth Orbit (LEO) constellation and the development of its second-generation (Gen 2) network. Earlier the same day, Eutelsat, alongside UK-based Excelerate Technology and Livewire Digital, launched NOMADLINK, a rapidly deployable communications solution for emergencies, large public events, and remote areas across the UK, supported by the UK Space Agency and the European Space Agency’s ARTES programme. This follows Eutelsat's termination of contracts with the Russian state’s AT1 and AT2 satellites on March 16, after specialists declared the AT1 satellite completely lost following unsuccessful attempts to restore its operability. Both broadcast satellites were launched in 2014.
