Heuristic estimate from public data, not a market quote. A baseline is multiplied by arc desirability, occupancy, operator tier, spectrum, and arc scarcity. See the methodology in docs.

Pan-Asian C-band position covering 53 countries. Serves enterprise data networks, government relay, and connectivity infrastructure across the Asia-Pacific region. C-band penetrates weather and terrain conditions where Ku-band cannot.
