Far EasTone just announced a partnership with Amazon’s LEO (low-earth orbit) satellite internet service, Amazon Leo—landing Amazon Leo as an authorized reseller in Taiwan. The plan: finish integration this year, then start offering services to Taiwanese users next year. Translation: Taiwan’s LEO satellite competition is heating up, and the “backup when the ground network fails” menu is getting wider. Far EasTone says its initial focus will be government and enterprise customers, delivering highly resilient connectivity with up to 1Gbps download speeds. Amazon Leo is positioned for business-grade high-speed links—especially where terrestrial coverage is weak or where disasters disrupt networks. Why LEO? Compared to geostationary satellites, satellites closer to Earth mean lower latency and better bandwidth support for data-heavy applications. That makes it a strong fit for mountainous areas, maritime zones, and extreme weather regions. Amazon Leo evolved from Project Kuiper, aiming to launch around mid-2026. End-user hardware includes the Leo Ultra terminal, aimed at high-traffic, real-time use cases like remote monitoring, disaster response, mobile command, and large IoT deployments. Next step: regulatory approvals for formal launch. #SatelliteInternet #LEO #TelecomResilience #DisasterRecovery #IoT #AmazonLeo
