SES Broadband is owned and operated by SES Broadband Services, a subsidiary of SES,[1] based in Betzdorf, Luxembourg.
SES Broadband provides high-speed Internet access (at up to 10 Mbit/s[2]) at a flat rate cost to end users, along with Voice over IP, IPTV, and content-on-demand facilities, without any requirement for a landline, cable or terrestrial wireless connection.[3]
Until March 2012, SES Broadband was called 'ASTRA2Connect' and the operating company 'ASTRA Broadband Services'. The name was changed in line with the rebranding of parent company SES.[4]
