FAQ

Frequently asked questions answered

What is multi-path satellite connectivity?

Multi-path connectivity combines multiple network paths with automatic failover. When one path fails, traffic routes via alternatives in sub-second timeframes, eliminating single points of failure.

Why choose multi-path over single-path connectivity?

Single-path solutions create vulnerability - when that path fails, connectivity is lost. Multi-path provides 99.99%+ uptime through path diversity, essential for mission-critical operations.

What industries does Orion serve?

Orion serves mining, energy, oil and gas, agriculture, construction, government, maritime, and transport sectors - any industry requiring reliable connectivity in remote locations.
