The SES-8 satellite was successfully co-positioned with the NSS-6 satellite at 95 degrees east. The SES satellites are fully operational and serving the Asia-Pacific region, SES said in a press release (http://bit.ly/1dYFnHG). Through the colocation with NSS-6, SES-8 “not only provides incremental high performance capacity, notably for DTH [direct-to-home] services, but also greater reliability and additional security for SES’s customers at that orbital position,” SES said.
