10. VOICE
Lower Latency = Superior Voice Quality
• As the ITU model shows, when there is a one
way latency greater than 200ms, user
satisfaction drops dramatically.
ITU G.114 Voice Quality Model
O3b
GEO
• The long delay of GEO satellites is associated
with poor voice quality and dissatisfied
customers.
• O3b’s much lower latency dramatically
improves voice quality compared to GEO
satellites.
