The proof of concept tests for the satellite's efficiencies showed speeds and complete system reliability consistent and similar to top-of-class land-based Internet connectivity. The testing of various applications including video uploads, video conferencing, Cloud applications, and VPN used over 10 devices connected simultaneously to the hotspot. The download speeds were measured at over 10 Mbps and upload speeds of over 20 Mbps per device.
