Switzerland-based satellite communication (SATCOM) products manufacturer SWISSto12 has released the HummingLink-SOTP, a terminal for geostationary orbit (GEO) connectivity reported to combine a small form factor, high portability, quick deployment and high throughput.

SWISSto12 said it designed the HummingLink-SOTP for GEO SATCOM-on-the-pause (SOTP) connectivity.
