EUTELSAT 65 WEST A is a geostationary satellite located at 65 degrees west longitude, covering a zone stretching from the United States to Antarctica, with additional visibility over Western Europe, with primary focus on Latin America. One of the satellite's first missions will be to provide extra capacity for the spike in broadcast demand expected at the Rio Olympics in August. Outfitted with transponders in C-band, Ku-band and Ka-band, Eutelsat's newest satellite will relay video between Latin America and Europe, broadcast television channels directly to millions of homes in Brazil, and supply customers with broadband Internet access.
