Intelsat VII
Intelsat 706 (also known as IS-706 and Intelsat 7-F6 ) is a geostationary communication satellite that was built by Space Systems/Loral (SSL ). It is located in the orbital position of 157 degrees east longitude and it is currently in an inclined orbit . The same is owned by Intelsat . The satellite was based on the LS-1300 platform and its estimated useful life was 15 years.[5]
The satellite was successfully launched into space on May 17, 1995,[5] at 06:34, using an Ariane 4 vehicle from the Guiana Space Centre , Kourou , French Guiana .[5] It had a launch mass of 4,180 kg.
The Intelsat 706 is equipped with 26 transponders in C band and 10 in Ku band to provide broadcasting, business-to-home services and telecommunications . It was positioned over the Atlantic Ocean and has the transponder capacity to relay 110,000 telephone calls simultaneously.[6]
