Digicel Business Launches Satellite Connectivity in Trinidad & Tobago

New solution strengthens business continuity and disaster recovery preparedness

Port of Spain, Trinidad — Tuesday, October 6, 2026 — Digicel Business today announced the launch of satellite-enabled connectivity solutions in Trinidad and Tobago, providing businesses with a secure, resilient backup connectivity option designed to strengthen business continuity and operational readiness.

Digicel Business will offer satellite connectivity services, expanding its managed networking capabilities for businesses across Trinidad & Tobago. The solution provides organisations with an additional layer of resilience and protection, helping maintain critical operations during service disruptions and extreme weather events.

This service will be integrated into Digicel Business' managed networking portfolio. Rather than managing multiple providers and connectivity solutions independently, customers benefit from a fully managed service that combines fibre and satellite connectivity under a single provider, with proactive monitoring, centralised support and end-to-end network management. This allows organisations to strengthen business continuity while reducing complexity for internal IT teams.

In addition to serving as a backup solution, satellite connectivity can also help connect remote, rural and off-net locations where traditional connectivity options may be limited or unavailable.

"Businesses rely on Digicel to deliver connectivity that is secure, resilient and tailored to the realities of operating in this market," said Gerardo Rivera Menjivar, General Manager, Digicel Business Trinidad & Tobago. "With satellite backup integrated into our managed services portfolio, customers gain an added layer of protection without the complexity of managing multiple connectivity providers. We handle the network, monitoring and support, so businesses can focus on running their operations with confidence."

"Satellite-enabled connectivity complements the resilient networking solutions Digicel Business delivers to customers across our footprint," said Salvador Hierrezuelo, Chief Business Officer at Digicel. "Launching this capability in Trinidad & Tobago reflects our commitment to delivering innovative solutions that help businesses strengthen continuity, improve preparedness and stay connected when it matters most."

Digicel Business continues to invest in innovative technologies that help businesses and governments operate with confidence. The addition of satellite-enabled connectivity strengthens Digicel Business' portfolio of mobile, fibre, private networking and managed services in Trinidad & Tobago, reinforcing its commitment to delivering resilient, enterprise-grade connectivity for organisations across the country.
