Bogor - Towards the end of the Telkom-2 Satellite assignment, Telkomsat will carry out the process of migrating traffic from the Telkom-2 Satellite to the Telkom-3S Satellite and Merah Putih Satellite. This last migration process was carried out at the Satellite Master Control Station, on April 12, 2021.

The migration was carried out by experienced employees from Telkomsat and witnessed directly by Anggoro Kurnianto Widiawan as COO of Telkomsat, Joko Sarwono as PGS VP Service Delivery and VP Network Operation, as well as senior Leaders from Telkomsat.

"Alhamdulillah, we have succeeded in migrating the latest traffic from Telkom-2 Satellite to other Telkom satellites. By emptying this traffic, the service period of the Telkom-2 satellite has been completed for more than 15 years to unify communications in Indonesia. " said Anggoro Kurnianto Widiawan.

The traffic migration process on the Telkom-2 Satellite has been successfully carried out and this indicates that the service period of Telkom-2 has been completed. In addition, Anggoro said that he would plan a De-Orbit process at the end of May 2021.

"After the migration is carried out, the Telkom-2 Satellite is ready to do De-Orbit. The De-Orbit process will be planned for the end of May 2021. Hopefully this process will run smoothly and successfully. " He said.

As we know, the Telkom-2 Satellite is a satellite managed by Telkomsat and was successfully launched using the Ariane 5 rocket, on November 17, 2005 in Kourou, Guyana, France.

The presence of the Telkom-2 Satellite is shown to support the backbone transmission communication system which includes long distance direct line (SLJJ) telecommunications services, international direct dial (IDD), internet, and communication networks for military. The Telkom-2 satellite has coverage covering Southeast Asia and the Indian subcontinent.

With this migration, it is a commitment from Telkomsat to continue to provide the best connectivity services through adequate infrastructure.
