IBSAT Becomes Authorized Amazon Leo Distributor Across Spain and Portugal

August 4, 2026

MADRID – August 4, 2026 – Expanding enterprise access to low Earth orbit broadband across the Iberian Peninsula, satellite telecommunications provider IBSAT signed an agreement on August 4, 2026, to serve as an authorized distributor of Amazon Leo services throughout Spain and Portugal.


IBSAT, a subsidiary of BLUETEL WIRELESS registered with Spain’s National Markets and Competition Commission (CNMC), will market Amazon’s low Earth orbit network directly to large corporations, small and medium enterprises, and regional internet service providers.

Terminal Hardware and Performance Specifications

Under the partnership framework, IBSAT will integrate Amazon Leo’s user terminals into its connectivity platform. The commercial rollout features phased-array customer equipment options, headlined by the flagship Leo Ultra model.

The high-performance Leo Ultra terminal delivers download throughput of up to 1 Gbps and upload speeds reaching 400 Mbps. This capacity supports bandwidth-intensive operational workloads, high-frequency data transfers, and critical enterprise applications in regions unserved by terrestrial fiber infrastructure.

Regional Enterprise Market Integration

The distribution deal establishes a structured channel model for more than 80 regional ISPs and commercial sales agents operating within IBSAT’s Iberian ecosystem.

By adding Amazon’s network—formerly known as Project Kuiper—to its multi-orbit telecommunications portfolio, IBSAT targets enterprise deployments across diverse sectors. Key operational verticals include agriculture, maritime transport, energy production, remote construction, healthcare, and industrial Internet of Things networks. The reseller agreement follows similar regional commercial expansions by international channel partners, such as Globalsat Group’s distribution deal across the Americas.

Executive Directives on Iberian Expansion

“This agreement represents an extraordinary business opportunity for our clients and for the more than 80 ISPs and agents that are part of the IBSAT ecosystem,” said Javier Gómez, Chief Executive Officer of IBSAT. “This opportunity will allow IBSAT and our partners to participate in this new and growing market in Spain and Portugal, under a solid and consolidated collaboration model with IBSAT, taking advantage of the full capacity of the Amazon Leo satellite network. From large corporations to micro-enterprises, Amazon Leo offers reliable and secure connectivity, and IBSAT is proud to be part of this project to make it possible.”

Deployment and Commercial Rollout Schedule

IBSAT will immediately integrate Amazon Leo hardware and connectivity packages into its regional commercial catalog, enabling enterprise clients and reseller partners across Spain and Portugal to order managed LEO services ahead of network deployment expansion through late 2026.
