SpaceX has rocketed its way to the forefront of space exploration and innovation. The company is on a bold mission to reduce the cost of space travel and make humanity multiplanetary. Falcon 9 and the towering Starship in development for missions to Mars are prime examples of SpaceX’s ambitions.
Then there’s Starlink, SpaceX’s satellite-based internet service. With thousands of low-Earth-orbit (LEO) satellites already beaming down connectivity, Starlink aims to provide high-speed internet to even the most remote corners of the globe. Things like mountaintop cabins, deep forests and sprawling deserts with their spotty internet could potentially be a thing of the past. Sure, challenges persist, like concerns over space debris and light pollution for astronomers, but the promise of bridging the digital divide is a compelling topic nonetheless.
SpaceX and Starlink’s innovative strides are not just about exploring the cosmos or bridging the digital divide. They’re also opening doors for transformative partnerships here on Earth. Granite Telecommunications, a $1.8 billion provider of communications and technology solutions for multilocation businesses and government agencies as well as a Silver sponsor of MSP Expo 2025, has taken notice of this groundbreaking potential.
Granite recently announced that it finalized an agreement to become an authorized reseller of Starlink. The agreement enables Granite to resell Starlink’s LEO satellite network services, which provides an additional solution for high-speed, low-latency internet to enterprise customers virtually anywhere in the U.S. and Canada.
“We are excited to incorporate Starlink into Granite’s portfolio of solutions that bring competition, choice and innovation to our customers,” said Granite President and CEO Rob Hale.
Granite will pair each Starlink kit with its patented edgebootPro solution, a smart power management system that’s as advanced as it is reliable. Using AI, edgebootPro keeps connections running smoothly with proactive monitoring, instant diagnostics and automatic backups in case something goes wrong.
Add in Granite’s Managed Network Services and an easy-to-use portal, and you’ve got a setup that makes managing networks across multiple locations a breeze. It’s all about helping businesses and government agencies get the most out of Starlink while making sure their internet stays resilient and hassle-free.
“Providing a low-latency, high-performance option that multilocation businesses can seamlessly deploy across their entire network, even in rural and hard-to-reach locations, will add value and expand our service options,” Hale added. “Backed by Granite’s dedicated team of experts, award winning customer service and our one-stop-shop model, we are confident that Starlink’s LEO satellite service will deliver significant benefits to our customers.”
This partnership combines Granite’s expertise in delivering tailored communication solutions with Starlink’s advanced satellite internet technology. It promises to change connectivity for businesses and government operations, even in the most remote locations.
Granite Telecommunications is a Silver sponsor of MSP Expo, taking place in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, February 11-13. MSP Expo is the premier event for MSPs, offering a three-day experience combining conference education, networking opportunities, an exhibit hall full of the latest technologies and solutions to help MSPs build their business, and more. Granite will be in booth #2232 in the exhibit hall.
