Granite Signs Authorized Reseller Agreement with Starlink

Granite Telecommunications – a $1.8B provider of communications and technology solutions for multi-location businesses and government agencies – finalized an agreement to become an authorized reseller of Starlink, the satellite internet service engineered and operated by SpaceX. The deal will allow Granite to resell Starlink LEO satellite network services, providing an additional solution for high-speed, low-latency internet to enterprise customers virtually anywhere in the U.S. and Canada. 

SpaceX, which is already the world’s leading provider of launch services, is applying its deep experience in spacecraft and on-orbit operations to deploy an advanced broadband satellite internet system. By utilizing LEO satellites that orbit closer to Earth, Starlink can deliver reliable high-speed internet to remote regions where existing options are either too costly, unreliable or unavailable. Additionally, as an always-on, high-speed service, Starlink can be used as a primary and secondary option to protect against outages and disaster scenarios. 

As an enhancement to Starlink service, Granite integrates Starlink kits with its patented edgebootPro solution. This advanced, managed power-distribution unit (PDU) leverages AI-driven capabilities to promote continuous connectivity, proactive monitoring, diagnostics and automated failover response. Combined with Granite managed network services and an intuitive user portal, the integration streamlines network management for mult-ilocation businesses and governmental agencies, while maximizing Starlink’s resiliency. 

“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. “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. 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.” 

Starlink’s rapidly growing constellation offers broader coverage than geostationary alternatives, delivering internet access to underserved areas with limited or unreliable terrestrial options. With its global reach, this satcom solution offers multi-location businesses a dependable, redundant and consistent option to connect geographically dispersed sites, enabling effortless scalability through a cohesive solution.
