All these monthly plans promise a peak of 350Mbps download and 40Mbps upload speeds. Once the Data Cap is reached, throttled speed will just be 1Mbps uplink and 1Mbps downlink.

Data Lake stated the limitations of this service, as quoted:

The Service is a “medium-latency” service given that the satellites are in low earth orbit (LEO) some 1,200 km above the earth. Typical latency is in the range of 20 – 300ms although higher ping times are not uncommon depending on interconnection and ping destination. It may not be suitable for uses such as network arcade gaming, high-speed trading or specialized remote control systems where lower latency may be required.

We reported earlier that the expected monthly service fee for residential kits will be in the Php5,500 range but that figure is now uncertain given the number shown here. It is possible that Residential Kits will remain in the $599 but the speed and data cap will be much lower than the ones being offered here.
