Measat: Solar radiation may disrupt satellite signals between March 15 to March 22, with possible outages for Connectme and Astro

This is due to a phenomenon referred to as a solar outage when the sun lines up with both the satellite and the terrestrial base station receiving the signals transmitted by the satellite. — MOHD SAHAR MISNI/The Star

Measat Global has warned users via a Facebook post of a potential service outage for services offered through the satellite communications company's Measat-3a, Measat-3b, and Measat-3d satellites due to solar radiation.

Such services include satellite broadband offered under Measat's Connectme Now and Astro.
