Summary

  • WEI unveiled WEI Connect, a managed Starlink-based service aimed at getting fixed or mobile enterprise sites online in hours instead of the 60 to 180 days typical for fiber or coax circuits.
  • Starlink hardware is paired with WEI’s preconfigured deployment kits, local installation and integration with SD-WAN and SASE platforms from Cisco, Fortinet, Palo Alto Networks, HPE Aruba and Cato.
  • The offering targets resiliency and operations as much as speed, positioning Starlink as both primary and backup connectivity with centralized visibility into performance, usage, costs, latency and site health.
  • 24x7 support underpins the service, with stocked inventory, spare hardware, SLAs for four-hour response or next-business-day replacement, and more than 4,000 certified field technicians across North America.
  • The launch reflects a broader push to make satellite internet enterprise-ready by wrapping Starlink’s Mini, Standard and Performance terminals in managed services, monitoring and procurement-friendly billing.
