Private networking over Starlink.

Private network handoff

Aggregate Starlink traffic and hand it off directly to your network or cloud for secure, controlled connectivity.

Low-latency LEO backhaul

High-performance satellite connectivity designed for enterprise and government applications.

Operational visibility

Flexible data pooling, performance monitoring, and APIs for real-time insight.

24/7 support and field service

Global deployment assistance and ongoing support from the ELCOME NOC.

Layer 2 Private Ethernet (EVPL / L2VPN)

A transparent Ethernet extension that lets your network team keep full control of routing, segmentation, and overlays.

Layer 3 Managed IP (eBGP)

A routed handoff where ELCOME provides the first hop and aggregates traffic for simple integration.

How the PNI service fits into your network

Starlink user terminals connect remote sites to the satellite network, while ELCOME provides the private handoff to your core network or cloud environment within the same country. Traffic stays private by default and your team retains end-to-end visibility.

• ✓Secure satellite backhaul with encrypted underlay
• ✓In-country private handoff to your network or cloud targets
• ✓Optional internet breakout when needed
• ✓Monitoring, reporting, and support from the ELCOME NOC

With PNI, two or more Starlink terminals within the same country can form a private Layer 2 bridge without either site needing fiber, MPLS, or any terrestrial last mile. Traffic flows from one Starlink terminal through the LEO constellation to a SpaceX ground station, through ELCOME’s in-country private interconnect, and back up to the second terminal — all without ever touching the public internet.

ELCOME’s PNI service can hand off Starlink traffic directly to major cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud via private peering or cross-connect at an in-country interconnection facility. This turns every Starlink terminal into a cloud-connected edge node, whether it is installed at a fixed site, on a vehicle, or aboard a coastal vessel — as long as the terminal and cloud handoff are in the same country.

For mobile network operators (MNOs) and ISPs that need to extend coverage into domestic regions with little or no terrestrial backhaul, Starlink PNI with an eBGP routed handoff provides a production-grade alternative. ELCOME aggregates traffic from one or many Starlink terminals and delivers it to the operator’s in-country core network over a BGP peering session, allowing the carrier to announce and manage their own IP prefixes end-to-end.

When a wildfire, hurricane, or flooding event takes out local cell towers and power, first responders lose the connectivity they rely on for coordination. With Starlink PNI, a fire command post, mobile hospital, or emergency operations center can establish a private network link back to dispatch and state systems in minutes — without depending on any local infrastructure.

Banks, credit unions, and ATM operators expanding into underserved or rural markets often face a difficult choice: pay for expensive MPLS circuits or compromise on security with public-internet VPNs. Starlink PNI provides a private path from a branch or ATM location directly to the bank’s core data center or cloud, satisfying the same network isolation requirements as a dedicated leased line.

Oil and gas producers, wind farm operators, and electric utilities manage thousands of remote assets — wellheads, substations, turbines, solar arrays — spread across regions with no fiber access. These sites generate critical operational-technology (OT) data that must stay isolated from the public internet. Starlink PNI gives each site a private Ethernet or routed connection back to the control center without building a terrestrial network.

Live events, news crews, and production teams increasingly operate in locations — stadiums, rural venues, disaster zones — where shared internet connections cannot guarantee the sustained upstream bandwidth that live video requires. With Starlink PNI, the production feed travels over a private, dedicated path from the venue to the broadcaster’s playout facility or cloud encoder, avoiding the congestion and unpredictability of the public internet.

Large retail and restaurant brands operate hundreds or thousands of locations, many in strip malls, rural towns, or newly developed areas where commercial broadband is unreliable or slow. Each location runs point-of-sale, inventory management, digital signage, and security cameras — all of which need a stable, secure connection to HQ. Starlink PNI lets the chain connect every store over a single private network, regardless of whether the location has good terrestrial broadband or not.

Rural hospitals, tribal health clinics, and mobile medical units often lack the network infrastructure to securely transmit patient records, medical imaging, and real-time telehealth video. Public internet connections in these areas are typically slow and create compliance concerns around patient data. Starlink PNI provides a private network path from the clinic to the health system’s EHR platform and cloud, helping satisfy the same network-isolation expectations as a hospital’s on-campus LAN.

Schools in rural and island communities, university field research stations, and domestic distance-education programs struggle with connectivity that is too slow for modern digital learning and data-intensive research. Starlink PNI connects these sites directly to a university’s core network or a school district’s data center within the same country, enabling the same applications — LMS platforms, video collaboration, cloud storage — that urban campuses take for granted.

Port operators, coastal shipping companies, and offshore logistics firms need their tugs, barges, coastal warehouses, and nearshore vessels on the same private network as their shore-side operations — for ERP access, container tracking, and crew HR systems. Public internet from port Wi-Fi is unsecured, and traditional VSAT is too slow. Starlink PNI connects coastal vessels and port facilities to HQ over a private path at broadband speeds, as long as the vessel and the network handoff are in the same country.
