Ka-Band (26.5-40 GHz) offers higher bandwidth and data throughput but is more susceptible to rain fade, while Ku-Band (12-18 GHz) provides more reliable performance in adverse weather with somewhat lower capacity. C-Band, at 4-8 GHz, sits below both, offering the most weather resilience and stable links, making it ideal for broadcast and maritime applications.
