Why it matters

Space communication is imperative for sovereign capabilities.

Space communication is critical to sovereign capability, national security, and economic growth. Yet, as satellite numbers surge, ground station infrastructure has failed to keep pace stuck with legacy dish systems that are costly, slow to scale, require more land, and aren’t sustainable. A new approach is urgently needed one that reduces footprint, scales effortlessly, and lowers costs while increasing capacity.

How it works

Quasar’s ground station technology will support up to hundreds of simultaneous satellite communications channels and missions on a single antenna

QuasarSat has developed a software-defined multibeam antenna powered by sovereign IP. Unlike traditional dishes, a single QuasarSat antenna can support dozens of simultaneous satellite connections all orchestrated and scaled via software. This means fewer ground stations, faster deployment, and dramatically more capacity per site. Customers integrate easily using standard protocols and APIs, unlocking secure, real-time access to satellites without the overhead of legacy systems.
