Intellian And Network Innovations Announce Strategic Deal

Intellian Technologies Inc., a global provider of satellite communications technologies, and Network Innovations, a technology systems integrator focused on government, military and enterprise sectors, have formed a strategic partnership to jointly develop and distribute next-generation tactical ground Wideband Global SATCOM (WGS) flyaway terminals for military and government customers.

Leveraging Network Innovations' more than 20 years of real-world operational experience supporting military and WGS users on demanding missions, the new flyaway terminal platform is intended to be the first to support simultaneous Mil-X, Mil Ka-band and commercial Ka- and Ku-band connectivity, with electronic switching across an extended Ka-band range. Purpose-built for operations on the WGS constellation, it is engineered to provide secure, resilient, high-capacity communications for expeditionary forces and other mission-critical deployments. The deployable systems can be operational in as little as 30 minutes and are designed from the outset for multi-band, multi-orbit operations across LEO, MEO, GEO and HEO constellations. The platform is also being designed for interoperability with leading and emerging satellite networks, as well as sovereign NGSO constellations.

Built for demanding environments, the flyaway terminals are being engineered to achieve full WGS certification and to comply with key MIL-SPEC requirements. Intellian also plans to introduce non-WGS commercial variants of the platform, extending the technology to a broader range of government, enterprise and critical communications applications.

"Developing our first tactical ground WGS flyaway platform represents an important expansion of Intellian's military and government portfolio," said Eric Sung, CEO of Intellian. "By combining simultaneous X-band and Military Ka-band capability, access to wider commercial Ka frequencies, and multi-orbit connectivity in a rapidly deployable architecture, we are addressing the increasingly complex communications requirements of modern defense operations. Our goal is to give operators greater flexibility, resilience, and assured connectivity wherever their missions take them."
