Telesat<\/strong>, one of the world\u2019s largest and most innovative satellite operators and Calian Group Ltd.<\/strong>, a trusted provider of mission-critical solutions for defence, space, healthcare and other critical infrastructure sectors, announced an engagement to develop the operational data platform for the Telesat Lightspeed Low Earth Orbit (LEO) network. Calian will design, develop, integrate and deploy the Telesat Lightspeed Operational Data Platform, which will form the secure, real-time data backbone across Telesat\u2019s LEO satellite constellation, Landing Stations and User Terminals.<\/p>\n

\u201cCalian\u2019s expertise in designing resilient data systems is essential as we deliver a global network that provides mission-critical connectivity for defence, enterprise, telecom and mobility markets,\u201d said Michel Forest<\/strong>, Telesat\u2019s Chief Technology Officer<\/strong>. \u201cWith decades of proven performance in designing custom solutions for Telesat, we\u2019re confident that Calian is the right partner to implement this key platform for the Telesat Lightspeed system.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Operational Data Platform will support bi-directional, asynchronous data flows and high availability across multiple domains enabling real-time situational awareness, automated mission response, and secure data exchange between the Telesat Lightspeed network components and various operational and business platforms that leverage the system data.<\/p>\n

\u201cTelesat Lightspeed represents a vital step forward in building Canada\u2019s strategic national capability with ubiquitous, secure connectivity that can be accessed anywhere in the world,\u201d said Chris Pogue<\/strong>, President, Defence and Space, Calian<\/strong>.  \u201cCalian has long been committed to excellence in space and defence, ensuring customers have the right solutions built for their current and future needs. From NORAD modernization to remote broadband connectivity and beyond, we\u2019re proud to deliver the secure digital infrastructure that supports Canada\u2019s next-generation satellite network.\u201d<\/p>\n

Calian will build the Operational Data Platform using its proprietary Centralized Management Platform (CMP) as the architectural foundation, ensuring high performance, robust security, and extensibility across public and private cloud environments. This contract is an expansion of Calian\u2019s ongoing role in the Telesat Lightspeed program. In 2024, Telesat selected Calian to deliver the LEO network\u2019s Element Management System (EMS), which manages and monitors the operational health of key network assets like User Terminals, Landing Station antennas and onboard satellite systems. The agreement is between Calian Group Ltd. and Telesat LEO ULC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Telesat Corporation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
