Hyderabad-based XDLINX Labs<\/strong>, an end-to-end nano and microsatellite platform developer, announced that it has secured a contract with US-based Almagest Space Corporation<\/strong> to build, launch, and operate in-orbit XDLINX’s XDSAT-NS<\/strong> satellite integrated with the world’s first miniaturized space-grade E-band communication payload developed by XDLINX for Almagest.<\/p>\n

The satellite, which will be powered by Antaris Space’s Cloud Software Platform and SatOS onboard software, will support Almagest’s Elevation E-band technology demonstration mission in low-earth-orbit (LEO) planned for mid-late 2024.<\/p>\n

XDLINX will execute the Elevation mission in collaboration with Antaris and Ananth Technologies, an India-based aerospace technology company. This mission will provide Almagest with the foundation for its planned E-band global LEO two-way optically connected satellite network for ultra-high throughput data delivery services. Almagest will then begin network deployment and provide limited commercial service with its two-satellite TwinStar<\/strong> mission planned for 2025-2026.<\/p>\n

Commenting on the development, Rupesh Gandupalli, <\/strong>XDLINX’s CEO and Co-founder<\/strong>, said, “This cooperation with Almagest represents a pivotal step forward in pushing the boundaries of space technology. We are proud to lead the charge in unlocking E-band’s transformative potential, redefining the future of space communication, and ushering in a new era of unparalleled connectivity.”<\/p>\n

Tom Barton, <\/strong>Antaris’ CEO and Co-Founder<\/strong>, said, “We are pleased to be a part of Almagest’s ground-breaking first mission. It is a perfect use case demonstrating how our Antaris Space Software platform can enable a very rapid mission timeline.” <\/p>\n

“Ananth Technologies is pleased to be collaborating with Almagest and XDLINX on this novel demonstration project as the systems manufacturing and Satellite AIT partner,” added Dr. Subba Rao Pavuluri<\/strong>, Chairman and Managing Director of Ananth Technologies.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong>Almagest’s CEO and Co-founder, Raghu Das<\/strong>, said, “The commercial development of space-based E-band technologies is rapidly accelerating due to ever-increasing global demand for high-capacity systems that deliver high throughput data at a reasonable cost. Our Elevation mission is the first step towards creating a robust global constellation that will provide truly high-throughput services to meet high-capacity demand anywhere in the world, and we are very excited to be working with XDLINX and its partners to make our vision become a reality. We look forward to moving beyond Elevation and start providing early commercial point-to-point services commencing with our two-satellite TwinStar mission by 2026 before moving into high gear with the continued phased deployment of our planned gen-1 multi-satellite global constellation.”  <\/p>\n
