Inter-Satellite Links

Optical laser communication between satellites enables data routing entirely in orbit, bypassing terrestrial networks.

Laser Links

Free-space optical communication at 10 Gbps per link. Each satellite maintains 4 active inter-satellite connections.

Range: 5,000+ km

Mesh Routing

Distributed routing protocol automatically finds optimal paths. Traffic reroutes instantly if a satellite is unavailable.

Failover: <100ms

Encryption

End-to-end encryption on all inter-satellite links. Quantum-resistant key exchange protocols.

Standard: AES-256-GCM

Ground Infrastructure

Distributed ground stations provide terrestrial network integration while maintaining censorship resistance.

Gateway Stations

  • High-Throughput Antennas
    Ka-band phased array with 100+ Gbps capacity
  • Geographic Distribution
    Stations in 12+ countries for redundancy
  • Peering Points
    Direct IX connections for low-latency egress

Omega Integration

  • Direct Uplink
    Omega Routers connect directly to satellites
  • Hybrid Mode
    Seamless failover between terrestrial and satellite
  • Mesh Extension
    Omega devices extend satellite coverage locally
