Palo Alto, CA: Apolink, a satellite data relay provider, is partnering with ground station companies to offer its near–real-time and continuous capabilities for monitoring and controlling assets in low Earth orbit to their customers, in what Apolink calls a ‘reseller cooperation and partnership.”
Through this partnership, RBC Signals, a space data connectivity provider, intends to serve as a reseller of Apolink’s relay services, enabling satellite operators worldwide to access real-time, in-orbit connectivity through RBC Signals’ established commercial channels. In parallel, Apolink plans to leverage RBC Signals’ ground segment services as part of the end-mile teleport for its relay network architecture.
Single-satellite operators and emerging constellation operators gain access to real-time, in-orbit connectivity that was previously unavailable, enabling faster data downlinks and more responsive missions. At the same time, sovereign space programs around the world can leverage a secure, controlled communications backhaul to manage and protect their national space assets.
“We’d like to focus on how we can collaborate with ground segment players to enable connectivity that should have been available for use at least a decade ago,” said Mr. Onkar Batra, CEO of Apolink. “RBC Signals’ global footprint and trusted customer relationships align perfectly with our vision of providing seamless, low-latency connectivity in orbit. Together, we are advancing a new model for how operators access mission-critical data.”
“We are very excited to work with Apolink as they bring an innovative relay architecture to the market,” said Ron Faith, CEO of RBC Signals. “Integrating their space-based capabilities with our ground network enhances the options available to spacecraft operators and strengthens the ecosystem of real-time mission support.”
