Gilat Satellite Networks announced that it has received $9 million in orders from major satellite operators. The orders are for its advanced satellite communications platforms, SkyEdge IV and SkyEdge II-c equipment and services.
Satellite operators use Gilat’s SkyEdge technology to provide unparalleled connectivity across multiple satellite constellations. SkyEdge platforms are designed to deliver robust, high-performance satellite communications for a variety of applications, including maritime, cellular backhaul and enterprise solutions.
“We are excited to support satellite operators around the world and being a leading supplier for multi-orbit solutions,” commented Hagay Katz, Chief Product and Marketing Officer at Gilat. “Our SkyEdge platforms were designed to meet the demands of next-generation networks, ensuring seamless multi-orbit integration. These orders underscore our dedication to innovation and our ability to empower satellite operators with the flexibility and scalability required to address diverse market needs.”
More recently, the company closed the acquisition of Stellar Blu Solutiions, a US-based provider of SATCOm terminal solutions.
“This acquisition is a pivotal step in our strategy to expand Gilat’s presence in the growing In-Flight Connectivity (IFC) market,” said Adi Sfadia, CEO, Gilat. “We expect Stellar Blu’s cutting-edge technologies, combined with Gilat’s advanced IFC solutions to position us as a market leader for both commercial and business aviation, as well as adjacent high-end mobility markets that are ideal for Electronically Steered Antenna (ESA) applications.
“With the increasing demand for free, seamless, high-quality in-flight Wi-Fi and Stellar Blu’s pioneering expertise in multi-orbit LEO and GEO IFC solutions, this acquisition enhances Gilat’s ability to meet the most demanding service level agreements in the industry, opening up new growth opportunities in aviation and beyond.”
