CesiumAstro builds scalable, software-defined communication systems that work out of the box. Our product line spans single-beam downlink solutions to multi-beam, full-duplex systems, engineered to meet mission demands across space, air, and ground domains.
Element is a general-purpose, high-performance satellite built around CesiumAstro’s own payload technology. Designed as an all-in-one platform, Element reduces cost, risk, and time to mission—delivering out-of-the-box connectivity for government and commercial customers.
Vireo is a multi-beam active phased array system for high-throughput satellites. Designed to meet state-of-the-art performance requirements, it delivers exceptional capability for constellations operating under aggressive SWaP-C targets.
Skylark delivers continuous, high-speed connectivity for air and ground platforms. Its flat-panel AESA design ensures reliable performance with zero moving parts, supporting seamless handoff between constellations and orbits.
Nightingale integrates a software-defined radio and ultra-wideband phased array antenna into a complete, plug-and-play communication system. Its reconfigurable architecture supports multiple protocols and adaptable beam steering for versatile mission use.
A full-duplex, multi-channel communications processor engineered for space operations. Operating across commercial and defense Ka-band frequencies, it supports DVB-S2 and DVB-S2X modulation schemes with full on-orbit reconfigurability.
A compact, high-performance software-defined radio built for low-Earth orbit operation and beyond.
A credit-card-sized computer designed for space missions, featuring a quad-core processor, ECC memory, mass storage, redundancy, and multiple data interfaces in a compact form factor.
A wideband converter for space environments with an onboard frequency synthesizer and low power consumption. Supports TDD up/down conversion with 1 GHz instantaneous bandwidth and flexible IF channel combinations.
A ruggedized, multi-gigabit-per-second SDR in a 3U Space VPX form factor, built for airborne, LEO, GEO, lunar, and deep-space missions.
Built around Xilinx Versal Prime (1802) and Versal AI Core (1902) FPGAs, the RDP-23FV delivers AI-driven processing, reconfigurable flexibility, and flight-ready performance for advanced missions.
A high-efficiency, flight-qualified power module designed to meet the stringent requirements of rugged, high-reliability systems.
The Nightingale Development Kit replicates flight configurations to provide a complete bits-to-RF test environment. It includes standard lab cable connections, antenna hats for over-the-air testing, and mounting points for RF range integration, enabling rapid prototyping and qualification.
