Yes, the system supports Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) coverage. Our network connects existing devices over existing satellites, functioning just like international roaming.
NTN technology is built on top of the latest cellular industry standards (3GPP NTN), so there is no need for separate modems or antennas, making satellite connectivity affordable and accessible to all.
We utilize a standards-based approach from the 3GPP Release 17 Mobile Broadband Standard in conjunction with a standard mobile core and our own eNodeB.
We currently utilize the NB-NTN protocol. This means that any compatible device that utilizes this protocol is a candidate for NTN connectivity.
We partner with existing, established satellite connectivity companies with existing satellites across a range of spectrum bands (across the MSS L & S bands) that are compatible with cellular devices.
We leverage partnerships with multiple satellite operators globally. This allows us to work with the entire satellite ecosystem, ensuring that we have the best coverage and capacity wherever our customers want service.
We support many device types, as long as the device supports 3GPP Release 17 Mobile Broadband Standard and the antenna is in NB-IoT form factor.
There are multiple modem manufacturers that have certified their solution with us like Compal, Murata, Quectel, Telit and more.
We have global coverage support, if there are specific details that are not clear, please contact our sales and support teams.

Yes, we support multi-IMSI configuration! In this case there are several IMSIs that reside on the SIM and one of them is used to connect to satellites. Transitioning from the cellular network to the NTN can be done automatically, according to configured parameters or using the device level API that controls the SIM connectivity.
Switching back from satellite connectivity to cellular can be done through the device level API.
Yes! This can be done and keep regular connection interface between the device and the satellite. This is relevant in use cases where there is no cellular connection, and the transmission patterns are relevant for satellites (low usage).
You can send up to two messages per minute, where a message is capped by 256 Bytes. The latency is expected to be for the uplink :10 - 20 seconds, and for the downlink: 3 - 15 seconds.
We support data services mainly, that means that we are focused on NB-NTN, we do not support SMS and streaming services, such as voice, music, or video.
