Comtech and E-Space Collaborate to Develop Space-Powered Communications Solutions and IoT Services

Comtech and E-Space, the company bridging Earth and space to enable hyper-scaled deployments of Internet of Things (IoT) solutions and services, announced a teaming agreement to collaborate, develop and deploy innovative space-based communications solutions and IoT services to support predominantly government and targeted commercial customers.

The collaboration will leverage Comtech’s vast portfolio of innovative technologies and strategic partnerships, coupled with E-Space’s future advanced space system, inclusive of its global low Earth orbit (LEO) constellation and unique device capabilities, to provide customers with secure, resilient global connectivity services. The E-Space space system, optimized with edge Artificial Intelligence (edge AI), will enable the delivery of new smart applications, real-time actionable insights and suggested courses of action.

"Continuous connectivity is a fundamental need in today’s information-driven society that will generate ongoing demand to blend terrestrial, wireless and satellite networks,” said Ken Peterman, President and CEO, of Comtech. “By teaming with E-Space, we will provide end users with reliable, global connectivity to enable near real-time predictive insights that will drive efficiency, reduce operator burden and empower individuals by providing access to new technologies.”

Greg Wyler, founder, chairman and CEO of E-Space, added, “Combining the expertise and resources from Comtech and E-Space will help revolutionize the way defense and commercial companies leverage space-powered data to connect, communicate and put intelligence into action. From providing warfighters up-to-the-minute situational awareness to ensuring logistics providers have incredible insights into every asset in a shipment – we will be able to provide unique information sets that will enable smarter operations.”

E-Space is building a satellite infrastructure that will blur the line between satellite and terrestrial communications network capabilities for delivering IoT connectivity. E-Space’s advanced technology will enable a new class of ubiquitous, real-time communications capabilities, which is expected to reduce device costs and increase coverage.

Comtech delivers innovative approaches to automate workflows, enhance safety, improve reliability and reduce system downtime. The Company holds hundreds of patents spanning terrestrial and satellite communications as well as location-based services, and its technologies are currently fielded in over 200 countries. Comtech is expanding its already vast portfolio of solutions and services through EVOKE, Comtech’s Innovation Foundry, as well as through strategic partnerships with world-class innovators, like E-Space. These relationships provide customers with unprecedented access to data and insights that deliver meaningful value and uncover a number of new economic growth opportunities in diverse global markets.
