Satellite communications hardware and modems for VSAT networks and LEO constellations
SpaceBridge designs and manufactures satellite modems and VSAT hub equipment for broadband and defense applications, with roots in the industry since 1988. The company's tech foundation spans embedded C/C++ and networking protocols (BGP, MPLS, IPsec), and active projects center on modem firmware, hub integration, and market expansion — but quality assurance and test automation appear as recurring friction points, suggesting manufacturing-scale challenges as the product line grows into new verticals.
