Optical Communications Solutions

MBRYONICS has invested into proprietary advanced industrial manufacturing solutions for series production of its products over the last 9 years to enable supply of optical communications solutions for the era of proliferated space.

Our
Services

We support all orbits in cislunar space, where our photonics technologies are deployed on satellite systems for secure communications links, quantum key distribution, data relay systems, satellite optical mesh networks, optical feeder links, direct-to-Earth and deep space missions. For terrestrial applications, we provide rapidly deployable, high-throughput, secure FSO for the last mile and 5G+ networks.

Our
Products

We provide engineering and professional services in the design and manufacture of custom high-specification optics, Opto-mechanical systems and instruments, photonic integrated circuits, photonics, Photonics integrated circuit packaging, assembly and testing, adaptive optics systems, advanced materials, and mechatronics.

Optical Earth-link and Inter-Satellite Link

StarCom

MBRYONICS brings forward the latest in optical communications with its newest StarCom product line for Optical Inter-Satellite Links and Earth Links. StarCom is an industry leading optical communications system with full duplex fibre coupling. This technologically advanced system is industry leading as defined by SWaP, data rates, antenna gain, PAT (pointing, acquisition and tracking), and satellite integration. StarCom also supports dual polarisation and quantum key distribution (QKD).

StarCom is a highly reconfigurable system capable of supporting varying constellation topologies and applications. Our fibre-coupled duplex architecture enables ultra high-speed communications (DWDM), transparent compatibility with any 1550nm third party modems and is compatible with the SDA Standard version 3.0.

StarCom-Interstellar, featuring configurations for deployable in-plane and out-of-plane hemispherical field of regard inter-satellite links.

Less Mass meaning less expense.

The StarCom optical antenna system is made up of two payloads: an optical terminal, i.e., Laser Communication Terminal (LCT), and a separate Antenna Control Unit (ACU); fibre coupling provides for multiplexed and higher order data rates with a full payload functionality typically also requiring an optical modem (e.g., MBRYONICS StarCom-100G modem) and optical amplifie

Why Galway, Ireland?

Highly Skilled Workforce

Galway has two colleges which helps to give access to a young, highly educated and highly skilled workforce.

Connectivity

Galway is easily accessible from all over Ireland. There is a direct motorway to Dublin and Shannon Airport is only an hour away which is really beneficial for logistics and personnel travelling to us. It’s also on the edge of Europe so travel to and from Europe, America and the Middle East is seamless.

Supports

There are so many commercial supports and services available to businesses in Galway from the Local Enterprise Board and the Galway Chamber of Commerce to the numerous business networking and support groups.

Networks

There are many business networking and support groups across Galway city and county. There is great camaraderie between the members of these groups and you are never short of someone to turn to if you need help or advice. Businesses really look out for each other in Galway and there is a great community spirit here that we are delighted to be a part of.
