Always-on mobile broadband communications
Kymeta ConnectTM offers hybrid satellite-cellular connectivity services with an all-inclusive hardware connectivity and services monthly subscription starting at $999, the lowest in the industry. The solution requires no upfront fees and makes broadband connectivity as easy to purchase as a wireless connectivity plan.
The Kymeta u8TM is built specifically for mobility and designed for the needs of the most demanding customers and beyond. The u8 is the world’s first lightweight, low-profile, flat panel, cost-effective and self-configurable solution that uses metamaterials and holographic beamforming technology. The industry has desired this type of solution for years, enabling users to seamlessly access mobile satellite and terrestrial services while on the move.
Kymeta is the first company to make metamaterial technology commercially viable. Users are turning to higher radio frequencies to meet increasing demands for mobile wireless data – and the best way to deliver that service is through traditional geostationary satellites and new constellations of non-geostationary satellites. Metamaterials enables Kymeta to build a more efficient antenna that delivers the dynamic electronically-steered performance of a phased array without the need for expensive and power-hungry phase shifters, related amplifiers and other components.
When lives and property are on the line, reliable connectivity isn’t optional. Kymeta closes the gaps with satellite and cellular mobile broadband communications to keep you connected and solutions that are low maintenance, low profile, easy to use, and durable.
Kymeta serves global government customers at the federal, state, and local levels, always remaining cognizant that human lives depend on the performance and reliability of our products. Our technology has been validated in some of the world’s most challenging communications environments.
Kymeta makes seamless connectivity a reality for public safety. Kymeta’s hybrid satellite and cellular approach ensures always-ready, always-on, high-throughput mobile connectivity from any location, enabling real-time voice, video, and situational awareness, even when terrestrial networks are compromised.
When a continuous connection on the move is critical, people depend on Kymeta. Kymeta solutions mount easily on vehicles and vessels to provide seamless hybrid satellite and cellular connectivity, regardless of location.
Kymeta’s engineering team has made dramatic technological advancements with the u8, including a doubling of the antenna’s gain, full Ku-band coverage, and realizing near-theoretical scan loss performance. All while reducing cost compared to Kymeta’s first-generation product.
Unlike phased array, Kymeta combines transmit and receive in a single aperture and a smaller, lighter overall footprint than leading phased array antennas, which improves product market fit for many mobile applications.
While peak gain is typically better for a phased array of equal size, Kymeta’s performance advantage increases as the antenna scans, which makes Kymeta a better solution for highly mobile, extreme scan use cases.
Kymeta has more scalable manufacturing and calibration processes, which lowers CapEx costs and makes accessing connectivity more affordable.
Kymeta’s technology consumes only 165W for a full terminal with a 20W BUC and an integrated modem, where phased array antennas range between 144W and 1KW. Kymeta antennas can leverage existing power systems on mobile platforms.
