About

SatEnlight develops a new generation of optical communication systems that multiply communication capacity using Orbital Angular Momentum (OAM), enabling faster, scalable, resilient, and more secure communication systems. The company exploits OAM to introduce a new spatial dimension to optical communication, allowing multiple independent data streams to coexist within a single optical beam. SatEnlight has demonstrated links exceeding 1 Gbps over a 3.5 km urban outdoor link. The technology targets satellite downlinks, inter-satellite communications, airborne and UAV optical links, secure defense communications, and urban optical backhaul. SatEnlight is incubated by ESA BIC Padua, has secured funding, holds two international patents with a third pending, and has been selected for the SpaceFounders Batch #7 program.
