In a significant move for satellite communications in Europe, Filtronic is stepping up to play a pivotal role in the European Space Agency (ESA) and Viasat's ambitious Direct-to-Device (D2D) project. Read more here.

The British company is contributing cutting-edge feeder link technology designed for seamless connectivity between Earth and the low Earth orbit (LEO) constellations. This collaboration is a part of ESA’s ARTES 4.0 programme, which aims to foster innovation within the satellite communications sector. The goal? To usher in an era of 5G non-terrestrial services delivered directly to users.

This strategic partnership not only positions Filtronic at the forefront of RF technology innovation, but it also strengthens Europe’s presence in the global telecommunication sphere. As technological boundaries are pushed, Filtronic's RF solutions are set to ensure robust, high-capacity satellite communications. This aligns perfectly with the growing global demand for ubiquitous and reliable connectivity, potentially changing how we all stay connected.
