Sateliot’s Operational Framework

Sateliot, based in Barcelona and San Diego, operates within the 3GPP Standard framework, set by companies such as Apple, Sony, and Samsung, among others. This allows Sateliot to offer satellite-based connectivity for current narrowband IoT (NB-IoT) devices at costs similar to terrestrial networks, expanding IoT access to previously unreachable regions, the company said.

Satellite Deployments

Under this agreement, Sateliot will deploy four additional satellites - Sateliot_1, Sateliot_2, Sateliot_3, and Sateliot_4 - using Exolaunch's services. These 6U satellites are scheduled for launch on the SpaceX Transporter-11 Rideshare mission in mid-2024. Exolaunch will provide its EXOpod Nova satellite separation system for deployment.

"Partnering with Exolaunch marks a significant milestone for Sateliot as we continue our mission to revolutionise 5G IoT connectivity from space," remarked Jaume Sanpera, chief executive officer at Sateliot.

"We are delighted to welcome Sateliot as our newest customer and partner," said Pablo Lobo, mission manager at Exolaunch.
