Latest satellite subsystem contract
Rakon Limited (NZX:RAK), a leader in the global timing and frequency control industry, today
announced its latest contract to supply space subsystems for a new commercial Low Earth Orbit
(LEO) satellite constellation.
This is the second time Rakon has been selected to supply its industry-leading Master Reference
Oscillator (MRO) subsystems for a new LEO satellite constellation. The contract win reinforces
Rakon’s position as a top subsystem supplier in the global space industry.
Rakon CEO, Sinan Altug, says Rakon is pleased to report further growth of its space subsystems
business.
“This latest contract win is further validation that Rakon’s growth strategy for the rapidly expanding
space ecosystem is delivering results and that our confidence for securing future high level contracts
in this sector is well placed,” says Altug.
Rakon’s MRO subsystems provide highly accurate and stable frequency references, and precision
timing that enable satellite communications and synchronisation. The company’s ultra-stable
oscillator technology also delivers industry-leading reliability and timing holdover (ability to maintain
uninterrupted frequency stability and time, during periods when a GPS signal may be unavailable).
A top-3 global supplier for its space subsystems, Rakon’s growing range of space products has
increased its addressable market within the global space industry to $250m. The company believes it
will increase its share of its serviceable addressable market in the next 5 years, largely driven by
demand for subsystem products.
Rakon has recently released several new products for its space product range, including new GNSS
(Global Navigation Satellite System) receivers, MROs, and ultra-stable oscillators.
Rakon is also preparing to launch a new, first-of-its-kind semiconductor chip designed for its space
oscillator products and will provide an update soon.
