Cubic3 and Kymeta team up on hybrid network platform

9 March 2020

Military, first responders and commercial customers across numerous land-based mobile verticals can now operate with a vital ‘always-on’ communications connectivity solution, switching from satellite to cellular connectivity seamlessly. Cubic Telecom, the global connectivity technology provider, has partnered with Kymeta, the communications company making mobile global.

The ground-breaking network platform enables blended LTE and satellite-based connectivity services.

Cubic’s LTE and 5G networks, partnered with Kymeta’s satellite connectivity solution, allows true mobility with complete coverage of the Earth. By combining these communication networks, we can provide enhanced products and services at a sustainable economy of scale, while supporting essential communications.

Cubic and Kymeta’s technology collaboration brings secure, hyper-efficient, and highly-optimized connectivity to industries such as the military, emergency response, transportation, recreational and overland adventure vehicles. This radical satellite-cellular hybrid package combines LTE and satellite connectivity using Kymeta’s flat panel electronically steered antenna technology.

Buses, vehicle fleets, maritime vessels, ferries, trucks, and trains can leverage the optimal aspects of both satellite and cellular network technologies to provide highly reliable connections. The network connectivity occurs seamlessly to ensure that users remain connected anywhere in the world, even at sea, in the midst of a mountain rescue, or in the middle of a desert.
