Real-world military and satellite communication requires an extensive, secure, robust, and fast communication network. Designing optical fiber communication solutions for these situations can be challenging, as they involve an entirely different set of parameters compared to commercial applications. Above all, these networks must be tested repeatedly for a wide range of conditions before being deployed.
Optiwave offers a cost-effective and powerful solution for military and satellite communication requirements, including:

Can photonics be used for military applications?
Photonics is a part of optical fiber communications that deals with creating and manipulating light. This field can, of course, be applied to military situations in a variety of ways. High-speed fiber optics can relay crucial and confidential communications across large distances. Similarly, new technologies like Li-Fi now allow communication specialists to send important information over moderate distances when other forms of photonic communication aren’t available.
How do fiber optics help with satcom?
Satellite communication, or satcom, involves wirelessly transmitting information from Earth to satellites in orbit – or vice versa. Researchers and scientists working with satcom still depend on fiber optic communication to transmit the information they receive from satellites to other nodes on the network.
