Gilat Satellite Networks Ltd. (Nasdaq: GILT, TASE: GILT) has announced securing orders exceeding $3 million from leading service providers for its Gateway Solid State Power Amplifiers (SSPAs). These systems are designed to support Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite constellations and are scheduled for delivery over the next 12 months.

LEO satellite constellations are becoming an integral part of modern global communication systems. These networks consist of satellites that operate in low Earth orbits, offering advantages such as reduced latency and increased connectivity for remote and underserved regions. As the demand for reliable and efficient satellite communication grows, solutions like Gilat's SSPAs are critical in meeting these technological needs.

The SSPAs developed by Gilat are high-performance components recognized for their efficiency, reliability, and exceptional functionality. Their innovative design addresses the stringent requirements of LEO satellite systems, where factors such as compact size, lightweight construction, and energy efficiency are crucial. These features enable service providers to deliver seamless global connectivity while maintaining cost-effectiveness and operational efficiency.

"These orders highlight Gilat's leadership in satellite communication innovation, enabling service providers to expand their capabilities and meet the growing demand for global connectivity," said Edgar Khachatryan, Gilat Wavestream President and General Manager at Gilat. "With increasing adoption of LEO constellations, Gilat's SSPAs are well-positioned to play a critical role in powering the next generation of satellite networks."

The adoption of LEO constellations represents a transformative shift in the satellite communication industry. Unlike traditional geostationary satellites, LEO satellites orbit closer to the Earth, allowing for faster data transmission and enhanced performance. These systems are particularly valuable for applications such as broadband internet, disaster recovery, and support for Internet of Things (IoT) devices.

Gilat's continued focus on innovation and quality ensures that its products remain at the forefront of this evolving industry. The company's SSPAs are not only designed to meet current demands but also to adapt to the emerging requirements of next-generation satellite networks, solidifying Gilat's reputation as a trusted partner for service providers worldwide.
