SGS, Skylo team for satellite network certification testing
SGS is to provide a certification programme for end modules and devices used for the Skylo Technologies satellite network.
Skylo will use the SGS global network and expertise in compliance to accelerate the device certification process for non-terrestrial networks. Facilities in San Diego and Taipei will work in concert to ensure products’ compliance with Skylo’s certification tests. Skylo has certified the Altair chipset from Sony Semiconductor Israel for its satellite network.
“We are excited to partner with Skylo, a leader in direct-to-device Non-Terrestrial Network services, to be their first authorized test lab,” said Charles Ly Wa Hoi, Head of Connectivity & Products and Health & Nutrition, SGS. “This collaboration offers a one-stop shop for Skylo’s certification program and ensures that cellular chipsets, modems, modules, and devices seamlessly integrate with their network.”
“Our collaboration with SGS ensures devices are compatible, ready and able to seamlessly use our network, ensuring efficient use of spectrum and reduced friction for users everywhere,” said Dr. Andrew Nuttall, Chief Technology Officer and Co-Founder of Skylo Technologies. “SGS’s unparalleled global reach and rigorous testing protocols will help us ensure that our products meet the robust safety and quality standards our customers demand, wherever they are on the planet.”
As industries increasingly demand ubiquitous connectivity for critical operations via satellite networks, reliable and certified devices are key. The Skylo satellite communication network is designed to provide consistent and dependable connectivity, particularly in remote and underserved areas, without using carrier spectrum.
Details of the certification are at Skylo Certified Devices.
