Kratos Defense & Security Solutions released the first of its new OpenEdge products,an open standards-based and software-enabled satellite terminals. The company said, "Part of Kratos’ OpenSpace Platform, OpenEdge is the first generally available family of satellite network edge devices employing a modern, software-defined approach for a range of communications, observation, sensing and TT&C uses. OpenEdge is the next step in Kratos’ ongoing effort to support the mainstreaming of satellite services by enabling satellite ground systems to operate seamlessly with today’s wireless and terrestrial networks. Until OpenEdge, satellite terminals- the devices that end users employ at the far edge of a satellite ground network to transmit and receive data- have been purpose-built hardware devices that seriously restrict functionality and flexibility at the network’s edge. OpenEdge disrupts these limitations by: employing virtualized software modems that can run on general purpose, off-the-shelf compute, and adding far more power and versatility by enabling additional apps to run at the network’s edge, fully orchestrated across service delivery."
