More Product Information

The PPS®X00 plasma thruster (Hall effect) takes benefit of Safran’s long experience with electric propulsion to propose a very efficient product. PPS®X00 was designed to address the specific requirements inherent in the “New Space” market environment. With a lifespan exceeding 5,000 hours and very high specific impulse, the PPS®X00 is an extremely versatile thruster, making it ideal for all types of applications in its core market: low Earth orbit (LEO).

N-XONOS is a X-band transmitter dedicated to small satellites and designed to answer to an increasing demand of high data rate transmission. It is a new generation of transmitters on an innovative design.

ARES (formerly IRIS) from Safran Defense & Space, Inc. (formerly Safran Data Systems, Inc.) represents the next-gen in transportable antenna systems. Packed in portable cases for easy handling, ARES can be shipped using standard methods and be fully operational in under an hour in the field, standing by to support satellites. Utilizing a reliable pedestal design and a dual-band concentric feed, ARES antenna ensures pinpoint accuracy and top-notch antenna performance. Crafted from standard (LRU) parts, it’s a breeze to maintain and service on-site, guaranteeing maximum uptime for all satellite missions. Combined with the SATCORE combo box (Command/Control modem & high-rate receiver) and the TM MAESTRO Monitoring & Control software, ARES is the all-in-one portable satellite tracking system.

WeTrack® stands as a one-of-a-kind service developed, possessed, and operated by Safran Defense & Space, Inc. (formerly Safran Data Systems, Inc.). Leverage its autonomous network of radio frequency (RF) sensors to attain precise orbital positions with high data update rates, enhancing your decision-making capabilities across all orbit scenarios, thanks to our global coverage. With automated sensors for detection and tracking, stay well-informed 24 hour, every day of the year.
Our patented technology, designed for passive satellite emissions reception, provides comprehensive coverage of all orbits, boasting multiple networks deployed in the United States, Europe, and Asia. WeTrack® grants real-time access to information through a secure web portal.

eZ Processing is the solution for telemetry data processing, analysis and display (real time or playback). It allows the capture of the data either from a PCM signal or directly through data sent on Ethernet (IRIG 106 Chapter 10) by the receiver.
It performs the frame synchronization, Engineering Unit conversion, data display and storage, as well as data subset dissemination to dedicated analysis tools. It can accommodate multiple display stations, each having selectable parameters and displays. When used in a system with Safran Defense & Space, Inc. (formerly Safran Data Systems, Inc.) data acquisition units like the XMA or MDR, the software parameter database is automatically updated by eZ configuration software, reducing the set-up time and preventing all errors.
