// PAYLOAD — Optical crosslink terminal
OptiLink
IN DEVLight-speed mesh between satellites.
An optical / laser crosslink terminal for inter-satellite mesh and high-rate downlink.
// OVERVIEW
OptiLink weaves the constellation together: an optical crosslink terminal that meshes satellites at up to ~25 Gbps and moves data across the network to a satellite over a ground station.
Fast acquisition and tight pointing let a constellation route around weather and geography, delivering data when and where the ground is ready.
