Media Lario Telescopes selected for Tesat’s SCOT80 Laser Communication Terminals

Media Lario has been awarded a contract by TESAT-Spacecom for the supply of high specification telescopes for the SCOT80 Laser Communication Terminals for the Telesat Lightspeed™ satellite network.

The SCOT80 is the flagship laser communication terminal from Tesat and will include telescopes from Media Lario based on our unique and patented Repli-formed Optics™ process. The SCOT80 terminal has been selected for Telesat Lightspeed, a highly innovative global network developed by Telesat of Canada, initially comprised of 198 state-of-the-art Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites, seamlessly interconnected by about 800 terminals to create a resilient mesh network in space, much like an optical fibre network on ground. Media Lario’s telescopes are integrated into the terminal to transmit and receive focused laser beams carrying high-speed data over several thousand kilometres in space
