Russia’s private space company Sputnix (part of the Sputnix Group) has developed and successfully tested software increasing the data transfer rate from nanosatellites tenfold, the company’s press service told TASS. "Sputnix has successfully tested a new version of the software for its own X-band transmitter, the SXC-XTX-01. The update has increased the data transmission rate of nanosatellites carrying out scientific, educational, and AIS missions up to 100 Mbps. This small transmitter type is basically used for small spacecraft of 3U and 6U CubeSat form factors. The Zorky-2M constellation of Earth remote sensing satellites with data transfer rates of up to 1 Gbps and the capacity to transmit up to 100 GB of data per day has been successfully operating in orbit since 2023.
