Amphinicy Technologies

CORE BUSINESS

Amphinicy Technologies (AT) is a valued provider of complex, tailor-made software solutions and all-round software support for the satellite industry. AT has been on the market for 20 years, with its Luxembourg office established in 2002. Amphinicy Luxembourg has high expertise in the fields

of SatCom and Earth Observation. It provides enterprise solutions for big commercial and governmental projects, both in civilian and defense sectors.

  • The 5 pillars we’re focusing at the moment are:
  • Enabling SatCom in 5G/6G (by virtualization)
  • Optical communication (M&C of Optical Ground Segment)
  • Secure SatCom (including dual use)
  • IV&V (Independent Validation and Verification)
  • Software Engineering Services for customers in Space domain

PRODUCTS & SERVICES

Products:
  • ViSAGE: an ad-hoc SatCom-as-a Service solution that leverages available GSaaS infrastructure for signal reception and digitization, its own cloud-native software- based modem, and its 3GPP-based service management and orchestration platform. ViSAGE enables itegration of SatCom solutions into 5G ecosystem.
  • Monica: a modern monitoring and control built on the latest industry standards. It comes in two versions– as M&C solution for local ground station (e.g. broadcasting teleport), or as ultra-scalable NMS solution for monitoring huge networks (e.g. VSAT networks, IoT, etc.)
  • Blink: an innovative software solution for ultra-fast EO telemetry acquisition and processing, using today’s top-of-the-line commercial CPUs and GPUs and radically reduces costs, improves flexibility and maintenance.
services:

Tailor-made software engineering and consulting services and all-round software support for the customers in the Space industry.
