Ultraband designs its phased array systems in house, from the GaN and GaAs front-end ICs and beamforming chain to the 16 x 16 antenna-in-module (AiM) tiles and the complete terminal. All three systems operate in Ku-band, transmitting at 12.75 to 14.5 GHz and receiving at 10.7 to 12.75 GHz.
Electronically steered arrays track fast-moving LEO satellites with no moving parts, so they are slimmer, faster and lower-maintenance than a motorised parabolic dish. Ultraband showcased its 16 x 16 Ku-band phased array module at Satellite 2026 in the Taiwan Space Pavilion.
For the MMICs inside these systems, see the Ultraband mmWave MMIC range.

Azhdarchidae is the Ku-band electronically steered terminal for LEO SATCOM, with EIRP above 66 dBm, G/T of 6 dB/K and +/-45 degree beam scan.
Azhdarchidae is a 56 x 56 cm, 16 kg flat-panel LEO terminal. Quetzalcoatlus is fully modular, built from 16 x 16 AiM tiles, and scales from residential units to GEO ground stations with EIRP above 83 dBm and G/T of 9 dB/K.
AzhdaeQ extends UAV links from a few kilometres (typical of 2.4 / 5.8 GHz) to tens of kilometres using Ku-band beam steering, enabling BVLOS flight. It can also link to Azhdarchidae via LEO satellites.
