One photonic platform, three ways to deploy it.

Every Vulcan product is built on the same OPA-based photonic integrated chip, engineered for a specific deployment, from fixed infrastructure to airborne platforms to OEM integration.

Vulcan Core

Vulcan Core

Built to last. Built to link.

A low-SWaP photonic module for permanent, point-to-point optical wireless links. Designed for rapid installation on fixed infrastructure, poles, rooftops, masts, it delivers 1–2 Gbps of secure throughput at distances up to 2 km with zero maintenance. No alignment motors. No moving parts. Mount it. Aim it. Link it.

Range
1–2 km
Throughput
1–2 Gbps
Moving parts
None
RF emissions
None

Markets: Urban backhaul · Critical infrastructure · Emergency comms · Campus & industrial

Vulcan Coarse

Optical comms for platforms in motion.

Extends the Vulcan platform to mobile and airborne applications. A compact gimbal handles coarse pointing as the platform maneuvers; the integrated OPA chip delivers fine beam steering electronically, achieving a wide field of regard without the payload cost of a full mechanical system. Designed from the ground up for the SWaP constraints of tactical UAVs and small airborne platforms.

Throughput
1–2 Gbps
Pointing
Gimbal + OPA
Form factor
Low-SWaP
Platform
UAV / airborne

Markets: Tactical UAVs · ISR platforms · Airborne relay · Constrained-payload aircraft

Vulcan Coarse
Vulcan OEM photonic module

Vulcan OEM

The photonic core. Your system.

The photonic integrated module and electronic control interface as a standalone component. Replace legacy mechanical beam-steering, mirrors, motorized gimbals, rotating stages, or add a high-throughput optical channel alongside an existing RF link for redundancy and high availability.

Replace moving parts
Drop in our solid-state module where a mechanical mirror or gimbal sits. Same performance. Zero moving parts. Lower SWaP.
Hybrid RF + optical
Add optical capacity alongside an existing RF link, more availability, more throughput, a jam-proof secondary channel.
