GET CONNECTED
Billions of new devices are coming online, changing the way we work and live. They are also transforming how we use wireless and what we expect from our networks. Rivada’s technology is a key enabler of this connected future.
We are animated by the conviction that it should be as easy to purchase connectivity as it is to buy cloud storage or compute power. Connectivity-as-a-Service is the future.
Enter the Outernet: Rivada’s gateway-less LEO network, with intersatellite lasers, pole-to-pole coverage and fiber-grade latency. No public internet, no terrestrial cables, no third-party risk. Built for the most demanding enterprises and government customers.
We are partnering with terrestrial operators to unlock idle wholesale capacity, turning underutilized spectrum into dynamic markets that boost ROI and network efficiency.
Artificial intelligence and autonmous systems are driving growth in wireless-data demand. Rivada’s orbital backbone delivers reliable, flexible capacity exactly where you need it, including the places terrestrial networks can’t reach. Global networks are changing fast. Rivada’s orbital architecture keeps you ahead.

Germany is going to the Moon. Aboard #ArtemisII:
TACHELES – a German CubeSat from Berlin testing lunar rover tech in deep space
The European Service Module – Orion's engine, built in Bremen, Germany.
Digital transformation has pushed enterprise and government operations into the cloud, across borders, and into latency-sensitive domains, making them vulnerable to ever-increasing cyberattacks. Rivada's #Outernet introduces a new class of infrastructure which provides private
Godspeed, Artemis 2. Per Audacia Ad Astra!
The Outernet is not an extension of the internet.
It is a physically and logically separate plane of connectivity — purpose-built for mission continuity and data integrity.
Infrastructure that doesn’t adapt the internet for your needs. It replaces it.
WE CAN’T MAKE ANY MORE WIRELESS SPECTRUM BUT WE CAN USE IT BETTER. MUCH BETTER.
Rivada Networks is taking another big step toward transforming wireless connectivity.
Our approach reshapes how we view network capacity — turning it from a static commodity into a dynamic, globally accessible resource. Rivada’s Open Access Marketplace (ROAM) is designed to enhance efficiency, affordability, and transparency in connectivity markets — to ultimately drive innovation and further advancements in wireless.
We worked with Igor Mikhalev and the EY Parthenon team to help bring this vision to life. Check out the case study here.
The Outernet:
A New Chapter
in Wireless Communications
The Rivada Outernet gives customers access to a secure orbital network with pole-to-pole reach, offering end-to-end latencies similar or better than terrestrial fiber. The Rivada Outernet will be a self-contained optical backbone in space, using lasers to connect satellites to deliver an ultra-secure and highly reliable global data network for the telecom, enterprise, maritime, energy and government services markets.
The Outernet’s unique architecture, high speed and low latency will also make it possible to bring connectivity to remote regions that no current infrastructure can reach.

OPEN ACCESS MARKET
Rivada’s Open Access Market brings fairness, transparency and ease of access to anyone who wants to keep the world connected wirelessly.... Rivada’s technology allows connectivity to be purchased a year ahead, a month ahead or in real time, offering unprecedented flexibility. To learn more about what Open Access means for the future of wireless, please see this paper by Prof. Peter Cramton: openaccesswireless.com
DYNAMIC SPECTRUM SHARING
Dynamic Spectrum Sharing Wireless spectrum is too valuable and too scarce not to be shared.... But sharing doesn’t need to mean Wi-Fi-style anarchy. Rivada’s patented spectrum-sharing technology is called Dynamic Spectrum Arbitrage. This is true as Connecitivity-as-a-Service: Your business can buy the bandwidth that it needs, when and where it needs it. Rivada’s technology works with emerging standards to make that future a reality.
A NETWORK OF SATELLITES
Forget “constellations,” or even “megaconstellations.” Rivada Space Networks GmbH is deploying a fully interconnected high-speed, low-earth-orbit satellite network.... We call it the OuterNET™, and it will help usher in a future of truly limitless high-speed connectivity. To learn more, please click here
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
Rivada’s patent portfolio covers the full range of IP that governs dynamic wireless connectivity.... A patented telecom commodities exchange facilitates the buying and selling of bandwidth both well in advance and in a near-real-time spot market. The results of those auctions are then transmitted through the network or across multiple networks, and ultimately to user devices. And Rivada owns vital IP every step of the way.

RIVADA’S FEDERAL WORK
Rivada has been in the business of providing tactical communications solutions to the federal government since before our involvement with Hurricane Katrina in 2005. We earned our reputation on the ground in New Orleans providing an inter-operable bridge to the National Guard, local law enforcement and DHS personnel. Since then, we have been a prime contractor for DHS on the TacCom contract through our joint venture Rivada Port Graham Solutions (RPGS).
Over the past ten years, we have provided communications maintenance and support at 200+ individual sites, and we are currently providing VHF/UHF radio maintenance and support at 140+ locations for the Customs and Border Protection. Other organizations that we have supported include FEMA, FPS, Air Force Reserve Command (AFRC) and the National Guard Bureau (NGB).
RIVADA’S FEDERAL WORK
Rivada has deployed over 225 times over the past five years. These deployments include responses to natural disasters; Hurricanes Ike, Gustav, Katrina and Rita; tornados in Missouri, Kansas, and Georgia; wildfires in Texas and California; and for exercises and training events like Ardent Sentry, Vigilant Shield, and National Level Exercise 2011.
Rivada has also worked on sensitive communications projects for the Department of Justice along the Southwest Border and has an extensive track record working with small and medium sized companies across the country to support the needs of our customers. This includes an early contract in support of IWN in the Pacific Northwest for HQ DOJ. Rivada is partnered with Maniilaq to rapidly and thoroughly support the communication needs of DOJ users in the field.
