About
EXObox manages the deployment sequencing of large satellite clusters. A single EXObox can control a group of up to 50 satellites. The device is galvanically isolated from the launch vehicle with its own internal power supply, allowing it to function fully autonomously once activated.
EXObox supports a wide range of deploy signal parameters and can relay deployment hardware telemetry back to the launch vehicle (transparent transceiver mode). All CPU and power supply systems are redundant for maximum reliability. Multiple EXOboxes can be combined to scale to any mission size.
Flight heritage: first launched in 2017. 7 missions, 132 smallsats deployed. Compatible with any launch vehicle. Made in Germany.
