Gilat Satellite Networks Ltd. announced that it has secured an order exceeding $10 million from a leading ground‑gateway antenna provider to supply its Powerstream Ka‑band solid‑state power amplifiers for a large‑scale low‑earth‑orbit (LEO) ground‑gateway program.
The order will support the continued rollout of ground infrastructure for the LEO constellation, with deliveries scheduled over the next 12 months. The Powerstream units are engineered to deliver reliable, high‑power Ka‑band amplification required for continuous and cost‑effective LEO, medium‑earth‑orbit (MEO) and geostationary (GEO) gateway operations.
This contract adds a new revenue stream for Gilat’s Wavestream division and reinforces the company’s position in the multi‑orbit connectivity market, aligning with its strategic shift toward software‑defined platforms and multi‑orbit solutions. With more than 2,000 Ka‑band units already delivered worldwide, the order demonstrates Gilat’s proven capability to meet the demanding performance and scale requirements of LEO ground‑segment deployments.
The order’s value and timing provide near‑term revenue visibility that supports Gilat’s recently raised full‑year 2025 guidance. Management expects the contract to help the company meet or exceed its revenue and margin targets, while the mix of LEO, MEO and GEO work signals a diversified portfolio that mitigates orbit‑specific headwinds.
Investors reacted positively to the announcement, reflecting confidence in Gilat’s expanding role in the high‑growth LEO market and its broader multi‑orbit strategy.
Edgar Khachatryan, President of Gilat Wavestream, said, "Our Powerstream solutions are purpose‑built for the scale and performance demands of LEO, MEO & GEO ground gateway installations, and with more than 2,000 Ka‑band units delivered worldwide, we continue to play a leading role in enabling reliable, high‑capacity gateway infrastructure."
