LOS ANGELES, Sept. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- AnySignal, a leading provider of software-defined radios, waveforms, and space-based networking, announced a partnership with Apex, The Spacecraft Platform Company, to offer AnySignal communications solutions as a new option on Apex's productized, mass-manufactured spacecraft buses. By pairing AnySignal's AnyLink network and hybrid ground segment with Apex's production buses, customers will have the option to design their mission as a single architecture with one platform provider from initial mission concepting through on-orbit operations.
The agreement expands the companies' existing collaboration, building on the successful on-orbit performance of AnySignal's AnyLink networking software aboard Apex spacecraft.
"Apex has been an important partner as we demonstrate the operability and value of AnyLink on orbit, and this agreement is a natural next step as we continue to expand our work together," said John Malsbury, Founder and CEO of AnySignal. "Pairing Apex's high-rate production with AnySignal's RF stack simplifies and accelerates customer missions, creating one integrated path from mission design to orbit."
"Apex builds the spacecraft platforms so our partners can focus on what makes their mission unique," said Ian Cinnamon, Co-Founder and CEO of Apex. "AnySignal's deep RF and networking expertise provides optional telemetry, tracking, and command (TT&C) capabilities that further elevate Apex's best-in-class platforms. We're proud to have proven the AnyLink technology on our spacecraft, and we're excited to build what comes next."
Rather than locking a mission to a single antenna or network, AnyLink aggregates multiple ground station networks, including AnySignal's own hybrid ground station partner network, into one unified platform. Data flows through whichever path is optimal at a given moment, giving customers a single, continuous connection to their spacecraft instead of a patchwork of providers, contact schedules, and manual handoffs.
The result is resilient, on-demand access to the ground, with the underlying networks abstracted away. These features provide significant flexibility and allow Apex's customers to configure their bus to the exact specifications that meet their unique mission requirements.
"The deepening of our strategic partnership will benefit both Apex and AnySignal's customers by further advancing AnySignal's already proven networking services and adding AnyLink as an option on Apex's buses," said Max Benassi, Co-Founder and CTO of Apex. "We're excited about this next chapter in our partnership and the capabilities it will ultimately unlock for Apex's customers."
