Kepler Communications closes $92M Series C to grow real-time satellite data relay network

Toronto-based startup Kepler Communications closed another tranche of capital to continue building out its on-orbit data network.
The new funding, which comes to $92 million, will be used to launch a constellation of optical communications satellites next year. Those satellites will join Kepler’s existing network of 19 radio-frequency satellites operating in sun-synchronous orbits (SSO). Two more satellites are scheduled to join that constellation with the launch of SpaceX’s Transporter-7 mission next week.
According to Kepler’s website, the new optical relay network will deliver data at 2.5 G
