SatFrame 445's Chassis
A standard 19-inch server rack, with available space for 5U of hardware, is secured in the heart of the SatFrame satellite. While the initial SatFrame™ mission will support an 18-inch deep server system, the agnostic design is capable of expanding to fit full-size 36-inch deep hardware.
Power System and Solar Panels
Energy is provided by a large solar array. To continue powering the satellite when it is in the shadow of the Earth, the battery pack is used to keep the system operating at peak efficiency.
Thermal Control System
OrbitsEdge's SatFrame™ proprietary system protects hardware and software designed on from the harsh environment of space. It features a unique cooling system that incorporates the chassis and assistive radiators, providing the maximum area for cooling and improved radiation protection.
