Xtend 5G
Independent Connectivity Platform
5G Connectivity Everywhere
Independent – Secure – European: Forsway Xtend 5G is designed to furnish multi-network land and satellite services for critical public infrastructure in an open or closed network.
Forsway’s next-generation 5G Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) platform., Xtend 5G uses a transparent GEO satellite architecture combined with terrestrial 5G networks to provide secure, resilient, and always-on broadband — even where traditional infrastructure is unavailable.
Built for operators, government agencies, defence, and critical infrastructure.
Independent Platform - Secure - European
Designed to furnish multi-network land and satellite services for critical public infrastructure:
Xtend 5G is being developed to deliver true 5G connectivity anywhere on Earth using GEO satellite technology. In collaboration with the European Space Agency, Forsway is building a complete end-to-end 5G Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) system that brings reliable, high-speed broadband to the places traditional networks cannot reach or require a secure, closed network:
- Defence, critical infrastructure, government agencies, remote communities, vessels at sea, and enterprises requiring resilient backup connectivity.
Focus on Compatibility - Built to Solve Connectivity Challenges
Most existing satellite solutions are proprietary, expensive, and incompatible with standard 5G services. Our core competence is combining available land and satellite communication networks to ensure effective, uninterrupted, secure IP/broadband communication, with cost-efficient, robust and secure solutions.
Features:
- Any standard 5G NTN device to connect via satellite
- Seamless service continuity as users move between terrestrial and satellite coverage
- Carrier-grade reliability with 99.9% service availability
- Global regulatory compliance supporting deployment across multiple jurisdictions
- Scalable capacity growing with demand through additional satellite resources
- Future-proof architecture ready for LEO satellite expansion and 3GPP evolution
A standards-compliant platform – Xtend 5G is developed in collaboration with the European Space Agency ARTES program bringing next-generation connectivity to everyone, everywhere.
- Xtend 5G is a standards-compliant 5G NTN system built on 3GPP Release 18 specifications.
- Our transparent GEO satellite architecture places the intelligence on the ground – enabling cost-effective deployment, easy upgrades, and seamless integration with existing 5G ecosystems.
Xtend 5G is a highly customizable and fully secure solution providing a robust backup or prime connection for critical infrastructure installations and can be employed in an open or closed network format:
- Cost-effective deployment using existing satellite capacity
- Easy upgrades without touching space-based assets
- Seamless integration with terrestrial networks with automatic handover, bandwidth bonding, and application routing – always using the best available path.
- Future scalability to LEO constellations
