Electronics manufacturer Murata to explore Xona satellite timing service for telecom, data centers

spacenews.com·Jun 3, 2026

Murata Manufacturing has partnered with Xona Space Systems to explore the use of Xona's satellite-based positioning and timing service, Pulsar, for telecommunications and data centers, as an alternative to GPS. This collaboration aims to enhance timing synchronization in industries that require precise signals, especially in environments where GPS signals may be weak or disrupted.

Xona Space Systems' development of the Pulsar satellite-based positioning and timing service presents a significant opportunity for industries requiring precise timing synchronization, such as telecommunications and data centers. This service, which operates in low Earth orbit, promises stronger, more reliable signals than traditional GPS, particularly in urban environments prone to signal degradation. With Murata Manufacturing exploring the integration of Pulsar into its products and existing investment ties, this could signal a strategic area for investment or partnership in the evolving space tech ecosystem.
