ETL Systems, The Hereford-based provider of RF distribution solutions, has acquired Hampshire-based SpacePath Communications, a move that enhances ETL’s position in the global satellite communications market.
This collaboration will not only enrich the ETL team, but the significant overlap in client bases and mutual commitment to innovation will also ensure a seamless integration.
“By acquiring SpacePath Communications, we are thrilled to enhance our offerings and provide their customers with innovative solutions and new functionalities,” said Kevin Dunne, CEO at ETL Systems. “We are dedicated to maintaining the high standards of service that both our organisations value.”
Newton Burnet, co-founder and Chief Technical Officer of SpacePath, said: “This acquisition represents a major milestone for SpacePath and ETL. It provides us with the additional resources and infrastructure necessary to access new high-value mm-wave transmitter markets, while still providing existing product lines and maintaining our core values of technical innovation, quality products and customer support.”
Colin Bolton, co-founder and Director of Business Development of SpacePath, added, “We are excited to join forces with ETL Systems, a company that shares our commitment to innovation and customer service. This acquisition presents a tremendous opportunity for our team and clients alike, as we combine our strengths to deliver even greater value in the satellite communications market.”
The integration of SpacePath’s HPA product line into ETL's portfolio positions the company to better meet the evolving needs of its customers. Furthermore, SpacePath’s clients will continue to receive dedicated support from ETL Systems as both teams work closely to ensure a smooth transition.
“This merger not only fortifies our leading position in the UK but also creates new opportunities for career progression for both SpacePath and ETL employees, expanding the organisation for personal development,” added Kevin.
Together, ETL Systems and SpacePath Communications bring decades of expertise in ground segment technology, resulting in a robust portfolio of products and services that will benefit existing and future clients.
