De-CIX, a leading internet exchange operator, is pioneering its Space IX initiative to establish interconnections between low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites and terrestrial networks. This ambitious project aims to optimize satellite connectivity using advanced laser communication technologies while addressing the challenges of atmospheric interference.

By integrating space-based infrastructure with digital ecosystems on Earth, De-CIX envisions a future where orbital networks seamlessly support services like global broadband and AI. The initiative also includes collaborations with the European Space Agency to lay the groundwork for the first internet exchange in space.
