Starlink: Satellite Internet Hardware Transport Cases

Challenge

Starlink (SpaceX) operates the world's largest satellite internet constellation with 5,000+ satellites serving 100+ countries and 3M+ customers. They need cases for user terminal hardware, ground station equipment, and diagnostic tools transported to customer sites, ground stations, and global installations. Cases must: (1) meet IATA + IP65 + outdoor deployment standards, (2) survive global outdoor deployment, (3) protect $500+ user terminal equipment, (4) integrate with Starlink supply chain, (5) be reusable 300+ cycles.

Solution

KeXinMaterials provided satellite-grade cases with: (1) IATA + IP65 + IP67 + outdoor UV-resistant compliance, (2) PP copolymer with weatherproof and high-impact, (3) custom foam for user terminals, ground station equipment, diagnostic tools, (4) serialized QR + Starlink supply chain, (5) 300+ cycle rating. Custom foam for Starlink dish user terminal, WiFi router, ethernet adapter, ground station phased array equipment.

Result

5,000 cases deployed across 100+ countries. 18 months zero user terminal damage. 100% IATA compliance. Starlink standardized KeXinMaterials as a qualified satellite case vendor.

"Starlink serves 3M+ customers in 100+ countries with strict IATA, IP65, and outdoor deployment standards. KeXinMaterials cases have proven weatherproof and high-impact performance across our global user terminal and ground station operations. The 300+ cycle reusability supports our ESG goals. They're our standard satellite case. — Starlink Global Hardware Operations Director"
