About
Dcubed’s Body-Mounted Solar Array provides pre-integrated solar panels for the side faces of CubeSat and smallsat structures. The panels are supplied as complete assemblies with cells, substrate, connectors, and mounting provisions ready to bolt directly onto the spacecraft structure.
Body-mounted panels are the simplest power generation solution for smaller CubeSats (1U–6U) or as supplemental power on larger platforms. No deployment mechanism is needed, reducing system complexity and increasing reliability.
The panels use triple-junction GaAs solar cells with ≥28% BOL efficiency, with radiation-shielded coverglass for 3–5 year LEO missions. Dcubed supplies body-mounted panels in standard CubeSat face sizes and can accommodate custom dimensions for smallsat platforms.
