Insights
Ondas' Apeiro fiber-optic spools address critical military communication needs while expanding US-based manufacturing and defense market positioning.
Ondas' announcement represents a strategic expansion into specialized defense communications technology following its August 2025 acquisition of Apeiro Motion. The fiber-optic spools address a critical military capability gap by enabling jam-proof connectivity in RF-denied environments across distances of tens of kilometers - essential for operations in contested battlespaces.
The dual-configuration approach shows technical sophistication: the ultra-lightweight version optimized for aerial ISR platforms balances range with minimal payload impact, while the Kevlar-reinforced variant addresses the durability requirements for ground robotics operating in harsh battlefield conditions.
Most significantly, Ondas' decision to establish NDAA-compliant production at American Robotics positions the company advantageously for defense contracts. With increasing restrictions on foreign-sourced components in critical defense systems, fully US-manufactured communication solutions have substantial procurement advantages.
The announcement's reference to these systems being combat-proven suggests existing deployment in active conflict zones, validating their reliability under actual operational conditions rather than just controlled testing environments. This real-world validation significantly reduces adoption risk for military customers.
By integrating Apeiro's specialized communication technology with its existing aerial and ground robotics capabilities, Ondas is executing on its "Continuum of Autonomy" strategy, creating a more comprehensive defense technology ecosystem that should enhance its competitive positioning for integrated unmanned systems contracts.
American Robotics facility to begin Q4 2025 production of two specialized pool configurations for air and ground, supporting unmanned systems across defense and homeland security
Combination of design innovation, NDAA-compliant U.S. sourcing, and proven combat performance makes Apeiro's spools a reliable, jam-proof and field-ready fiber communications solution for defense and homeland security missions worldwide
Launch follows Ondas' acquisition of Aperio in August 2025, demonstrating Ondas' velocity in building out its Continuum of Autonomy
BOSTON, MA / ACCESS Newswire / September 18, 2025 / Ondas Holdings Inc. (Nasdaq:ONDS) ("Ondas" or the "Company"), a leading provider of autonomous aerial and ground robot intelligence and private wireless solutions through its business units Ondas Autonomous Systems (OAS) and Ondas Networks, today announced that its recently acquired subsidiary, Apeiro Motion ("Apeiro") has launched a new line of combat-proven fiber-optic communication spools, with plans for Ondas' American Robotics subsidiary to commence U.S. production in Q4 2025. Apeiro's spools deliver secure, jam-proof connectivity across tens of kilometers in RF-denied and contested environments and are already validated in active conflict zones.
Apeiro's spools are offered in two specialized configurations tailored for mission-specific requirements: an ultra-lightweight version optimized for aerial systems and intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) drones, delivering maximum range and stealth without significant payload weight, and a Kevlar-coated version engineered for rugged ground robotics, providing durability, strength, and reliability in demanding battlefield conditions. Both product lines are built with U.S. National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA)-compliant, U.S.-sourced fiber and incorporate Apeiro's proprietary packing process-the unique feature that ensures smooth fiber flow and dramatically reduces failure rates. We believe this combination of design innovation, U.S. compliance, and proven combat performance makes Apeiro's spools the most reliable and field-ready fiber communications solution for defense and homeland security missions worldwide.
"We see Apeiro's fiber-optic spools as not only a breakthrough technology for resilient battlefield communications, but also as a growth driver for Ondas," said Eric Brock. "By establishing NDAA-compliant U.S. production at American Robotics, we are positioning ourselves to capture large-scale demand from defense and homeland security customers. This capability expands our U.S. manufacturing base, strengthens our long-term revenue profile, and underscores our strategy of building a trusted, scalable operating platform to deliver value for both our government partners and our shareholders."
"The uniqueness of Apeiro's spools, which are already becoming indispensable in the field, lie in their proven battlefield performance and design innovation," said Oshri Lugassy, Co-CEO of Ondas Autonomous Systems. "By combining combat validation, NDAA compliance, and advanced engineering, we are delivering U.S.-made fiber connectivity that defense and homeland security customers can rely on to ensure mission success across both aerial and ground domains."
To scale production, Ondas is expanding manufacturing of Apeiro's spools to its U.S. subsidiary American Robotics, with full NDAA-compliant mass production set to begin in Q4 2025. This transition ensures that the spools are built exclusively within U.S. supply chains, meeting the strictest American defense and homeland security standards while supporting rapid deployment to global customers.
The launch of Apeiro's fiber spools follows Ondas' August 2025 acquisition of the company, which added advanced ground robotics and proprietary communication technologies to the Ondas portfolio. With the addition of secure fiber communications, Ondas extends its Continuum of Autonomy beyond air and land platforms into trusted, combat-proven connectivity solutions for multi-domain defense operations.
