Direct-to-Device Satellite & 5G NTN Ground Segments: Why RFoF Is the Quiet Enabler
The satellite communications industry is entering a decisive transition: Direct-to-Device (D2D) connectivity, often described as Satellite-to-Phone, Tower-to-Device (T2D), and Network-to-Device (N2D), is moving from early demonstrations to scaled, operational deployments. As operators pursue 3GPP-aligned 5G Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN) and D2D service models, the limiting factor is increasingly not the spacecraft but the ground segment RF
