What Geosync Microwave does

GeoSync Microwave, Inc. is a privately held RF and microwave component and subsystem designer and manufacturer based in Hauppauge, New York, founded in 2008 by a team of RF engineers led by Arthur Faverio, the former founder of MITEQ and creator of its satcom products business unit. The company operates from a 20,000 square foot facility with 8,500 square feet of manufacturing and laboratory space, and is ISO 9001 certified and ITAR registered for defense exports. Its product portfolio spans VHF through V-band frequencies and includes block converters (rack-mounted, outdoor, and module formats), frequency synthesizers with ultra-low phase noise, low noise amplifiers covering S, C, Ku, Ka, X, P, and Q bands, redundant switching systems in 1:1, 1:2, and 1:N configurations, amplifier systems, test translators, amplitude/slope equalizers, multi-voltage power supplies, and uplink power control systems, with over 80 catalog SKUs and custom-engineered variants.

The company sells through a direct enterprise sales motion coupled with a global representative channel covering South Korea, Taiwan, Italy, Japan, Australia/New Zealand, India, and a combined France/Spain/Belgium/Luxembourg territory. All quotes are handled on a request-a-quote basis with no public pricing. Customers are concentrated in U.S. Department of Defense satcom agencies, national security agencies, DOD satcom primes and subcontractors, major commercial satellite communications providers, and satcom systems OEMs. The company has signaled expansion beyond its SATCOM and defense core into electronic warfare systems, 5G millimeter wave infrastructure, airborne and ship-borne communications, and custom test equipment. There is no disclosed external funding, no disclosed revenue, and no parent company; the firm appears to remain founder-led and independent.
