KG-255XJ Multi-Channel Ground Operating Equipment (GOE)
Flexible, next-generation Satellite Operations Center data protection
The Viasat KG-255XJ is the next-generation End Cryptographic Unit (ECU) for securing Telemetry, Tracking, and Commanding (TT&C) and mission data in Satellite Operation Centers (SOCs). It can protect Top Secret/Sensitive Compartmented Information (TS/SCI) and below data, help reduce integration costs, and seamlessly integrate into networks.

The flexible KG-255XJ is configurable for multiple cryptographic functions using industry standard Ethernet interfaces for both data and control.
Building upon the applications of the KS-252 with lower size, weight, and power (SWaP), the Viasat KG-255XJ has higher traffic data throughput while supporting existing algorithms, formats, and features like TT&C, Command Spacing Stamp (CSS), Cypher Text (CT) Inversion, and traffic statistics.
Leveraging Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, this high-availability security appliance delivers modern networking standards for your SOC. The KG-255XJ has the ability to host a wide range of networking applications within its high-assurance boundaries, such as system logging protocol (SYSLOG), Network Time Protocol (NTP), and Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP).
Additionally, the Viasat KG-255XJ is software reprogrammable, allowing you to conveniently upgrade or modify its functionality for future applications including updated algorithms, key specifications, additional network support, cybersecurity support, and Transmission Security (TRANSEC).
Crypto-modernization centric
- Six independent channels
- Each channel is configurable:
- Algorithm and mode
- Key
- Direction (encryption or decryption)
- Source/Destination address
- Each channel is configurable:
- Encryption and decryption channels each have aggregate throughput of 900 Mbps (1800 Mbps total)
- Human-machine interface (HMI) and Representational State Transfer (REST) man-machine interface (MMI) control interfaces
- Software upgradable
- Programmable encryption
- Adapt to evolving security requirements
- Upgrade to the latest commercial standards
Light weight, compact size
- Less than 9 lbs
- Two KG-255XJs fit side-by-side in a standard 19 in. x 1U rack
*Throughput speeds are shown for UDP with 1 channel.
