AAC EPIC LINK is AAC Clyde Space's communications-oriented EPIC CubeSat platform, presented for orbital missions in 6U and 8U variants.[1] The product page identifies AAC Clyde Space as manufacturer and positions the bus for communications payloads, with a 10 W payload orbit-average-power allocation, S-band TT&C and payload data links at 128 kbps uplink and 512 kbps downlink, and 4 GB onboard data storage.[1]
AAC material as of 2026-05-25 presents the 8U variant in LusoSpace programme context; that deployment context should be treated as operator-described programme material rather than independently established mission heritage in the available tier-1 and tier-2 record.[1][2] AAC's 2024 annual report provides additional company-level context for the platform line and its mission pipeline.[3]
