specfications
The RIOS Starlink product line consists of two core offerings, each selected for its specific role within the RIOS architecture. This hardware provides the primary, high-throughput data pipe that connects the revenue-generating AI Compute Cluster and critical services to the global internet, bypassing compromised or non-existent terrestrial networks. [1]Within the RIOS framework, the Starlink connection is managed by an SD-WAN appliance, which provides intelligent load-balancing and seamless failover to a secondary Trifi multi-carrier cellular network, ensuring the entire system remains “always-on.”
[2]
a comprehensive list of components of the RIOS Starlink Product Line
The product line is composed of two strategic Starlink kits, deployed across the RIOS Campus and Mobile product lines respectively:

Starlink Business Kit:
- Components: High-performance satellite dish (“dishy”), power supply, and cabling.
- Strategic Role: This is the foundational component for the RIOS Campus 15 and RIOS Campus 30 networks. [2]It is designed for high-demand, stationary applications and provides the necessary bandwidth and reliability to service the AI Compute Cluster and provide public Wi-Fi access for an entire community. The RIOS Campus 15 utilizes 3 Starlink Business Kits, while the larger Campus 30 scales up to 5 kits to handle the increased data load.
  [2]
Starlink Roam Kit (Referred to as Mobile/RV Edition in RIOS documentation):
- Components: Standard or Flat High-Performance mobile satellite dish, cable, and power supply unit.
  [3] * Strategic Role: This kit is the primary satellite data pipe for the RIOS-Mobile Pillar II (Sovereign Connectivity Pro Kit) and Pillar III (Off-Grid Command Center). [3][4]It is designed for in-motion and portable use, providing high-speed internet to vehicles and mobile command centers operating in remote locations where cellular coverage may be unavailable.
  [5]
  where it is best deployed

Starlink Business Kit: Best deployed as the primary internet backhaul for stationary, high-demand RIOS infrastructure, such as in rural communities, post-conflict zones, and developing nations where reliable terrestrial internet is unavailable.
[1]* Starlink Roam Kit: Best deployed on vehicles and mobile platforms for professionals, remote workers, and operators who require mission-critical connectivity while on the move or in remote, off-grid locations.
[3]
what kind of performance metricts should you expect
The primary performance metric is resilient, high-speed, low-latency broadband internet access, independent of terrestrial infrastructure.
High-Speed Connectivity: Enables streaming, video calls, online gaming, and remote work in even the most remote locations.
[5]* Guaranteed Uptime (within the RIOS system): When integrated into the RIOS SD-WAN, the system provides instantaneous, packet-level failover to a cellular backup, eliminating dropped calls and failed transactions if the satellite signal is temporarily obstructed.
[3]* Global Coverage: Provides a direct, non-censorable uplink to the global internet, which is critical for the sovereignty and financial viability of the RIOS AI Compute Cluster.
[1]
what the cost is
The cost of the Starlink hardware and its associated monthly subscription must be acquired separately by the user and is not included in the price of the RIOS hardware kits.
The RIOS Campus 15 and 30 network packages (priced at $149,000 and $240,000 respectively) are designed to integrate with the Starlink Business kits.
[2]* The RIOS-Mobile Pillar II and III kits (priced at $2,999 and $7,999 respectively) are designed to integrate with a user-provided Starlink Roam kit. [3][4]Starlink offers a 30-day trial for its hardware.
[5]
what the big benifit if ownership is
The biggest benefit is achieving geographic and communication independence. By using a LEO satellite backhaul, a RIOS deployment is completely free from the vulnerabilities of terrestrial networks. This ensures that external blockades, censorship, or damage to local fiber/cable lines cannot compromise the community’s connection to the global digital economy, thereby securing the revenue stream that makes the entire RIOS model self-sustaining.
[1]
the brands differential advantage
DeReticular’s advantage is not in selling the Starlink hardware itself, but in its strategic integration of Starlink as a core component of a resilient, self-funding ecosystem. While anyone can buy a Starlink dish, only the RIOS architecture fuses it with a multi-carrier cellular failover, an enterprise-grade SD-WAN, and a revenue-generating AI core. This transforms Starlink from a standalone internet solution into a truly mission-critical component of a sovereign infrastructure platform.

a High-quality image:
(Image not available in search results)

specfications
The Sovereign Connectivity Pro Kit is designed to fuse two powerful, independent internet connections—a Starlink LEO Satellite connection and a Trifi Multi-Carrier Cellular connection—into a single, resilient network.[1] The system’s central intelligence, a Micro-SD-WAN manager, actively load-balances traffic across both connections for maximum speed under normal conditions.[1] Crucially, if one connection is compromised (e.g., a satellite signal is blocked or a cell tower is congested), the system instantly and silently shunts all traffic to the functional connection at the packet level. This is not a simple failover; it is engineered resilience that guarantees data flow.[1]

a comprehensive list of components
The Sovereign Connectivity Pro Kit includes the following components:[1]

Micro-SD-WAN Router/Manager: A high-performance, dedicated processor running RIOS firmware that acts as the central brain, fusing and managing traffic for instant failover and load-balancing.
Trifi Far X Router (Cellular Gateway): An industrial-grade 4G/LTE/5G-ready router that provides the core cellular link.
Trifi Multi-Carrier vSIM Module: An activated SIM with dynamic data pooling across all major national cellular networks, providing the resilient backup connection.
Dedicated Starlink Integration Kit: A custom cable modification and adapter to ensure the user-provided Starlink dish can be seamlessly integrated and managed by the SD-WAN hardware.
Dual High-Gain Antenna Array: A roof-mountable antenna that maximizes cellular signal capture and extends the local Wi-Fi range.

where it is best deployed
This kit is essential for any mobile professional or remote worker who cannot afford a dropped connection. It is best deployed in vehicles operating in remote or variable locations where a single connection type, whether satellite or cellular, may be intermittently blocked, congested, or unavailable. It is the ideal solution for ensuring operational reliability far from urban infrastructure.[1]

what kind of performance metricts should you expect
The key performance metrics are Guaranteed Uptime and Optimal Speed.[1]

The system eliminates dropped video calls, failed transactions, and interrupted data flow through instantaneous, packet-level failover.[1]
It dynamically load-balances traffic across both satellite and cellular links to provide the maximum sustained bandwidth possible at any given moment.[1]

what the cost is
The suggested retail price for The Sovereign Connectivity Pro Kit is $2,999.00 USD. This price includes all the RIOS-Mobile integration hardware, the Trifi Router, and the first month of the Premium Trifi vSIM connectivity service. It notably excludes the cost of the Starlink dish and its associated subscription, which must be purchased separately by the user.[1]

what the big benifit if ownership is
The biggest benefit is achieving mission-critical reliability in a mobile environment. The kit deploys the same municipal-grade network redundancy logic used in corporate headquarters in a compact, mobile package. This transforms a vulnerable, consumer-grade hotspot into a resilient, professional-grade communications hub you can depend on.[1]

the brands differential advantage
DeReticular’s differential advantage is its focus on providing a fully integrated, unbreakable system. While others sell individual components, DeReticular delivers an engineered solution where hardware and software (the RIOS firmware) work in concert to fuse multiple networks into a single, smarter pipe. This “SD-WAN in a Box” approach provides a level of engineered resilience and guaranteed uptime that standalone products cannot match, empowering professionals to operate with confidence from the most remote locations.

Internal Report: Trifi Wireless RIOS Campus Product Definition – DeReticular

Stop Building Data Centers. Start Building Economies.

Michael Noel · October 30, 2025 ·

For a generation, the story of technology has been one of centralization. Power, capital, and opportunity have been drawn into a handful of gleaming corporate fortresses, leaving countless communities on the outside looking in. We have been told this is the only way forward.

At DeReticular, we believe this is a failure of imagination.

What if, instead of building another monolithic data center in the desert, we could weave a supercomputer into the very fabric of a community? What if the next great leap in artificial intelligence didn’t come from a coastal tech hub, but from a network of a thousand minds humming in the barns, libraries, and small businesses of a single American town?

Introducing the DeReticular RIOS AI Compute Cluster—not just a product, but a new economic primitive.

This is Not a Server Farm. This is a Digital Nervous System.

The RIOS Cluster is a radical reimagining of high-performance computing. We take one thousand NVIDIA H100 servers—the most powerful AI processors on the planet—and distribute them, node by node, throughout your community.

Connected by a resilient Wi-Fi 7 mesh, they cease to be individual machines and become something more: a single, decentralized supercomputer with the power to compete on the global stage.

Exa-Scale Power, Local Control: Command nearly an ExaFLOP of AI performance, generating a sovereign revenue stream by selling compute capacity to the world’s most innovative companies.
Energy Independence: The cluster is designed to run on a sovereign, local power grid, converting local resources into the energy needed to power the future.
The Data Flywheel Effect: The revenue from the AI cluster funds local infrastructure (like autonomous transportation and smart grids), which generates unique, real-world data. This data, in turn, makes the cluster’s AI models more valuable, creating a self-perpetuating cycle of prosperity.

To view the deployment schedule, track inventory for your municipality, or monitor the status of an existing order, please visit our logistics and fulfillment portal.

An Operating System for Your Town’s Future

The AI Cluster is the engine, but the Rural Infrastructure Operating System (RIOS) is the blueprint. This is not just about deploying hardware; it’s about igniting a local ecosystem. The cluster provides the revenue and the computational backbone to launch a new generation of interconnected, locally-owned businesses in energy, transportation, agriculture, and entrepreneurship.

It is the architecture for a 21st-century company town, where the company is owned by the community itself.

Begin the Transformation

The deployment of a RIOS AI Cluster is a foundational act of economic sovereignty. It is a declaration that the future is not something you wait for; it is something you build, right where you are.
