Aciedo Communications (or simply Aciedo) is a networking and telecommunications manufacturer. It is responsible for building the CommRelay infrastructure around the UEE. It has also developed the Spectrum ID (in cooperation with the Imperial Spectrum Commission) that allow for system to system communications.^[1][2]

Following the conclusion of the First Tevarin War, Humanity was eager to begin exploring the stars again. Aciedo began life as fledging ship manufacturer focused on creating long-range exploration vessels. While they saw moderate success with their initial ship design, it was the included communication drones that stood out for their reliability and transmission success. Captains across the newly formed Empire began asking Aciedo to sell them commdrones directly. Within the first year of offering them, sales skyrocketed, and it wasn't long before Aciedo decided to stop manufacturing ships entirely. Today, they are the UEE's largest communication service provider, handling over 70% of all comms, and operate commrelays, commarrays, and commdrones across the Empire.^[3]

Aciedo was founded in 2480 with the intent to manufacture long-range exploration spacecraft as Aciedo Shipworks. In 2485, the company pivoted to communications drone development and rebranded as Aciedo CommRelay.^[4]

Nowadays they handle around 70 % of the UEE communications.

Aciedo Communications was known as Aciedo CommRelay.
