Our Story

Built to solve the hardest problems.

In 2004, three talented engineers had an idea. They believed they could build something different — a company grounded in technical excellence, driven by innovation, and committed to putting customers first. They saw opportunity where others saw challenges, and built 3dB Labs on the conviction that solving hard problems for our customers would always be our purpose.

Out of that came Sceptre. What began as a solution to [original customer challenge] evolved into an RF platform that helps protect our nation, supports our allies, and serves commercial customers around the world — and earned recognition throughout the industry as a platform others want to partner with. Sceptre is proof of what a small, focused team can accomplish by refusing to accept “good enough.”

Together, we've grown from a small engineering firm into an organization trusted to solve some of our nation's most complex signal processing and RF challenges.
