Design of command and data handling subsystems for small satellites is in the focus for many in space industry and academia. For today a plenty of small satellites have been designed, manufactured and launched. However, while the application calls for the highly standardized platform, an overview of the projects shows a vast diversity of different hardware solutions on the market. The aim of this paper is to explore the possibilities of platform-based design for the task. A Universal Module for Managing the Information is presented to be a basic node for an onboard network that comprises a command and data handling subsystem of a spacecraft bus.
