C-COM Delivers Mobile Antennas to Hughes
Posted on: Tuesday, 12 February 2008, 09:00 CST
C-COM Satellite Systems Inc. (TSX VENTURE: CMI) announced today that it has delivered a quantity of iNetVu mobile antennas to Hughes Network Systems, LLC (Hughes), the world's leading provider of broadband satellite networks and services. Hughes will implement the iNetVu antennas in providing its HughesNet broadband satellite service to a major oil and gas services company, reaching vehicles and movable structures in remote exploration areas.
The iNetVu mobile antenna was selected based on its ease-of-use and high reliability. This followed extensive field trials during which the antenna systems were exposed to extreme weather and road conditions typical of the harsh exploration environment in which they will operate.
"We are proud that the iNetVu mobile antenna was chosen by Hughes in delivering communications services to this leading oil and gas exploration company. The C-COM-manufactured antennas are already deployed worldwide by a number of energy exploration companies, providing invaluable service to this sector by delivering instant satellite communications (data, video, and voice) in areas where there are no other means of connectivity. It is gratifying to see one of the world's leading providers of products and services to the energy industry included in this growing list of iNetVu mobile customers," said Leslie Klein, president and CEO of C-COM Satellite Systems.
