C-COM Satellite Systems Inc., a global provider of mobile auto-deploying satellite antenna systems, has received a single order valued at $2.3 million for its iNetVu mobile antenna systems from one of its leading Asian resellers.
Officials with C-COM (News - Alert) Satellite said that the iNetVu vehicle mount antenna systems will be used for a number of different applications.
The order is expected to be completed prior to the end of November of this year, with initial shipments starting in August.
"This order is the largest single order the company has received to date from Asia for its iNetVu products,” said Leslie Klein (News - Alert), president and CEO of C-COM.
Klein said that the iNetVu antenna systems have been very well received throughout Asia and are becoming the de facto standard for mobile satellite applications in one of the fastest growing markets in the world.
“The iNetVu systems have proven to be cost-effective, easy to use and extremely reliable," said Klein.
Earlier in June C-COM Satellite Systems had announced that it has received $1,000,000 worth of new orders for its iNetVu mobile antenna systems from China.
Officials with C-COM Satellite said that the iNetVu Flyaway and Vehicle mount antenna systems will be used for cellular backhaul, emergency backup and disaster management and are expected to ship by the end of this quarter.
Back in May, C-COM Satellite Systems had announced that it has delivered an initial number of iNetVu Mobile antenna systems to Numix-Engineering SDN BHD, its Malaysia based reseller, for deployment by Post Malaysia for this country's first-of-its-kind Post-Automated-Machine (PAM) and Post-on-Wheels, or mobile post office.
Earlier in January, the C-COM Satellite Systems Inc. had announced that iNetVu antenna has been deployed the first time for mobile breast cancer screening in rural New Zealand.
The Breast Screen Waitemata Northland unit, which began operating this month, sets the standard for mobile breast cancer screening using digital and satellite technology.
The unit’s new digital technology processes the picture within seconds, and beams it, via the iNetVu mobile satellite antenna located on top of the vehicle, to radiologists in Auckland.
