Norsat International (NSATF) Receives Final Acceptance from NATO’s NCI Agency for Portable Satellite Terminals

QualityStocks would like to highlight Norsat International Inc. (OTCBB: NSATF), a leading provider of innovative communication solutions that enable the transmission of data, audio, and video, for challenging applications and environments. Norsat's products and services include leading-edge product design and development, production, distribution and infield support and service of portable ground station satellite terminals, antennas, Radio Frequency (RF) conditioning products, microwave components, maritime based satellite terminals and remote network connectivity solutions.

In the company’s news yesterday,

Norsat International announced that it has satisfied the in-field testing criteria of the NATO Communications and Information (NCI) Agency, and has been granted final acceptance for the company’s custom-designed dual Ku and X Band portable satellite terminals.

Norsat in August 2011 won the previously announced $1.3 million contract to provide NCI Agency with satellite-based communications equipment and services, and has designed portable satellite terminals customized to meet the agency’s specifications.

The company said its Dual-Band Auto-acquisition Rapid-deployable Terminals (DART+) have been deployed in active combat areas since January 2012, where the terminals provide data, voice and telecommunications to and from behind the lines areas. The products are expected to enable NATO’s NCI Agency to establish communications in any location, regardless of infrastructure availability or environmental conditions.

“We were pleased to win the contract to work with NATO’s NCI Agency last year, and achieving Final Acceptance for the DART+ obviously marks a significant milestone for the project. Norsat worked exclusively with NATO to design and develop the innovative DART+ product, which now meets the challenging requirements of the NCI Agency. The end result is a fit for purpose terminal, which is currently used to provide valuable communications in theatre,” Norsat’s president and CEO, Dr. Amiee Chan, stated in the press release.
