C-COM Satellite Systems was… is… and will continue to be a busy company based upon their expertise in the world of antennas.
The company’s history reveals why they are thriving today as a result of their past forays in the realm of antennas. C-COM Satellite Systems are pioneers in the manufacturing of motorized antenna systems for the delivery of broadband internet to any location via satellite.
The company manufactures its iNetVu® brand in Driveaway (vehicle mount), Flyaway (transportable), Manpack (backpack) and FMA (fixed motorized) format. Currently there are more than 8,000 systems deployed in over 100 countries.
That was then and this is now … where their latest endeavor finds them in partnership with the University of Waterloo creating its first Electronically Steerable Phased Array Antenna. C-COM tested its Ka-band, chip-based modules using the company’s patent-pending phase shifter technology in the summer of 2016. The proof of concept prototype is expected to come out in 2019.
