Announcement made at commencement of Mobile
World Congress in Barcelona
Globalstar, Inc. (NYSE American: GSAT), today announced
that Spain has authorized the company to provide complementary
terrestrial services, over its mobile satellite spectrum including
LTE and 5G compliant services via Band 53/n53. This marks a major
step forward in the convergence of satellite and mobile terrestrial
services to connect and protect both lives and property
globally.
“Spain joins the 10 other countries globally, and is the first
in Europe, to authorize this innovative approach which ensures
greater connectivity solutions,” said L. Barbee Ponder, Globalstar
General Counsel, and Vice President of Regulatory Affairs. “Spain
is leading the way in Europe on this important initiative, as we
continue to work with other European administrations to bring the
same communication solutions to their countries.”
On behalf of everyone at Globalstar, we thank the Spanish
Ministry for the Economy and Digital Transformation, the Government
of Castilla La Mancha, the U.S. Embassy in Madrid, Telecom CLM, and
our in-country team of dedicated professionals for this great
achievement.
Telecom CLM is a valued partner and has provided support to host
Globalstar’s new ground station as the anchor tenant of its
international teleport at Alcazar de San Juan. The new Spanish
ground station joins three others in Europe (France, Greece, and
Estonia), to ensure robust service quality and redundant coverage
for mobile satellite services throughout the European continent, as
well as north Africa.
