C-COM Satellite Systems Inc., (TSX VENTURE:CMI), the leading global provider of
mobile auto-deploying satellite antenna systems, announced today that Hughes
Network Systems, LLC (HUGHES) has qualified the new generation iNetVu(R) Ku 981
antenna system for use with Hughes HN/HX Systems.


The iNetVu(R) 981 mobile antenna is one of the new generation of auto-pointing
antenna terminals which C-COM started manufacturing last year. The Hughes
certification will allow the new antenna to be deployed on all networks around
the world that use Hughes HN/HX Systems satellite equipment.


"This certification will further expand the addressable market for mobility
services globally for both companies," said Arunas Slekys, vice president of
corporate marketing and general manager, Russia/CIS region, "building upon the
success to date of our platforms in over 18 countries, including the U.S.,
Canada, Chile, Colombia, Russia, Ukraine, South Africa, Kenya, Angola, Nigeria,
Egypt, UAE, Kuwait, Malaysia, India, Japan, and Vietnam."


"The new 98cm auto-pointing antenna system has been designed in response to our
customers' requests for a more accurate, lighter weight and lower stow height
mechanical system. The added benefit of this product is that it requires no
maintenance and can be easily upgraded to a Ka-band antenna by a simple swap of
the feed arm," said Bilal Awada, CTO of C-COM Satellite Systems Inc.


"To date, over 1000 C-COM auto-pointing antenna systems have been deployed with
Hughes provided modems and services around the world. The results of these
deployments and the corresponding Hughes qualification demonstrate the high
level of technological ability of the C-COM engineering team. We look forward to
continuing to deliver many more advanced and highly reliable auto-pointing
antenna systems coupled with Hughes equipment and services to our customers all
over the world," said Leslie Klein, CEO of C-COM Satellite Systems Inc.
