March 20, 2019-- Comtech Telecommunications Corp. (Nasdaq:
CMTL) announced today that during its third quarter of fiscal 2019,
its Orlando, Florida-based subsidiary, Comtech Systems, Inc., which
is part of Comtech’s Government Solutions segment, received
approximately $2.2 million in orders to provide fixed site
troposcatter systems for the Midia Gas Development (“MGD”) Project
in Romania. This 2 GHz troposcatter installation will enable secure
communications between the shore site and an unmanned platform
approximately 120 km offshore in the Black Sea. This link will
enable remote monitoring and control beyond the reach of other
terrestrial systems, with less latency than is possible with
satellite communications. This system represents the first modern
troposcatter system to be deployed in Europe for a commercial
application, highlighting renewed demand for terrestrial,
high-bandwidth, over-the-horizon communication systems for critical
data links in the commercial world.
Fred Kornberg, President and Chief Executive Officer of Comtech
Telecommunications Corp., stated, “This project shows the growing
need for commercial troposcatter systems to enable low-latency,
high through-put data links across areas that are otherwise
inaccessible due to geography or other factors. As the only modern
company with extensive experience supplying troposcatter systems to
the Oil & Gas market, Comtech is a natural choice for the MGD
project.”
Comtech Systems, Inc. (www.comtechsystems.com) specializes
in system design, integration, supply and commissioning of turnkey
communication systems including troposcatter, line-of-sight
microwave and satellite.
Comtech Telecommunications Corp. designs, develops, produces and
markets innovative products, systems and services for advanced
communications solutions. The Company sells products to a diverse
customer base in the global commercial and government
communications markets.
