DALLAS, Feb. 16, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- COMSovereign
Holding Corp. (NASDAQ: COMS) ("COMSovereign" or "Company"), a
U.S.-based developer of 4G LTE Advanced and 5G Communication
Systems and Solutions, today announced that its Virtual NetCom
(VNC) business unit has entered into a reseller agreement with
Hughes Network Systems LLC ("Hughes"), a division of EchoStar
Corporation (NASDAQ: SATS). The new agreement is for the
integration and resale of VNC's man-portable RAID 4G/LTE (Rapid
Access Independent Deployable) tactical and emergency communication
solution into Hughes' SatCell Connect service.
VNC's RAID combines the key elements of an LTE broadband
communications network into a secure, highly portable system using
the latest technological advancements such as network function
virtualization, cloud native services and orchestration. RAID
powers the LTE network portion of the SatCell Connect service,
which is a novel, rapidly-deployable wireless communication
solution that is integrated seamlessly with Hughes' satellite
backhaul.
SatCell Connect delivers the same features and functionally as
commercial mobile wireless networks while uniquely being
self-contained and portable for deployment to areas where existing
communication networks have been damaged or are non-existent. As a
self-contained and rapidly deployable communications system,
SatCell Connect is ideal for emergency response events, temporary
remote work environments, Military/Government operations and to
provide cost-effective wireless access in unserved or underserved
rural areas.
"We are pleased to announce our partnership with Hughes in
support of their SatCell Connect service, which leverages the power
of our RAID system to quickly provide vital 4G/LTE communications
capabilities in nearly any location in a matter of minutes," said
John Legters, President of Virtual
NetCom. "Whether it is 4G/LTE today, or 5G later this year,
products like RAID are helping us to deliver fully-featured
wireless communications capabilities to users wherever it is needed
without reliance on expensive and complicated network
infrastructures."
Dr. Dustin McIntire, CTO of
COMSovereign commented, "The ability to provide customers with
secure wireless connectivity in a matter of minutes in response to
emergencies or in locations where existing commercial services are
unreliable or unavailable, demonstrates the power of VNC's RAID
technology. When combined with Hughes' SatCell Connect satellite
backhaul providing ubiquitous global connectivity, the power of 4G
and 5G communications is available anywhere on the planet.
Innovative wireless access products like RAID are just one example
of how COMSovereign is working to help customers of all kinds
benefit from the ability to quickly connect to the world."
