C-COM Satellite Systems Inc., (TSX VENTURE:CMI) the leading global provider of
mobile auto-deploying satellite antenna systems, announced today that it has
started supplying South Africa's largest independent telecommunications firm Vox
Telecom with iNetVu(R) Mobile antennas. 


The C-COM manufactured antennas will be used by Vox Telecom on the YahClick Go
broadband satellite service. YahClick offers Africa's first Ka-band satellite
connection providing coverage over highly targeted areas, allowing for greater
efficiencies on the ground and a lower cost to the end user. 


"With Yahclick, South Africa's first Ka-band broadband service, we've been able
to slash the price of satellite broadband costs," says Jacques Visser, Project
Manager for Vox Telecom. "Now YahClick can also be mobile, using C-COM's
technology." 


Visser says C-COM's iNetVu(R) mobile antennas have been designed from the ground
up to be fast, robust and easy to operate. "For the end user, it's literally a
matter of pressing one button," he says. "The antenna's software controller and
robotic movement systems will automatically find the satellite signal and
connect within less than five minutes. If there's no electricity, it can run off
a car battery." 


"We are pleased to have Vox Telecom to be our first YahClick Ka band integrator
in South Africa and look forward to working with them to deliver high bandwidth
mobile Ka-band solutions to their extensive customer base there," said Leslie
Klein, President and CEO of C-COM satellite Systems Inc. 


The products have already been deployed at several high-profile events in South
Africa, such as the ANC Mangaung conference in Bloemfontein, the opening game of
the AFCON in Soweto, the annual Dusi Canoe Marathon in Kwazulu-Natal and the
Charity Balloon Run event recently held in Cape Town. YahClick, in conjunction
with Wildfire TV, also provided the live webstream for over a million viewers
when Nina the Chimpanzee gave birth on camera at the Jane Gooddall Institute.
