hiSky Granted FCC
Approval for Smartellite™ Ku Dynamic Terminal

hiSky has received Federal
Communication Commission (FCC) certification for its
Smartellite™ Ku Dynamic terminal.
The certification process done
by CTC advanced's laboratories in Germany marks the
end of a painstaking process to ensure the safety
and durability of the unique hiSky ground terminals
in compliance with FCC and ETSI (European
Telecommunications Standards Institute) standards.
hiSky’s Smartellite™ satellite
terminals include a state-of-the-art, electronically
steerable phased array antenna, designed in Ka-band
or Ku-band variants, which locates GEO satellites
automatically, making it highly attractive for
customers operating in mobile environments.
Uniquely, the terminals are also designed to meet
the requirements of LEO satellites, advanced new
satellites that will be launched and operational in
the next decade, guaranteeing a future-proofed
solution that will correlate with the market’s
connectivity demands.
The Smartellite™ ground
terminals are the end-user component of the hiSky
network ecosystem, also consisting of the hiSky HUB
and Packet Processor as the teleport component, and
the hiSky360 cloud-based network management system
(NMS). The network is specifically designed to
transmit and receive IoT/Machine-to-Machine data, at
low-data-rates associated with remote IoT
applications.
hiSky’s network is agnostic to
satellite, allowing deployment with any
constellation offering Ka-band or Ku-band over GEO
satellites. The newly certified Smartellite™ Dynamic
terminals have been tested by multiple teir-1
constilations worldwide, allowing global
distribution partners, resellers and satellite
network integrators to sell tailor-made private
networks for their local clientelle.
“This certification marks an
important milestone in hiSky’s strategy to deliver
affordable satellite networks for IoT and MSS
applications globally. The certification is crucial
when introducing innovative hardware such as ours
into the market,” said Gal Diamant, hiSky’s COO. “a
few years back hiSky was an idea, a vision. Now that
hiSky is a fully functioning network, operated
globally, it’s only right that we invest time and
effort to certify our products in the highest
standards, it’s our commitment to our customers.”
