Stratos Global Corporation, the leading global provider of advanced mobile and fixed-site remote communications solutions, today announced that its subsidiary Stratos Wireless Inc. has been granted a spectrum license by Industry Canada to offer the BGAN mobile satellite service to Canadian businesses and government agencies. Stratos is the first company licensed to offer BGAN to the Canadian market.

Stratos is one of the world's largest distributors of Inmarsat's BGAN (Broadband Global Area Network), a mobile satellite service that uses portable, lightweight terminals to provide simultaneous, high-speed data (up to 492 kbps) and voice connectivity anywhere in the world. BGAN is ideally suited to enable communications in areas where terrestrial or cellular networks are damaged, congested, or non-existent.

Since its introduction in 2006, BGAN from Stratos has been widely adopted by military & NGO agencies, media organizations, first responders and professionals in many other industries worldwide.

Stratos now boasts BGAN customers in 185 countries, which cover 95 percent of the BGAN footprint. These customers fully utilize the Stratos Advantage, a suite of value-added services that help make BGAN usage more productive and affordable.

"Now that we offer BGAN from Stratos to the Canadian market, we expect a significant number of professionals and government officials to benefit from the same high levels of convenience, performance and productivity that BGAN has been providing to others worldwide," said Stratos President and CEO Jim Parm. "We look forward to working with leading Canadian organizations to demonstrate how Stratos can make mobile broadband satellite solutions easy to use and efficient to own."
