HAUPPAUGE, N.Y.--(Business Wire)--
Globecomm Systems Inc. (NASDAQ: GCOM), a leading global provider of
satellite-based communications infrastructure solutions and services, announced
today that it would introduce a new portable X-band satellite terminal at the
SATCON 2009 exhibition and conference at the Jacob Javits Convention Center in
New York City on October 14-15. The TomCat X-Band terminal is a light-weight,
man-transportable X-band satellite communications system that sets-up and can be
operational within minutes. It is fully integrated and operates on a variety of
power sources. It is ideally suited for tactical and other rapid-response
applications that operate in harsh conditions and in remote locations. As part
of Globecomm`s Explorer terminal product line, the TomCat X-Band terminal fits
in a single transit case which meets the requirements for checked baggage aboard
commercial airlines. User-friendly monitor and control features include built-in
diagnostics, an integrated spectrum analyzer, and a comprehensive GUI (Graphic
User Interface) for use with a laptop computer. 

Globecomm will display the TomCat X-Band terminal and provide additional
information on its unique design at Booth #725 on the show floor at SATCON 2009.


David Hershberg, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of Globecomm Systems Inc.,
said: "The TomCat terminal represents the next stage in the evolution of our
Explorer product line. It creates new, flexible and cost-effective
comms-on-the-pause options for the small unit operating anywhere in the
footprint of an X-band satellite."
