[SatNews] C-COM Satellite Systems Inc., (TSX VENTURE:CMI) has entered into a strategic partnership with Vislink (LSE:VLK).

Vislink will promote, market, sell and support the C-COM manufactured range of iNetVu® products, which would complement Vislink's existing product range and allow it to expand into new vertical markets including oil & gas; mining; police, fire, emergency and disaster management.

The iNetVu® mobile antennas will be integrated with Vislink's technology and sold by Vislink to their customers as turnkey systems. C-COM will also promote and sell Vislink's high end SNG and MSAT antenna products by making it available to all its resellers around the globe.

C-COM and Vislink will co-operate on joint R&D projects to develop new products and to leverage on the support programs and incentives offered for research and development in Canada. "The combined resources and strengths of both companies should reduce overall costs for research and development and also reduce time to market," said Bilal Awada, CTO of C-COM Satellite Systems Inc.
