According to Beam Communications Pty Ltd., all of its Inmarsat satellite communications products have received Japanese Type Approval and can now be sold in the Japanese market.
The Japanese regulatory environment requires all equipment that emits Radio Frequency (RF) energy must undergo stringent testing. If they pass the test, they will be granted Japanese Type Approval, which is also known as “Giteki” or “Ninsho” certification.
In addition, those same equipment must be certified for electrical safety. Only those which bear a “PSE” mark will be permitted in the Japanese market.
Among the Inmarsat products offered by Beam which were now cleared for sale in Japan are the IsatDock Docking Stations used for the IsatPhone Pro Satellite Handset, and the Terra 400/800 and Oceana 400/800 terminals, which support the Inmarsat FleetPhone and LinkPhone SATCOM services.
The Inmarsat IsatPhone Pro and GSPS satellite communications services have recently debuted in Japan. Now that they have received official Japanese Type Approval, Beam can actively hawk and sell them to Japanese customers.
JSAT MOBILE Communications Inc., Japan Digital Corporation, and SatCom Global will be among the Japanese companies that will sell the certified Inmarsat satellite communications terminals on behalf of Beam. The aforementioned companies are strategic Inmarsat partners.
