Globalstar Announces Construction of New Ground Station in Talkeetna, Alaska and Expansion of Existing Ground Station in Wasilla, Alaska

Supporting its Third-Generation Mobile Satellite Services Across the Northern United States and Canada

Globalstar, Inc. (NASDAQ: GSAT), a next-generation telecommunications infrastructure and technology provider today announced the deployment of new ground station equipment in Talkeetna, Alaska, the company’s first installation at this existing teleport. The site, operated by MicroCom, will host two new 6-meter tracking antennas as part of Globalstar’s expanding ground infrastructure to support its third-generation C-3 mobile satellite system.

In addition to the installation at Talkeetna, Globalstar is also expanding its existing ground station in Wasilla to add two additional 6-meter tracking antennas. Together, these four antennas – proudly made in the U.S.A. – will ensure high service quality and redundancy of essential network elements, supporting a next generation of mobile satellite connectivity, including IoT and D2D solutions that are essential in the vast ruggedness of the Alaskan landscape.

“Your ability to stay connected shouldn’t stop just because your terrestrial network did,” said L. Barbee Ponder, General Counsel and Vice President of Regulatory Affairs. “With Globalstar, you remain connected no matter where your business ventures or personal wonderings may take you – even across Alaska and the Great Northwest.”

The four new antennas being installed in Alaska are part of a sweeping global expansion including up to 90 new tracking antennas supporting Globalstar’s third-generation C-3 Satellite System. This expansion represents a significant investment in the functionality, capacity, and future proofing of its network and is designed to support a next generation of services to hundreds of millions of people around the world.
