MICRONETICS WIRELESS TO SUPPLY COMPONENTS FOR INTERNATIONAL SATELLITE COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEM
Hudson, NH -- Micronetics Wireless, Inc., (NASDAQ:NOIZ) announced today that it has been designated the primary supplier of Voltage Controlled Oscillators (VCOs) for the initial phase of a new, international satellite communications system that will gather environmental data. It is estimated that over 100,000 units will be required over the next two years.

VCOs are components widely used in today's wireless systems to direct RF frequencies to the appropriate channels during voice, data or video transmission.

The VCOs used in this particular application are from the Micronetics Wireless M3500 VCO product family, which is designed to deliver dependable performance even under the less-than-ideal conditions encountered in the real world.

The Micronetics Wireless VCOs will be used in a new generation of very small aperture technology (VSAT) terminals where they will control the signal processing functions from the satellite back to the ground.

Headquartered in Hudson, NH, Micronetics Wireless develops and manufactures specialized RF components and test equipment that's designed to help OEMs and service providers deliver high quality, reliable communications systems and services.

Statements in this press release contain forward-looking material. Actual results may vary due to a number of risks and uncertainties.
