Applicant: ISAT US Inc.
Call Sign: E150097
File No.: SES—STA—20160722—00678
Special Temporary Authority (STA)


ISAT US Inc. is authorized to operate under STA for 60 days to conduct customer demonstration
using four QTCIO GX antennas (two at each site: Reston and Chantilly, Virginia ) to
communicate with the Inmarsat 15 F2 satellite at orbital location 55 degrees W.L on the 29500—
30000 MHz (Earth—to—space) frequencies and 19700—20200 MHz (space—to—Earth) frequencies,
under the following conditions:

1. Operations will not exceed the operational power levels and parameters requested.

2. Operations, shall not cause harmful interference to, and shall not claim protection from
interference caused to it by any other lawfully operating station and it shall cease transmission(s)
immediately upon notice of such interference and notify the FCC in writing.

3. Any action taken or expense incurred as a result of operations pursuant to this STA is solely at
ISAT US, Inc.‘s risk.

4. Transmitter(s) must be turned off during antenna maintenance to ensure compliance with the
FCC—specified safety guidelines for human exposure to radiofrequency radiation in the region
between the antenna feed and the reflector.

5. The licensee shall take all necessary measures to ensure that the antenna does not create
potential exposure of humans to radiofrequency radiation in excess of the FCC exposure limits
defined in 47 CFR 1.1307(b) and 1.1310 wherever such exposures might occur. Measures must
be taken to ensure compliance with limits for both occupational/controlled exposure and for
general population/uncontrolled exposure, as defined in these rule sections. The FCC‘s OET
Bulletin 65 (available on—line at www.fcee.gov/oet/rfsafety) provides information on predicting
exposure levels and on methods for ensuring compliance, including the use of warning and
alerting signs and protective equipment for workers.

6. Grant of this authorization is without prejudice to any determination that the Commission
may make regarding pending or future ISAT US‘s applications.

This action is issued pursuant to Section 0.261 of the Commission‘s rules on delegated authority,
47 C.F.R. § 0.261, and is effective immediately.

                                            Exhibit A

                               DESCRIPTION OF STA REQUEST


I. SUMMARY

       ISAT US, Inc. ("ISAT US") hereby requests this special temporary authority ("STA") to
operate the Data Path Earth station QTCIO GX within the Inmarsat—5 Global Xpress network.
ISAT US seeks to be able to conduct demonstrations of the QTCIO0 GX terminal to potential
customers at two Inmarsat facilities in Reston and Chantilly, Virginia. These operations are
requested on a non—interference, non—protected basis. Grant of the requested STA will serve the
public interest, convenience and necessity because it will enable ISAT US to conduct
demonstrations of the terminal, consistent with the parameters described herein, without creating
any risk of harmful interference. ISAT US respectfully requests the Commission grant this STA
for a 60 day period beginning August 1, 2016.


II. DESCRIPTION OF STA REQUEST

       ISAT US seeks STA to operate four QTCIO GX terminals, two at each of two locations.
Operations of the QTCIO GX Terminal under this STA would be within the technical parameters
included in the pending application File No. SES—MOD—20160720—00669, that requests to add
this terminal type to the existing ISAT US blanket license Call Sign E150097 ("Land License").
The QTCIO GX terminals will be operated through the Inmarsat—5 F2 satellite ("I5 F2") at the
55° W.L. orbital location and the Lino Lakes Satellite Access Station that have both been
authorized for U.S. market access.‘ Operations will be conducted within a 1 mile radius of the
following two locations:


Chantilly, VA
Latitude = 38° 53‘ 32.2656"
Longitude = 77° 26‘ 38.6232"




* See Inmarsat Mobile Networks, Inc., Granted March 30, 2015, (Call Sign E120072;
IBFS File No. SES—LIC—20120426—00397) ("Lino Lakes Order").


Reston, VA
Latitude = 38° 56‘ 51.7056"N
Longitude = 77° 20‘ 53.4726" W


       The terminals will operate in the following frequencies, which are the same as those
already licensed by the Commission for similar terminals in the Land License:
                                    Transmit: 29.5—30.0 GHz
                                    ‘Receive: 19.7—20.2 GHz
       ISAT US incorporates by reference the technical parameters of the QTCIO GX Terminal
type as set forth in File No. SES—MOD—20160720—00669 that show compliance with the off—axis
EIRP density levels in Section 25.138 of the Commission‘s rules. The STA operations will be
closely monitored by the Inmarsat Network Operations Center (NOC) and various engineering
teams associated with the demonstration campaign to ensure compliance with all conditions of
the existing Land License. The equipment will be marked to warn of potential radiation
exposure, and the terminals will be in professionally installed locations. Radiation exposure
prevention measures will be tailored to the specific location to ensure compliance with the
Commission‘s radiation exposure limits. It is expected that the proposed STA operations would
commence on August 1, 2016 for a duration of 60 days.
