Strengthening Competitiveness in High-Reliability ESA Satellite Communication Design and Manufacturing Technologies

Global Konet Co., Ltd. (GLOBAL KONET CO., LTD.), a specialized company in electronic phased array antennas, announced that it has obtained KS Q 9100 and AS 9100D certifications, the international standards for aerospace quality management systems.
Through this certification, Global Konet has been officially recognized as an excellent certified company whose quality, safety, and reliability have been comprehensively verified in the field of “design and manufacturing of wireless communication and electronic steered array (ESA) communication equipment for aerospace, space, and defense industries.”
AS9100D is the highest-level quality management system standard based on ISO 9001, reflecting the specific characteristics of the aerospace, space, and defense industries, and includes more than 100 additional requirements. The standard comprehensively demands essential elements for high-reliability industries, such as systematic risk management, rigorous configuration and change management, prevention of counterfeit parts, and product safety assurance, and is used as a key criterion for entry into the global aerospace supply chain.
During the certification process, Global Konet demonstrated that it has established a full life-cycle quality process covering the design, manufacturing, verification, and delivery of electronic beam-steering (ESA) satellite communication equipment, as well as built an advanced process control and quality management system required by the aerospace industry. As a result, the company was evaluated as having secured not only consistent product quality but also high reliability and stable delivery capabilities.
In particular, Global Konet has strengthened a demonstration-oriented quality system that reflects real operational environments, based on its ESA satellite communication design and manufacturing capabilities that take into account the harsh operating conditions required in UAVs and drones, mobile platforms, defense, and SATCOM environments. The AS9100D certification is especially meaningful in that it officially recognizes that these technical and systemic capabilities meet international aerospace quality standards.
A representative of Global Konet stated, “Obtaining AS9100D certification signifies that Global Konet has systematically secured the high-reliability satellite communication design and manufacturing technologies required in the aerospace and defense sectors,” adding, “We will continue to strengthen our competitiveness as a trusted technology partner in the global aerospace supply chain based on our electronic steered array (ESA) technology.”
Meanwhile, Global Konet is promoting product development and expanding global cooperation centered on electronic beam-steering satellite communication technology, targeting UAVs and drones, mobile platforms, defense, and next-generation SATCOM markets. Leveraging this certification, the company plans to further accelerate overseas exports and the expansion of strategic partnerships.
