"Ground station amplifiers from Advantech enable the continuous remote monitoring of all 47 sites on a 24/7 basis," Baylin ( BYLTF ) CEO Leighton Carroll said. "Ground station amplifiers play an important role in both civilian and defense networks, facilitating reliable communication links between multiple sites."

Baylin's ( BYLTF ) share price rose 1.2% yesterday to $0.435 on the TSX.
