April 2025 – Fremont, CA

We’re proud to announce that the Botswana Communications Regulatory Authority (BOCRA) has selected TCI as the official provider of a cutting-edge Automated Spectrum Monitoring System (ASMMS) for the Republic of Botswana.

This strategic project, awarded through an international competitive tender, was secured by TCI in partnership with Saipem Enterprises (Pty) Ltd. The initiative supports BOCRA’s ongoing mission to modernize and safeguard Botswana’s spectrum environment as digital connectivity expands across the nation.

A Future-Ready Spectrum Monitoring Solution

The new system includes:

• Three Fixed Stations (upgrading existing sites)
• One Transportable Station
• One Mobile Station
• One Portable Station
• Full operational range from 9 kHz to 8.5 GHz

All stations will feature ITU-compliant monitoring, Time Difference of Arrival (TDOA), and Direction Finding (DF) capabilities. At the heart of the upgrade is TCI’s Model 759 Compact Spectrum Monitoring equipment and Scorpio™ software, creating a unified, flexible platform operable from any Scorpio client within BOCRA’s network.

Additionally, integration with BOCRA’s license database will enable Automatic Violation Detection (AVD) – a major leap forward in regulatory enforcement and spectrum efficiency.

Empowering Local Capabilities

TCI’s turnkey approach includes:

• System installation and commissioning
• In-depth training and local skills transfer
• A three-year extended warranty and maintenance services

By ensuring sustainable, long-term operational support, the system doesn’t just bring advanced technology to Botswana – it empowers BOCRA’s team to manage and evolve with it.

Timeline and Impact

The contract was officially signed in March 2025, with project completion scheduled for October 2025. Once deployed, the ASMMS will enhance BOCRA’s ability to address emerging spectrum management needs as next-generation communications like 5G, IoT, and beyond—take hold in the region.

We’re honored to be BOCRA’s chosen partner on this vital project. This initiative represents a significant investment in the future of Botswana’s communications infrastructure, and we’re excited to deliver the latest in spectrum monitoring technology.
