The gateways Vega BS-1.2 and Vega BS-2.2 were assigned the status of “Telecommunication equipment of Russian origin” by Order No. 2925 of the Ministry of Industry and Trade of Russia dated 03.08.2021.

This status is significant due to the new conditions for the use of gateways in the Russian Federation:

- commissioning of communication networks in accordance with the procedure established in the Russian Federation;

- from December 1, 2021, it is only allowed to use gateways produced in the territory of the Russian Federation, which have been assigned the “Telecommunication equipment of Russian origin” status.

This means that, all other things being equal, when making such purchases, preference should be given to products with the assigned “Telecommunication equipment of Russian origin”status.

Gateways Vega-Absolut are included in the register of Russian radio-electronic products and can be freely installed on all state and municipal facilities.
