This industry comprises establishments primarily engaged in providing specialized telecommunications services, such as satellite tracking, communications telemetry, and radar station operation. This industry also includes establishments primarily engaged in providing satellite terminal stations and associated facilities connected with one or more terrestrial systems and capable of transmitting telecommunications to, and receiving telecommunications from, satellite systems. Establishments providing Internet services or Voice over Internet protocol (VoIP) services via client-supplied telecommunications connections are also included in this industry. Establishments in this industry do not operate as telecommunications carriers.
Start with the work promised to the client.
For All Other Telecommunications, clarify the services, contracts and consequences of an error. Review technology e&o, cyber liability, property. Confirm which professional activities and additional services the proposed coverage actually addresses.
Questions to ask
- What specific services are provided — VoIP, dial-up ISP, satellite tracking, telemetry, or a combination?
- Does the operation own or lease specialized physical infrastructure such as antenna arrays, ground stations, or satellite terminal equipment?
- Are there government, defense, or enterprise contracts with defined uptime SLAs or penalty clauses?
- How many end users or client accounts depend on the service, and what is the potential downstream impact of an outage?
- What cybersecurity controls and incident response protocols are in place?
- For All Other Telecommunications, what should the underwriter know about government or defense contracts with strict uptime slas and liquidated damages clauses?
- For All Other Telecommunications, what should the underwriter know about operations involving owned satellite transponder capacity or carrier-grade infrastructure that may push toward a carrier classification?
- For All Other Telecommunications, what should the underwriter know about prior professional liability or cyber losses involving service outages affecting multiple downstream clients?

Businesses in this class typically provide specialized telecommunications services without operating their own carrier-grade network infrastructure. Operations may include dial-up or VoIP internet access using client-supplied connections, satellite tracking and telemetry services, or operating satellite terminal stations. Day-to-day work often involves network monitoring, equipment maintenance, and managing service agreements with business or government clients.
