Eagle Broadband Signs Deal For Orb' Phone Exchange Data Solution
San Diego - Jan 21, 2004 Eagle Broadband, Inc. announced Tuesday that Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) has signed a distribution agreement to sell Eagle's Orb' Phone Exchange satellite communications platform to government, military, homeland security and commercial customers worldwide. Eagle's Orb' Phone Exchange technology leverages global satellite communication networks, such as Globalstar and Iridium, to deliver critical voice and data services for multiple concurrent users in non-line-of-sight operating environments, such as within buildings, aircraft, ships, dense metropolitan areas, and remote/underground locations. The technology provides worldwide communications coverage that can greatly enhance user productivity, mobility, problem solving, field-to-headquarters collaboration, and emergency backup/response for a wide range of mission-critical and everyday communications applications. The platform is ideally suited for areas where voice and data communication service is not traditionally available and mobility, flexibility, and reliability are essential. The agreement grants SAIC non-exclusive distribution rights for the Orb' Phone Exchange in both domestic and international markets and establishes a framework for marketing and selling, solution bundling, product enhancements, and business development. In addition, SAIC will be designated as an Eagle Broadband Preferred Communication Solutions associate, which gives SAIC access to custom development services, project financing, expedited product delivery, and comprehensive market development resources. "The Orb' Phone Exchange enables SAIC to expand its position in communications systems and technologies thus satisfying a broader range of critical customer communications needs," said Eric Kaiser, SAIC corporate vice president, software and communications systems. "We see many applications for this exciting new technology and look forward to working closely with Eagle Broadband to make the Orb' Phone Exchange available to our military, government and commercial customers worldwide." "SAIC is a great company with very deep relationships with some of the most sophisticated and respected communications users in the world," said Dave Weisman, chief executive officer, Eagle Broadband. "We view this relationship as a great opportunity to extend the addressable markets for the Orb' Phone Exchange platform. We look forward to working closely with SAIC to deliver quality non-line-of-sight communication capabilities to their demanding customer base."
