LANSDOWNE, VA--(Marketwire - August 10, 2009) - Fortress Technologies, the leader in secure
tactical wireless communications, today announced that it is enabling
complete on-the-move connectivity through the launch of six new products.
The products, slated for release during the LandWarNet conference next
week, meet the government's demand for man-wearable, vehicle specific, and
mesh networking capabilities.
"Through our extensive government work, especially with the Department of
Defense (DoD), we recognized the immediate need to enable net-centric
wireless communications -- anytime, anywhere," said Janet Kumpu, President,
Fortress. "The mission-critical nature of the DoD, as well as homeland
security and emergency response organizations, requires the ability to
exchange information on-the-move. Our new products provide this capability
with integrated end-to-end, government-validated security."
Fortress' new products deliver secure wireless communications for vehicle
and dismounted soldier networks, enhance the resiliency and effective range
of tactical mesh networks, and meet the need for 4.4 GHz licensed spectrum
solutions. Delivered in small and rugged form factors with industry-leading
radio range, each product ensures high performance networking under highly
mobile conditions in a wide range of environments.
The company is releasing details on each new product from the LandWarNet
show floor. LandWarNet is taking place August 18-20, 2009 at the Greater
Ft. Lauderdale/Broward County Convention Center in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida.
