Eagle Broadband, Inc. (AMEX:EAG), a leading provider of
broadband, Internet Protocol (IP) and communications technology and
services, announced today the latest addition to its SatMAX (Satellite
Media Access Extender) product line -- The SatMAX Alpha Emergency
Communications System (Alpha ECS).
Earlier this week, Eagle announced a distribution agreement for
the SatMAX Alpha ECS with World Communication Center (WCC), a leading
provider of global satellite voice and data communications solutions.
The Alpha ECS is a portable, Iridium based satellite phone
emergency communications system designed for disaster recovery, crisis
management and emergency preparedness. The Alpha ECS creates a
satellite communications "Hotspot" that enables users to make fully
wireless, satellite voice communications available from anywhere in
the world without requiring line-of-sight and which can interconnect
seamlessly with the public telephone system. It is ideal for any
organization that needs highly reliable primary, backup or emergency
voice communications including: first responders, Homeland Security,
Federal, State and Local Government Agencies as well as corporations
and enterprises.
"We wanted to add a complete, portable, all in one package,
solution to our SatMAX product line to allow for quick communications
in the event of a natural disaster or terrorist activity. During a
crisis, it is critical to have the flexibility of a "deployable
instantly and anywhere" reliable phone communications system," said
Dave Micek, President and CEO of Eagle Broadband.
The portable Alpha ECS system contains 1 SatMAX unit, one high
capacity battery, 3 Full Iridium Phone Kits, A/C charger with Int'l
plug adapters, car charger, leather holster, antenna adapter, portable
auxiliary antenna, earbud and user manual. Also included is a standard
minute plan that can be upgraded if needed. The Alpha ECS system
allows first responders to stay connected in the harshest weather
conditions. The technology enables routine, mission critical and
backup communications that can improve safety and security, emergency
preparedness and response, user productivity, mobility, problem
solving and mission support.
