PR Newswire (US)
Demonstrations at APCO 2005 Feature the Harris SafeGuard(TM) and
SecNet 11(R) Plus Applications in a Simulated Chemical Emergency
Response DENVER, Aug. 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- To show how
third-party applications can integrate with the H-Class(TM) Content
Delivery Platform to support mission-critical communications for
emergency response, Harris Corporation (NYSE:HRS) will demonstrate
its use in scenarios that require specific situational analysis and
security capabilities at this year's Association of Public-Safety
Communications Officials conference (APCO). The demonstration will
show how public safety agencies can leverage the H-Class platform
to integrate valuable high-bandwidth content (audio, video and
pictures) typically stored within agencies' existing databases, and
manage and distribute the content to users of varying types.
Designed to address communications interoperability both at the
technical and operational levels, the H-Class Content Delivery
Platform scales from single-site to nationwide deployments, across
jurisdictions and various communications disciplines. (Harris
Corporation, Broadcast Communications Division, Booth #1729, APCO
2005, Denver Convention Center, Denver, CO, August 22 - 25.)
Utilizing the situational analysis application known as
SafeGuard(TM) and the SecNet 11(R) Plus product for secure wireless
networking, APCO attendees will witness a simulated chemical
emergency response in which pertinent hazardous material data in
the form of rich media files (e.g., 3-D visualization, maps, live
video and voice) are presented in a multimedia environment for
enhanced understanding and better decision making. Virtual
dispatchers and first responders will receive the rich media
display on laptop receivers via secure distribution of the
SafeGuard files over IP wired and wireless networks. The integrity
of the file will be maintained by the Type 1 (SECRET-level),
National Security Agency-certified SecNet 11 Plus product, which
enables users to quickly assemble a network and maintain secure and
mobile wireless communications. "Harris' concepts about broadband,
wide-area mobile delivery are very much in line with Public Safety
initiatives," said Ron Haraseth, director, Automated Frequency
Coordination, APCO International. "There is a great need for any
methodology to aggregate various delivery platforms and manage the
data flow, access rights and content in public safety. Integrated
approaches such as Harris' help us to improve communications
interoperability today and in future when multiple agencies and
jurisdictions must share the infrastructure to deliver content and,
at the same time, capitalize upon the economy of scale of shared
resources." "We're really pleased with the progress we've made
since the debut of the H-Class Content Delivery Platform at IWCE
2005. Within a span of four months, we're demonstrating the
platform's ability to run third-party applications," said John
Delay, director of strategic management for Networking Solutions,
Harris Broadcast Communications Division. "The APCO demonstration
will highlight its adaptability to easily integrate new and
existing applications while exploiting the complete value of the
underlying features of the platform." About Harris Corporation
