Harris Corporation Successfully Completes Qualification Testing of U.S. Navy Multiband SATCOM

Harris Corporation (NYSE: HRS) has successfully completed system qualification testing of a satellite terminal that will provide U.S. Navy personnel onboard frigates, cruisers and destroyers with access to the Internet, video and other broadband services. Completion of the testing moves the Commercial Broadband Satellite Program (CBSP) Unit Level Variant (ULV) contract into the initial production phase.

Under the contract, Harris will supply up to 55 advanced, 1.3-meter satellite communications terminals with X- and Ku-band capabilities. With 10 times the bandwidth currently accessible onboard Navy ships, the terminals will enable the Navy to augment military satellite communications by supporting essential mission requirements and providing high-speed Internet access and video communications to frigates and other Unit Level classified ships.

Harris was awarded the five-year, potential $77 million, Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract in 2008, and delivered the first terminal for qualification testing in just six months. The CBSP program is a Rapid Deployment Capability acquisition designed to reduce the time required to deliver critical/emerging warfighting capabilities.

"Completion of qualification testing is a key milestone for this program, as these terminals will significantly enhance the Navy's ability to provide high-data-rate satellite communications to shipboard personnel throughout the world," said Wes Covell, president, Harris Defense Programs. "This represents a new Navy SATCOM capability that will provide the most advanced communications services available to deployed personnel."

Harris Defense Programs develops, supplies, and integrates communications and information processing products, systems, and networks for a diverse base of aerospace, terrestrial and maritime applications supporting U.S. Department of Defense missions. Harris is committed to delivering leading-edge technologies that support the military's ongoing transformation to network-centric communications.

Harris Corporation's Dr. Bart Harmon to Lead Master Class Session at Electronic Healthcare Records

Retired Colonel Bart Harmon, MD, MPH, and chief medical officer of Harris Corporation's (NYSE: HRS) Healthcare Solutions business, will lead a master class in "National, Government and Military Health IT Synergy" at the Electronic Healthcare Records Summit to be held October 26-28 in Vienna, Virginia. The summit is sponsored by the Institute for Defense and Government Advancement.

The session at 2:30 p.m. October 26 will focus on lessons learned and challenges met during recent interoperability efforts related to the Nationwide Health Information Network (NHIN) CONNECT project - as well as previous DoD, VA, US National and NATO efforts. CONNECT enables healthcare providers to seamlessly exchange information with security and privacy, thereby improving the quality of care and reducing costs. Participants also will discuss future initiatives and gain insight into the challenges faced by different agencies and institutions.

"As we look at U.S. government, national and even international needs for health information technology, there are many common elements - as well as areas where there are distinctly different needs," said Dr. Harmon. "Moving forward will require leveraging the areas of commonality while allowing for variation where it is necessary. The types of services now coming online are capable of handling significant customization within agreed-upon standards. They are also capable of supporting very diverse functions in support of the many different users and varying environments in which they operate."

Harris - teamed with partners Agilex Technologies, Inc., and Scenpro, Inc. - was awarded the original development and integration contract for the NHIN CONNECT Solution in March of 2008. The company recently announced the availability of the third release of this open-source software, CONNECT 2.2.

Harris Healthcare Solutions provides enterprise intelligence solutions and services for commercial and government customers, including systems integration, intelligent infrastructure, advanced visualization and display, enterprise digital content management, and IT services solutions. Harris products, systems, and services improve health outcomes by assuring that critical medical information is delivered with security and privacy to the right person, on the right device, at the point of care.
