Cisco US Incorporates Etherstack LTE Smartphone Technology
Cisco (NASDAQ:CSCO) today announced a range of new interoperable communications capabilities for their public safety, enterprise, utilities and transportation offerings that incorporate Etherstack's LTE25 smartphone technology.
The Cisco and Etherstack solution allows secure push-to-talk style operation between 3G and 4G handset devices and government radio systems such as those used by police, fire, ambulance and other government agencies. The offering also provides a similar capability to the utility, transportation and mining sectors.
Cisco and Etherstack have been collaborating on standards based interoperability solutions since 2008 which has recently seen the initial deployments of Cisco's new IPICS (IP Interoperability and Collaboration System) product incorporating Etherstack's wireless interfacing technology to various government agencies in the United States, Australia and New Zealand.
