Fortress Technologies, the leader in secure tactical wireless communications, today announced two new solutions to its product portfolio that enable secure, net-centric wireless communications via land, air, and sea. The Fortress ES820 Vehicle Mesh Point and Fortress FastPath Mesh(TM) allow vehicles to dynamically create ad hoc mesh networks on-the-move, and seamlessly leave and rejoin those networks during tactical missions.
"Vehicles within a convoy often have difficulty communicating with each other in areas with little or no established infrastructure," said Janet Kumpu, President, Fortress. "Fortress' ES820 Vehicle Mesh Point and FastPath Mesh solve this challenge. Providing robust vehicle communications with Fortress' ES820 -- combined with FastPath Mesh to create and enhance the mobile mesh network -- the Department of Defense can bring reliable secure wireless communications to its vehicle units."
With industry-leading radio range, the Fortress ES820 Vehicle Mesh Point is a self-forming, self-healing wireless network device delivered in a small and rugged form factor -- its size, weight, and power are specifically tailored for vehicle use. Fortress' FastPath Mesh allows distributed assets -- such as convoys, command posts, UAVs, and soldiers -- to connect to an organic, ad hoc network that enables end points to join and exit the network seamlessly.
Fortress is showcasing these new solutions at LandWarNet on August 19, 2009 at 11:30am. Located at the Greater Ft. Lauderdale/Broward County Convention Center in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, the company is also announcing four other new products during the show.
