Harris Corp. (HRS)
unveils Internet Protocol-based, air traffic control (ATC) voice
communications system capable of supporting 1 to 800-plus
controller positions.
The new ATC system, which has been
deployed in more than 50 countries, allows Voice over Internet
Protocol (VoIP) system via Harris’ VCS21 technology. Consequently,
the introduction of ATC system will gradually sideline the existing
Time-Division Multiplexing communications hardware with
standards-based, VoIP-enabled voice nodes.
VCS21 technology supporting the
U.S. NextGen and Single European Sky ATM Research features and
functions, fully integrates ATC voice functions and other
protocols, thereby offering complete voice solution as per industry
standards.
In 2012, Harris received a 15-year
deal worth $291 million from Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
The huge contract will use the company’s VCS21 technology, thereby
controlling growing network traffic by offering secure, digital
communications for pilots, controllers and ground personnel.
Harris currently carries a Zacks
Rank #3 (Hold).
