CC tonight at 5:00 Eagle Broadband Receives FCC & Iridium Certifications for Breakthrough Orb'Phone Exchange Satellite Communications Platform Thursday October 23, 2:26 pm ET Dual Certifications Pave Way for Company to Commence Volume Shipments of Exclusive Technology That Enables Truly Global, Satellite-Based Voice & Data Communications Services LEAGUE CITY, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 23, 2003-- Eagle Broadband, Inc. (AMEX:EAG - News), a leading provider of broadband and communications products, services and content, announced today that the company has received certification by both the Federal Communications Commission (FCC Certification Identifier # LOKJHJLBT05A00021) and Iridium Satellite LLC for its breakthrough Orb'Phone Exchange non-line-of-sight, satellite-based communications platform. ADVERTISEMENT Exclusive New Capabilities & Benefits The Orb'Phone Exchange is the first and only non-line-of-sight communications technology that enables users of the Iridium® satellite network to quickly and easily establish highly reliable voice and data communications to and from any location where the user is unable to gain line of sight to an orbiting Iridium Satellite such as on board in-flight aircraft, within buildings, under ground or from obstructed areas. The technology enables truly global communications that enhance user productivity, mobility, problem solving, field-to-headquarters collaboration and emergency backup/response for a wide range of mission-critical and everyday communications needs. By extending coverage indoors to areas not traditionally served by satellite networks, the Orb'Phone Exchange extends customers' usage area, while enhancing the utility and overall value for both new and existing Iridium aviation, government, military, homeland security and commercial/enterprise customers. With the ability to work with both new and existing Iridium handsets and with well over 500,000 potential sites/locations for the Exchange (i.e. aircraft, ships, mobile field locations, corporate sites, etc.), the Orb'Phone Exchange represents a multi-billion dollar market opportunity for Eagle Broadband. Major Company Milestone The certifications followed strenuous testing of the system's capabilities, performance, reliability and effect on the Iridium Satellite Network. "Achieving both Iridium and FCC certifications is a major milestone for Eagle Broadband, allowing the company to deliver an entirely new class of higher quality voice and data communications applications and services to and from anywhere on Earth," said Dave Weisman, CEO of Eagle Broadband. "Eagle's Exchange development team has done a terrific job overcoming significant technical challenges and has delivered a truly innovative communications technology. Having met the stringent performance and quality standards required by these demanding certification processes means customers can immediately start benefiting from the enhanced voice and data communications now possible with the Orb'Phone Exchange," Weisman added. Immediate Availability for Customers "Iridium's customers and reseller partners have expressed strong interest in being able to use the Iridium network to communicate in non-line-of-sight applications," said Gino Picasso, president of Global Marketing and Sales for Iridium Satellite LLC. "We have been very impressed with the technology leadership Eagle Broadband has demonstrated in developing the Orb'Phone Exchange and in achieving both Iridium and FCC certification. We look forward to working with Eagle to make the platform immediately available to Iridium's sales channel partners and offer the enhanced services and coverage made possible by the Orb'Phone Exchange to customers in all of our markets," Picasso added.
