ANNAPOLIS, Md., July 18, 2012 /PRNewswire/-- TeleCommunication Systems, Inc. (TCS) (NASDAQ: TSYS), a world leader in highly reliable and secure mobile communication technology, today announced that its TCS OS-IRIS and Impact IP terminal solutions have received the 2011 Satellite Spotlight Product of the Year Award from TMC, a media company focused on communication technology.
TCS OS-IRIS allows organizations to directly connect sites on multiple continents, eliminating latency inherent with double satellite hops and bypassing the otherwise-required connection to a commercial teleport. The TCS OS-IRIS solution enables voice, data and video traffic over a single IP network, increasing efficiency and flexibility. Customers benefit from increased bandwidth availability, optimization tools and application flexibility delivered by TCS through an end-to-end Cisco enabled secure IP network.
The TCS Impact Executive IP Terminal and the TCS Impact Tactical IP Terminal are the smallest communications kits currently available in the TCS Impact line of products. Their routing capability is powered by the latest offering in Cisco's line of small, environmentally hardened routers, and possesses local computing capability via the integrated Core 2 Duo based single board computer.
"Both TCS OS-IRIS and our Impact family of IP terminals highlight the leading-edge communication solutions TCS offers to our customers," said Mike Bristol, senior vice president and general manager of the government solutions group at TCS. "We are honored that TMC recognizes this with these awards."
"Satellite Spotlight is pleased to grant a 2011 Product of the Year Award to TCS for their TCS OS-IRIS and Impact family solutions. TCS has proven their commitment to quality and excellence, while addressing real needs in the marketplace," said Rich Tehrani, CEO, TMC. "We're proud to honor their accomplishments in the advancement of the satellite technology industry."
