QUALCOMM, in partnership with the San Diego Regional Network on Homeland Security (RNHS) and other technology companies, assisted the San Diego Police Department (SDPD) with security preparations for Super Bowl XXXVII by providing technology and products based on CDMA technology. QUALCOMM provided wireless phones capable of carrying government- classified information over commercial cellular networks to federal law enforcement agencies and federal task force entities. These phones, referred to as the Qsec-800(R), are National Security Agency certified cellular phones developed through a U.S. Government contract with QUALCOMM. The phones represent a first step in securing the nation's cellular communications using the extensive CDMA network that is commercially available. In addition to the secure wireless handsets, QUALCOMM had worked out an architecture that allowed the SDPD to access data, such as real time video as supplied by cameras, using digital technology from cVideo, at QUALCOMM Stadium, over commercial CDMA2000 1X networks. QUALCOMM's expertise in security ensured these data capabilities met the high standards set by the United States Department of Justice and local law enforcement. ... http://finance.lycos.com/home/news/story.asp?story=31220472 --- end forwarded text -- ----------------- R.
