Quintron Receives Frost Sullivan
Product Innovation of the Year Award
Santa Maria, CA (February 14, 2007) - Quintron, the recognized leader in advanced interoperable voice systems and physical access control/intrusion detection systems, is pleased to announce that it has been selected to receive the 2007 Frost Sullivan North American C4ISR Product Innovation of the Year Award. This award is presented each year to the company that has demonstrated excellence in new products and technologies within their industry.
"Quintron's U.S. DoD market product innovation leadership is demonstrated by their inventive engineering services that provide off-the-shelf and custom solutions to help solve difficult DoD challenges," said Matthew Farr, research analyst at Frost Sullivan. "Quintron adapted its existing DICES IV product architecture into a completely different space launch control application to provide an upgrade from a 1960's technology to a Client-Server IP based Status Alert system. Quintron has helped their industry partners and the DoD save time and money by utilizing open architecture information technology to meet immediate operational needs."
Quintron's mission control, command center, interoperability, and mobile/tactical communications products provide exceptional solutions to U.S. Mil-Aerospace interoperability and legacy upgrade requirements. Quintron's DICES IV Secure Audio Enhancement system provides user access to all audio sources through a single headset, integrating legacy and digital secure telephone connections, personal computer audio, and other Internet Protocol based devices.
The Quintron DICES IV product technology was adapted to provide a generational upgrade for the existing Vandenberg AFB Range Status Alert system under a subcontract to ITT Corporation for the Spacelift Range System Contract (SLRSC). Quintron provided a complete technology upgrade within current net-centric operating environments, while maintaining existing legacy interfaces and operating procedures with minimal additional training requirements. Launch controllers utilize dual touch screen console units, with one screen for status input, and the second screen to provide status display from other operators. Central redundant servers provide system connectivity via standard Ethernet-IP and configuration management for all operator displays. Separate I/O servers accept IP commands and convert them into legacy narrow band audio signals for status communications between the Western Range Operations Control Center (WROCC) and the Vandenberg AFB launch pads.
"It is an honor to receive this award and a testament to the expertise and dedication of our entire team," said David Wilhite, Vice President of Quintron's Telecommunications Systems Division. "Being recognized by a highly-respected independent industry group like Frost Sullivan is clear evidence that DICES technology is an effective and unique solution across many market and customer requirement segments."
