SkyPort Global Communications is participating in the Coalition Warrior Interoperability Demonstration (CWID), June 9th thorugh the 19th, at the Naval Surface Warfare Center in Dahlgren, Virginia, and the Kelly Barracks in Stuttgart, Germany. CWID is a Joint Chiefs of Staff-directed annual event that engages cutting-edge information technology focused on criteria defined by combatant commanders. Technologies are approved for participation as they address a new information sharing capability, or might improve an existing capability, in support of articulated demonstration objectives. Information sharing technologies leverage decision-making and operational flexibility on the battlefield and during crisis response on the home front. The demonstration evaluates technologies and capabilities for exchanging information among coalition partners, military services, government agencies, first responders and U.S. combatant commanders, especially this year’s host, U.S. European Command (USEUCOM). SkyPort Global will be demonstrating how military and government agencies can leverage the global commercial X-band communications network for domestic training, disaster relief, and for directly supporting the Warfighter. Using current Ku- and/or C-band, SkyPort Global will illustrate their capability in bridging currently deployed fixed and COTM network services to X-band networks through their secure teleport located in Houston, Texas.
