TANDBERG, a provider of telepresence, high-definition video conferencing and mobile video solutions, has reportedly received Joint Interoperability Test Command (JITC) certification from the Federal government. With this certification, the company is said to have become the only video teleconferencing provider with total solution certification including endpoints, infrastructure and management platform.

 

JITC has been conducting test, evaluation, and certification services of the national security systems and information technology systems for acquiring and deploying global "net-centric" military capabilities.

 

As per this current certification, the company mentioned that its complete MPS infrastructure and MXP endpoint portfolios have been recertified. In addition, the TANDBERG Management Suite (TMS) has now been certified, making it the only management platform for video to receive JITC certification.

 

With endpoints, infrastructure and now a management platform certified, the Department of Defense (DoD) can purchase a total JITC-certified solution only from TANDBERG.

 

The Department of Defense is directed to purchase video products from an Approved Product List (APL), and JITC certification provides product access to the APL. There are two APLs guiding purchases of video teleconferencing, the DSN APL and the IPv6 APL. TANDBERG certification encompasses both of these APLs.

 

"At TANDBERG, we take pride in our long-standing support of the United States Government," said Joel Brunson, president, TANDBERG Public Sector.

 

"We will continue to comply with standards and testing requirements to ensure that we are always providing the DoD with the highest-quality and most secure video solutions available,” said Brunson.

 

Brunson also mentioned that with this current JITC certification of the company’s management platform along with endpoints and infrastructure, TANDBERG will be well-equipped to support the great demand in the defense community for scalable, manageable and secure video teleconferencing.
