"We continue to expand our 5G footprint globally in support of the larger capacity and faster speeds it provides to end users, supporting innovation in public safety and other businesses."
The group awarded the contract was Comtech’s Trusted Location group, according to the press release. This group works to provide precise device location, mapping and messaging solutions for public safety, mobile network operators, and enterprise solutions.
The company has clients worldwide, according to the press release.
Comtech is headquartered in Melville, New York, and designs, produces and markets its secure wireless solutions to customers in more than 100 countries, according to the release.
