Business Wire
New World Brands, Inc. (OTCBB:NWBD) announced today that its
TELES USA Division, in cooperation with Jackson State University,
conducted the first public demonstration of its newly fielded
Transmission Alternatives Link Kit, or �TALK Box.� A combination of
time-tested, proven TELES components, the TALK Box was developed
for the US Department of Homeland Security�s Center of Excellence
at Jackson State University (JSU).
The TALK Box allows police, fire, and other first responders to
quickly re-establish robust telephone and data communications in
the event of severe weather or other catastrophic events. TELES USA
partner Bandtel, The Global Leader is Pure SIP Trunking, provided
VoIP services during the event, connecting the TALK Box to the
world. These capabilities, previously beyond the reach of most
rural counties and municipalities, will now be available at prices
for even modest budgets. TELES USA�s premier systems integration
partner in the region, SBC Instrument & Control, provided
support.
Dr. Robert Whalin, Ph.D., Director of the Department of Homeland
Security Center for Natural Disasters, Coastal Infrastructure, and
Emergency Management at JSU, declared the TELES TALK Box
demonstration an �unqualified success. TELES USA has shown they can
bring much-needed capabilities to the residents of Mississippi and
the Nation.�
Lead Researcher, Dr. Gordon Skelton, Ph.D., agreed, touting the
cooperation between TELES USA, Jackson State University, and the US
Army�s Redstone Army Arsenal. �We�ve clearly demonstrated today the
value of collaboration between the academic, military, and
corporate community in providing solutions that bridge communities,
save money, and save lives. We�re very excited about continuing to
work with TELES USA in developing advanced telecommunications
solutions for Homeland Security and Disaster Preparedness.�
