ENGINEERED CONNECTIVITY SM Up to Now Voice rules Legacy but reliable deployments No data (or minimal) Market dominance –Motorola –M/A-COM Has suited needs well and will continue to in some form

ENGINEERED CONNECTIVITY SM The Big Issue Apps Robust Wireless MISSING LINK AVL Meter reading Parking enforcement Dispatch GIS / Mapping Property appraiser Code enforcement Video surveillance 1 st responders VoWiFi Mug shots Broadband Events Amber Alerts E-justice Sensors Freight

ENGINEERED CONNECTIVITY SM The “Regular” Chart We NEED data! Today Capabilities Existing Technology Time User/App Demand Demand

ENGINEERED CONNECTIVITY SM Today’s Data Reality Hodge-podge of network types Legacy voice-centric Store and forward / synchronize technology Lack of tracking capabilities Mobile office and roaming not realistic Cellular Wi-Fi Hot Spots (some) REALITY –Not enough bandwidth –Text-based vs. mobile office
