DULUTH, Ga., Nov. 21 /PRNewswire/ -- DataPath, Inc., a leading provider of
satellite and wireless communications networks around the world, was awarded
$4.8 million to continue providing on-site personnel to operate and maintain
U.S. Army satellite communications (SATCOM) systems. This award provides 12
months of funding for DataPath(R) technical personnel based in various
locations in the United States. These personnel support Satellite
Transportable Terminals (STTs), Master Reference Terminals (MRTs) and Unit Hub
SATCOM Trucks (UHSTs) used in the U.S. Army's Joint Network Node
(JNN)/Warfighter Information Network-Tactical (WIN-T) program.
"This award funds personnel that support JNN/WIN-T terminals that were
used on the battlefield and are being serviced and redeployed," said Steve
Lindeman, vice president of Business Operations at DataPath. "This line of
SATCOM terminals has proven to be rugged and reliable in the harshest
conditions. DataPath on-site technical experts have been a key to that
successful performance since the terminals were first deployed."

the world. The majority of them work with the U.S. military in more than 60
