BETHESDA, Md., June 10 (UPI) -- Citrix Systems Inc. has partnered with TeleCommunication Systems to support the satellite communication capabilities of the U.S. Army.
U.S. company Citrix was selected to integrate its WANScaler technologies into TCS's SNAP Network Packages to accelerate application delivery. The SNAP, or Secure Internet Protocol Router Non-secure Internet Protocol Router Access Point, program supports Army operations in Afghanistan and Iraq.
The Citrix-TCS partnership is funded through the Army Project Manager for the Warfighter Information Network-Tactical Commercial Satellite Terminal Program.
"With the help of Citrix and TCS, the Army can make better use of existing infrastructure, eliminating the need to build more satellites to improve front line communications -- and that saves billions of taxpayer dollars," Tom Simmons, Citrix area vice president for Government Systems, said in a statement.
"More importantly, these improvements will result in faster communication for combat teams, meaning our troops on the ground will have better access to the information they need for mission success."
