RCC Consultants Launches Broadband-Focused Group to Provide Dedicated Broadband Support to Mission Critical Organizations

Company Representative March 6, 2012 Product & Service Announcements

Woodbridge, NJ (February 21, 2012) – A leader in broadband consulting services and a driving force among broadband standards-setting organizations, RCC Consultants, Inc. has recognized the need for a dedicated practice to support our clients with evolving broadband technologies.

We are pleased to announce the launch of our new Broadband Consulting Group.
RCC’s Broadband Consulting Group brings together the company’s business, engineering,
program management, legal and spectrum experts, who will assist agencies and organizations in
developing plans for and implementing this new technology.

RCC is currently assisting Charlotte, N.C. with the plan, design and launch of the first hostedcore solution in the country, developed with Broadband Technology Opportunity Program
(BTOP) grant funding. RCC is also helping the West Virginia Statewide Interoperability
Executive Committee to develop a plan and strategy to deploy a broadband infrastructure over
the 700 MHz spectrum for an interoperable public safety wireless broadband network for the
State of West Virginia.

Both of these networks will provide mobile wireless broadband access to public safety entities,
enabling them to stream live video from the field, download critical maps and files and generally
enhance interoperability of data sharing among government agencies.

“The rapidly changing broadband technology will alter the way agencies operate and that can be
confusing for them,” said RCC President and CEO Michael W. Hunter. “With 29 years of
communications-related experience and a year of broadband consulting expertise – more than
most in the industry – RCC can help our clients clear up the confusion. Our Broadband
Consulting Group can help them develop a robust broadband roadmap, system procurement and
implementation that meets their needs, today and tomorrow.”

RCC is also expanding our ComSite software suite to support LTE systems. Our new
ComSiteLTE product will provide LTE system coverage and capacity design, as well as multiple
modules to analyze mission critical operational scenarios based upon each agency’s unique
applications and user devices. This information can be used to plan LTE system design, priority
mapping, migration from LMR networks and more. But uniquely it will address LTE systems
from the special requirements perspective of mission critical agencies, whose use cases differ
greatly from public carriers.

For more information, please visit our website at www.rcc.com. Members of RCC’s Broadband
Consulting Group will be on-hand at the International Wireless Communications Expo (IWCE)
February 22-23 in booth #7102 and would welcome the opportunity to discuss the Group.
