U.S. Department of Homeland Security Approves EF Johnson Technologies, Inc.’s Lab for Testing Emergency
Responder Radios
Irving, TX – May 12, 2009 – EF Johnson Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: EFJI) announced today that the
U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has formally approved the company’s engineering lab to test emergency
responder radios for standards compliance. This approval is part of the DHS’ Project 25 Compliance Assessment
Program, which will provide more than 60,000 emergency response agencies nationwide with a consistent and
traceable method to gather P25 compliance information on the products they buy.
“Our engineering lab demonstrated its competence by completing a rigorous and objective assessment process based
on internationally accepted standards,” said Michael Jalbert, president and chief executive officer of EF Johnson
Technologies, Inc. “We are now qualified by the DHS to assess interoperability. Our products have passed
interoperability tests at government facilities, in independent test labs, and even in the labs of our biggest
competitor. First responders can now have even greater confidence in our Project 25 compliant solutions such as
our award-winning ES Series radios with the Enhanced (AMBE+2) Project 25 Vocoder, or our innovative Trunked IP25
and Conventional IP25 infrastructure systems.”
“Recognized labs are essential to the success of the P25
CAP program,” said Dr. David Boyd, Director of the Command, Control and Interoperability Division within the DHS
Science and Technology Directorate. “Until now, emergency response agencies have purchased and used equipment
developed by disparate manufacturers. Often operating on different spectra, this equipment prevented interoperable
communications when responding to critical incidents. P25 CAP will, for the first time, allow the emergency
response community to be confident that the equipment they purchase is, in fact, interoperable.”
About the P25 Compliance Assessment Program (CAP)
Managed in partnership with the National Institute
of Standards and Technology’s Office of Law Enforcement Standards and a coalition of emergency responders and
communications equipment manufacturers, the P25 CAP establishes an independent compliance assessment process to
ensure communications equipment interoperates, conforms to P25 standards, and meets performance requirements. P25
standards allow radios to interoperate regardless of manufacturer, thereby enabling emergency responders to
communicate as necessary.

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling
2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed
formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit
design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at
the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps
while tying up your telephone line, and a nice lady's voice announced "You've Got
Mail" when a new message arrived...
