Wireless Leader Names Harris 'Preferred Supplier' for

Digital Microwave Radios

Harris Corporation (NYSE: HRS), a leading global provider of wireless

equipment and services, today announced that Sprint (NYSE: FON), one of the

world's largest providers of wireless communications, has named Harris as its

preferred provider of point-to-point microwave technology. Sprint signed a

four-year agreement to use TRuepoint(TM), Harris' next-generation microwave

radio, as a transport alternative versus leasing wire line facilities in select

markets. Sprint will use TRuepoint, the industry's first universal platform for

point-to-point digital communications in the cellular backhaul market, as the

backbone of its Sprint PCS wireless network in key U.S. markets nationwide.

Sprint selected Harris' Microwave Communications Division to deliver the

technology required to build out its world-class wireless communications

infrastructure to meet exploding demand for new mobile services and directly

reduce its backhaul costs by millions of dollars a year. In addition to its

backhaul application, Sprint may use TRuepoint for a range of additional

services, such as disaster recovery, emergency services and enterprise

connectivity.

"At Sprint, we're completely focused on providing unparalleled capacity and service for our customers," said Bob Azzi, Sprint's vice president of Network

Engineering. "This means we team with suppliers who know how to work closely

with us and will consistently deliver a superior solution for our customers. We

recognized Harris' ability to deliver a total package in the TRuepoint product

which was cost-efficient, scalable and flexible."

Sprint will use Harris' TRuepoint for Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) backhaul and its EV-DO (Evolution Data Only) services, which include both voice and data applications. Deploying TRuepoint to backhaul its service traffic to the broader network enables Sprint to avoid using leased lines (such as T1 or

T3 lines), which have both limited capacity and high cost. TRuepoint allows

Sprint to use a single platform throughout its PCS network, regardless of

application traffic volume. This flexibility and scalability will allow Sprint

to add new services and grow its customer base with limited impact on its

wireless infrastructure. TRuepoint is easy to deploy, with common replacement

parts across the platform, a lower cost to install and a lower total cost of

ownership.

"Sprint is recognized around the world as a wireless leader, so we are

pleased that TRuepoint was chosen to power its advanced mobile network," stated

Jayne Leighton, vice president of North America sales and services, Harris

Microwave Communications Division. "By deploying TRuepoint, Sprint will quickly

benefit by strengthening network capacity and increasing cost-efficiency."

Sprint and Harris have enjoyed a successful relationship on the FAA

Telecommunications Infrastructure (FTI) program. Sprint is a key provider for

long distance connectivity, and also provides specific multiplexing and routing

equipment supporting the objectives of the 5000 site communications program.
