Re: APPLICATION NUMBER HERE Request for Confidential Treatment of
Material Filed

FILED ELECTRONICALLY

Dear Ms. Dortch:

     Cisco Systems, Inc. (hereinafter “Cisco”)Per section 0.459 of the Commission’s rules,
this letter requests confidential treatment of material filed in support of the above-
referenced application. Cisco submits the following in conformance with the
requirements of section 0.459(b) of the Commission’s rules:

   1. Identification of the specific information for which confidential treatment is
      sought.
         • Description of vehicle and radio equipment

   2. Identification of the Commission proceeding in which the information was
      submitted.
         • OET Experimental License Application File


   3. Explanation of the degree to which the information concerns a service that is
      subject to competition.
         • Cisco concern is that the mobile emergency communication vehicle may
              be construed as a product.

   4. Explanation for how disclosure of the information could result in substantial
      competitive harm.
         • The information contained in the document presents information about a
            conceptual product that is being evaluated for possible commercial
            development. If competitors were to have access to this document, they
            would have knowledge of Cisco’s pending business plans as far as radio
            support or product development , and would be able to use this advance
            knowledge to their advantage. This could result in substantial competitive
            harm to Cisco’s ability to bring product to market, should that decision be
            made.


5. Identification of any measures taken by the submitting party to prevent
   unauthorized disclosure.
      • Information about Cisco’s products under development including
           engineering development or demonstration tools is considered by the
           company to be commercially sensitive information that employees are not
           permitted to discuss outside the company.

6. Identification of whether the information is available to the public and the extent
   of any previous disclosure of information to third parties.
       • Information about product development is not routinely provided to the
           public, and is not available on Cisco’s web site. No information about this
           product has been disclosed.

7. Justification of the period during which the submitting party asserts that material
   should not be available for public disclosure.
       • Cisco requests that the above-identified material not be disclosed for 1
           year. This period should provide sufficient time for Cisco to make its
           evaluation of the product.

       •   .

                                                         Sincerely,



                                                         David Case
