JITC is an entity of the US Department of Defense - DoD under the Defense Information Systems Agency – DISA. JITC evaluated the technological requirements of all DoD agencies and organizations, and then developed tests that pertain to the multiple branches of the armed services and government. The organization is responsible for planning and conducting these operational tests, reporting results, and providing an evaluation of each unit’s operational effectiveness, suitability, interoperability, and security. JITC also issues the certification letter that allows a product to be listed on the UC APL.

JITC certification is a rigorous process, which includes stringent Interoperability – IO and Information Assurance – IA testing in accordance with the DoD Unified Capabilities Requirements - UCR. For certification purposes, Extron products are tested and approved under JITC’s Video Distribution System category, and Extron has the most extensive offering of AV products on the UC APL.
