But as part of its "Sideline of the Future" project, the NFL is ready to move forward with a VOIP (voice over Internet protocol) system it developed with help from two vendors over a four-year period. In simpler terms, the league will own a private encrypted mobile communication system and operate on an exclusive frequency it acquired from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). It will face no interference because no other product can share its frequency.

You just know somebody is going to create something to fuck with that frequency. They'll find it eventually.

I'm pretty sure licensed frequencies is publicly available information. Unless I'm missing something, it seems like they've helped secure the communication from outsiders by encrypting the data but they haven't prevented anyone from causing interference on the same frequency. Of course, I'm no expert on wireless comms.
