Introducing Reliable Communication for Public Safety: Is Your Agency Prepared?
In critical situations, reliable communication can mean the difference between success and failure. Public safety agencies often face challenges that require immediate and dependable connectivity, especially in areas where traditional networks fall short. Is your agency prepared to overcome these communication hurdles?Ā
Discover how IP Access Internationalās private wireless solutions can empower your team with robust, flexible, and cost-effective connectivity, ensuring you are always ready to respond effectively, no matter the circumstance.
Understanding Private Wireless Networks
What are Private Wireless Networks?
Private wireless networks are dedicated communication systems that utilize LTE (Long-Term Evolution) and 4G/5G technologies to create secure, reliable, and high-performance connectivity. Unlike public networks provided by carriers like Verizon or AT&T, private wireless networks are owned and managed by the organizations that use them. This ownership gives organizations full control over the network, including who can access it and how it is configured.
Leveraging LTE and 4G/5G Technologies
LTE (Long-Term Evolution): LTE provides high-speed data transfer and reliable communication. It’s a standard for wireless broadband communication that significantly improves the speed and capacity of data networks.
4G/5G Technologies: 4G offers enhanced mobile broadband, while 5G takes it further by offering ultra-reliable low latency communication and massive machine-type communication. These advancements make private wireless networks suitable for a variety of applications, including IoT and critical communications.
Challenges Faced by Public Safety Customers
1. Coverage in Remote or Rural Areas
Challenge: Public safety agencies often operate in remote or rural areas where commercial LTE coverage is either weak or nonexistent. This can be a significant obstacle during emergencies when reliable communication is crucial.
Solution: Deploying a private wireless network using a comms-on-the-pause solution allows agencies to set up a dedicated LTE or 5G network quickly. By equipping a vehicle with a kit that includes preloaded agency devices, agencies can create a reliable communication network on-site. Additional devices can be easily added by scanning a QR code that provides eSIM authorization, ensuring seamless integration and communication. This network can be managed locally, providing full control and ensuring connectivity regardless of the presence of traditional carriers.
2. Seamless Coverage in Known LTE Dead Zones
Challenge: Certain areas might be known for their lack of LTE coverage, posing a challenge for continuous communication, especially for mobile units.
Solution: A private LTE (CBRS) network can be permanently deployed in these areas. For example, any agency vehicle equipped with a Dejero GateWay 211 device (with a Celona SIM) can move around without losing connectivity. The system automatically switches from commercial carriers to the CBRS network when entering the no LTE zone, maintaining uninterrupted communication. This deployment requires a local backhaul solution, such as fiber or satellite, to ensure constant connectivity.
3. Quick Deployment and Compatibility
Challenge: During emergencies, the ability to quickly deploy a reliable communication network is essential. Additionally, using specialized devices or software can be costly and cumbersome.
Solution: Our private wireless solution supports quick deployment of an LTE or 5G network when commercial LTE is unavailable. ThisĀ ad hoc networkĀ can be set up quickly at any location, providing immediate communication capabilities. The solution works seamlessly with current Apple and Android phones without the need for additional software, making it a cost-effective bring-your-own-device model. This ensures that agencies can use their existing devices, reducing costs and simplifying the deployment process. Additionally, the network is ideal for IoT devices that need to communicate behind the scenes, ensuring all operational aspects are covered.
