MESH radio gives firefighters a communication lifeline that helps them work together and stay safe. But if LTE coverage is lost, their lifeline back to dispatch could be cut if you haven’t ensured satellite connectivity as a fallback.

Whether you’re fighting wildfires, flooding, or making your way through a burning building – push to talk voice communication is a critical lifeline. MESH radio gives fire crews a self-healing voice and data network. The network consists of nodes carried by each firefighter, with the signal eventually routed back to the fire engine and on to dispatch. The addition of data enables video images to support situational awareness and allows dispatch a real-time overview of each firefighter’s location. But loss of LTE signal in remote locations or due to damage to LTE masts means immediate loss of connection to dispatch and all data capabilities, leaving your firefighters on their own.
