ROMSEY, England, March 30, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --
See SmartLinkā¢
at B-APCO, 31 March - 1 April,
Stand B28
At this year's B-APCO event, Chemring Technology Solutions, a
developer of world-class communications solutions, will be
demonstrating SmartLink[TM], a
highly-portable cellular network in-a-box with a proven 5km
range.
When the local commercial cellular infrastructure fails,
SmartLinkā¢ can be deployed in less than three minutes. It delivers
a self-contained, secure communications network to share voice,
data and video information between emergency services and public
safety teams, both on the ground and in command centres. This
improves team collaboration and situational awareness, resulting in
more effective incident management.
SmartLink's small form factor, long range and low power
consumption is unrivalled in the market, and it has been
successfully trialled by organisations in the UK and overseas.
Will Tucker, Product Leader at
Chemring Technology Solutions, said: "As the emergency services
increasingly use cellular communications, some fear that sharing
the airwaves with the general public may lead to service blackouts
during major incidents - when they are needed most. SmartLink
offers a step-change in communications capability."
"SmartLink will continue to deliver real time information to
those on the ground, when all other communications systems fail.
Even in the most remote locations, users have access to all the
features of a standard cellular network to maximum collaboration
and safety," concluded Tucker.
A recent white paper entitled 'Future Emergency Service
Communications - Overcoming the Limitations of Land Mobile Radio
systems' that reviews the current communications situation for
emergency services and public safety personnel, is available at
