· Increased range up to 20km*
· Secure wireless hotspot for emergency personnel
Description
Wireless communications for voice, data and video is essential for any rapid response team. Advances in commercial wireless standards offer the right level of security, bandwidth and applications to meet these needs, but how to access these services when at an incident scene? The Emergency Wireless Access Backhaul (eWAB) uses a multi-beam antenna to extend the range and throughput of a mobile data link such as 3G. Instead of providing data to one device, the eWAB improves both the speed and range to allow multiple devices to share the connection through a dedicated wireless local area network (WLAN) hots pot. When deployed at an incident scene, the eWAB scans its beams and selects the link offering the best data connection into the existing mobile network. The eWAB then switches on the wireless LAN for access by emergency personnel. Two-way data communications with the network uses the established connection while the eWAB automatically maintains the link quality. Mobile Incident Command & Control Centre Secure WLAN (Hotspot)
