IN-VEHICLE ROUTER BASED SOLUTIONS

WITH REMOTE WORKING A CRITICAL ELEMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY, MOBILE CONNECTIVITY IS VITAL.

Agencies need to ensure their teams have access to the same real-time data and applications on the move, as they do back at base. Accessing this information in vehicles is especially important as it allows first responders to remain connected and productive throughout a shift, while providing full visibility of assets so they can effectively coordinate operations.

IT’S ALL ABOUT INFORMATION FLOW

Vehicle routers keep first responders connected in vehicles so they can access real-time intelligence on the road. They provide a bubble of connectivity around the vehicle that allows a variety of equipment from laptops and tablets to in-vehicle and body-worn cameras to access the Internet. We call this bubble a vehicle area network (VAN) and the connectivity between the VAN and the enterprise network is what makes the crucial flow of information between the field and base possible. For public safety, this information flow can be a lifeline. Mobile connectivity allows frontline teams to transmit and receive data securely in real time – for example video feeds, maps and criminal record databases. When needed they can also coordinate their response with other emergency services. Command can monitor the location and status of assets, access telemetry and see fleet information such as data on driver behavior. This two-way flow of information helps keep responders safe and effective.
