Mission-critical communication systems
We make complex mobile communications systems that work
What We Do
We design, manufacture and supply mobile data, job despatch, vehicle location, data collection, and vehicle telemetry systems for the Emergency Services, Public Transport Public Utility sectors and the military.
Our customers include Police, Fire, Ambulance, state and municipal transportation systems, railways, gas, electricity, water companies and organisers of the Olympic Games.
We provide world-class solutions for resource location, fleet management and dispatch of resources for business-critical and mission critical users and applications.
In the UK and Ireland half of all ambulances have our systems installed.
Designed for wireless
Our solutions are “designed for wireless” for the ground up – this means that they deliver robust and reliable communications even in marginal radio coverage and continue to operate where other solutions fail.
We have over 20 years’ experience in making things work where other solutions can’t – we do this by using a range of techniques that include:
- Careful and considered solution design
- Data compression
- Data encryption
- Highly optimised data transmission protocols
- Transmitting the information that’s needed
- Implementing robust and reliable communications protocols to ensure that your message gets through.
