"The Mobile Gateway from Spartan Emergency Response enhances safety, productivity and information access for firefighters," said Dan Slater, President of Spartan Emergency Response. "The unfortunate increase of natural disasters, and the homeland threats throughout the world, illustrates the criticality of communications infrastructure and the negative impact when it breaks down. While not every apparatus in a fleet needs to be equipped with the Mobile Gateway, maintaining 100% connectivity on a sub-set of apparatus in the fleet is vital. We are excited about the market's reaction to this product since it was launched in December (2014)."
After the devastating impact of Hurricane Sandy, it became remarkably clear that maintaining communication was more important than ever for first responders. Soon after Hurricane Sandy made landfall, communications for many first responders became inoperable with over 25% of the local cell towers disabled. Cell towers were overloaded following the tragedy at the 2013 Boston Marathon, which was a considerable problem for first responders. With the Mobile Gateway from Spartan Emergency Response, the challenges associated with a compromised communications grid become much less severe.
The Mobile Gateway boasts a maximum cellular range of up to 25 miles, providing it a better chance of finding an active cell tower, even within a disaster zone. The device can help detect and avoid overloaded cell towers and connect as needed even if the tower is farther away with minimal drop in connectivity speed. The Wi-Fi range of the Mobile Gateway is exceptional, allowing devices to connect up to 1,500 feet away. Even if a firefighter is on scene and away from the truck, they can still connect with and share information as needed.
To ensure that the internet connection is as stable as possible, the Mobile Gateway also supports a number of failover methods. When equipped with multiple cellular cards, the Mobile Gateway can switch from one access point to the other (e.g., with two cellular cards in operation, the system will cut over as needed to ensure continuity of access). Also, the device can failover from a 4G to 3G connection when the vehicle moves into an area with a weak 4G presence. Finally, the system is equipped to offer a satellite receiver*, allowing a satellite connection if the cellular connection fails - providing 100% continuous connectivity.
Additionally, this system can serve as the gateway architecture providing access to a number of additional features including wireless pump control, remote troubleshooting, smart device vehicle checklists, fleet management and other prognostics/diagnostics capabilities.
