Commtact’s latest solution provides complete situational awareness for any scenario, and enables real-time, continuous communication between personnel in the field and the platforms they use.

Commtact Ltd., an Israeli provider of advanced wireless communications solutions for first responder teams and robotics platforms, unveils CommNet -- a new real-time communications network solution for first responders, large events and command & control center teams.

Being the first on the scene of catastrophes and natural disasters, first responders experience a growing need for an independent, reliable, real-time mobile communications network that facilitates data sharing alongside constant situational awareness. According to Commtact, CommNet provides exactly this.

Based on Commtact's proven operational performance, the new system enhances real-time situational awareness in a variety of missions, supporting ongoing real-time communications between multiple users operating diverse platforms. Even with a large number of users, the system provides consistently high quality of service (QoS).

Incorporating high-performance software-defined radios (SDRs) within ruggedized body-worn components, the solution provides reliable, low-latency video, voice and data connectivity. It ensures consistently high QoS for large numbers of end users, including first responder teams and rugged multi-domain platforms.

The company says that, leveraging proprietary wireless technologies, the system supports point-to-point (PTP), point-to-multi point (PTMP) and MESH topologies and a wide range of radio frequencies and channel width, while delivering high throughput over a secure private network.
