How LMR, LTE, and 5G Are Redefining Mission-Critical Communications Modern public safety and enterprise networks are no longer defined by a single technology, with land mobile radio (LMR), LTE, and 5G now operating side by side. Together they form a communications framework built to outlast any one platform. The National Public Safety Telecommunications Council has
Emergency Networks and Climate Resilience: Preparing for the Next Wave of Natural Disasters In 2024 alone, 27 separate weather events each caused more than a billion dollars in damage and every year, hurricanes reach farther inland and severe storms form with little warning. Each event tests the systems that public safety and infrastructure teams depend
Why Nationwide Dispatch is a Game-Changer for Tower Operators Service quality depends on more than equipment, as it’s more about how quickly teams can be mobilized and how consistently they can reach sites across the country. With more than 240 million calls placed to 911 every year, delays in tower servicing put both operators and
How Advanced DAS Monitoring Improves Network Health and Performance Beyond Alarms A Distributed Antenna System (DAS) keeps communication flowing in hospitals, airports, corporate campuses, and public safety networks. However, not all DAS monitoring is created equal. With over 80% of mobile traffic happening indoors, many networks suffer from disruptions and network congestion. Many DAS still
Spectrum Monitoring Setup: SAM–NAM Calibration Calibrating a SAM or NAM sweep is the only way to tie measurement to reality. Every value that follows, from the noise floor to the site’s interference profile, starts with a calibration signal and a properly adjusted offset. The sweep data is only as useful as the setup behind it.
How Emergency Broadcast Systems Stay Online When Everything Else Fails Since 1963, many Americans grew up with a television or radio broadcast being interrupted every week by the Emergency Broadcast System (EBS) or the Emergency Alert System (EAS). The same could be said for Canadians who have had their Alert Ready system since 2015, as
How TX RX Supports Full-Spectrum Disaster Response In times of disaster, whether natural or manmade, communication networks serve as the lifeblood of emergency response efforts, as first responders require reliable, clear, and instantaneous communication to prevent chaos. TX RX Systems supports and provides the necessary infrastructure needed during such moments. Our equipment lineup, including antennas,
How DAS Monitoring Works Whether we know it or not, we encounter distributed antenna systems (DAS) every day; in office buildings, hospitals, and stadiums. Levi’s Stadium alone operates over 700 DAS antennas to ensure 70,000 spectators stay connected. There are many different factors to take into account to guarantee consistent performance. Not only do these
The Role of DAS Monitoring for Rapid Deployments in Disaster Zones Disasters destroy infrastructure and disrupt communication; they leave emergency teams struggling to stay connected. But when hurricanes, wildfires, and earthquakes hit; networks fail. Cell towers collapse. Power lines go down. Public networks overload as thousands try to reach loved ones. Without a way to
Restoring Emergency Communication in 72 Hours: Rapid Deployment When It Matters Most The first 72 hours after a disaster determine whether emergency teams can take control or struggle through confusion and delays. When infrastructure fails, response efforts become much harder to manage. Power lines collapse. Fiber optic networks are severed. Cellular towers go offline. First
