Since severe storms, fires, earthquakes, floods, and other natural disasters are likely to disrupt ground-based connections—including cell phone towers—emergency response teams must quickly and easily bring internet connectivity and telephone service back. Through the deployment of a mobile generator and satellite terminal, first responders can connect to low-latency, Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites that deliver consistent, enterprise-grade broadband connectivity everywhere, supporting rescue and recovery, supply management, and medical triage. Expand the coverage with advanced, secure Open RAN 5G networking to respond effectively in the first 24 hours of the response—the most vital and chaotic time.
Learning Objectives:
Attendees will learn how LEO satellites are supporting emergency responders today in remote, disconnected locations, providing dedicated, enterprise level service.
Attendees will see how O-RAN 5G is serving disconnected technicians with secure, broadband connectivity when they need to repair and maintain aircraft for critical, time-constrained missions.
