Communicating in the Field
EADS radio communication solutions can make field work more efficient and even save lives.
For example, using voice communications, fire and rescue services can:
-
Use group communication to share information
-
Use direct mode communication to stay in touch outside network coverage
-
Use the radio like a mobile phone
Data brings added efficiency
Data communication makes it possible to:
-
Replace routine voice calls with a standard message
-
Send and receive addresses and other important information as text
-
Access information from databases while on the move. This can include information on hazardous substances or the plans of a building.
Working together with other organisations
In the past, each emergency service would have its own network. This did not help during operations which required co-operation from different agencies.
Digital networks allow different authorities to communicate with each other. This promotes closer co-operation, improves efficiency, and can save lives.
