Mutualink and IP Access International have partnered to jointly offer a new emergency communications service intended to help customers meet public safety and critical infrastructure mission requirements.
The offering was developed as a collaboration tool for agencies, their partners and critical infrastructure organizations during disasters via voice, video and data communications, Mutualink said Monday.
Mutualink combines its IRAPP network with IP Access“™ broadband satellite service in order to help agencies communicate with partners.
Mark Hatten, CEO of Mutualink, said the company intends for the service to help address “the nation“™s long unsolved and persistent problem of the lack of interoperability between first responders as well as the community of critical infrastructure entities.“
IRAPP uses peer-based architecture for agencies to collaborate.
