Disaster Response
Maximize Communications Options - Minimize Space Usage
Proxicast's LAN-Cell 3G/4G cellular router
is an ideal addition to your emergency communications
response vehicles or other disaster response mobile assets.
The LAN-Cell provides flexible & redundant
LAN / WiFi / WAN / VPN / Firewall communications in
a compact, rugged "all-in-one" appliance. The LAN-Cell 3 3G/4G router ncludes:
- 4 port 10/100 Ethernet Switch
- Integrated 802.11 b/g/n WiFi Access Point
- Ethernet WAN port for DSL, Cable, T1, etc.
- 3G/4G (LTE, HSPA+) USB modem slot for cellular data communications
- Supports LTE, HSPA+, EVDO, 1xRTT, HSPUA, HSDPA, UMTS, EDGE, GPRS USB Modems
Any of the LAN-Cell's WAN interfaces can be designated as primary, with the others serving as redundant back-up communication paths. Fail-over to the back-up interfaces is automatic. For example,
use a 3G/4G broadband cellular mode in the LAN-Cell and add an external satellite modem to provide communications if cellular services are down.
3G/4G Cellular Data Communications
Most customers deploying the LAN-Cell 3G/4G (LTE, HSPA+)
router as part of their disaster response comunications
strategy use the 3G/4G cellular data interface as the primary
means of obtaining mobile Internet access. Even during
wide-scale natural disasters, the 3G/4G cellular telephone system
is highly resilient. With mulptile carriers serving
most areas, overlapping cell coverage, auxillary power
and redundant equipment at cell sites, and fast-deployment
mobile cell sites maintained by many large carriers, the
cellular telephone network as proven to be a reliable
communications medium.
You are not "locked-in" to a single cellular provider or radio technology. The LAN-Cell's USB 3G/4G modem is the same
device used in laptops. By simply replacing the 3g/4G USB modem, you can easily change cellular carriers depending on which carrier is available. Some customers even "piggy-back" two or more LAN-Cell's, each with connections to different cellular and satellite carriers, allowing the LAN-Cells to automatically determine the best available connection.
Disaster Ready
The LAN-Cell 2 is available in the self-powered and ultra-rugged Cell-PAK case
to provide Wi-Fi and Internet access for field staff and/or evacuees.
The Cell-PAK is a truly mobile 3G cellular router and can
be powered by AC, 12VDC vehicle adapters, batteries or
solar cells. The LAN-Cell 2's low power draw,
compact size and secure mounting options make it easy
to incorporate into existing disaster response vehicles. Or keep a Cell-PAK charged up as a "grab & go" communications solution.
During Hurricane Katrina, a Proxicast customer reported
that only the LAN-Cell stayed up
throughout the storm and subsequent flooding. Make the
LAN-Cell 3G/4G router part of your disaster response
equipment.
