Are you ready for MCX to finally deliver on its promise?
There is a growing realism in the market about the (im)possibilities of mission-critical communication over public mobile networks (MCX). For many public safety organizations, like the police, only one thing is truly critical: a reliable connection with the control room.
This is what the current Tetra network is designed for and it’s the absolute minimum requirement for any replacement technology.
And that’s the problem.
Replacement MCX solutions rely on a single mobile network and, despite talk of national roaming, there are many technical, political, and commercial hurdles. The MCX standards don’t address:
- Improving network coverage
- Handling congestion
- Dealing with outages
- Dealing with Mobile operators
More is needed, like network priority and backup access to all available mobile networks in the country. If your primary network fails, there needs to be an alternative, without any user-interaction. Only then can mission-critical availability surpass the current Tetra network.
Sounds like the future? It’s not.
By combining Lyfo.net’s comprehensive network setup with priority in the home operator’s core network, we have realized a reliable solution for mission-critical communication over public mobile networks and you can start NOW to improve mobile connectivity for your users. No need to wait for MCX!
Starting NOW creates a natural growth path for both Operators, Public safety organizations and their users towards MCX based services in the coming years, step by step.
