Highlighted Solutions

Improved availability of emergency services network during natural disasters

 Opportunity: State government requires terrestrial T1 circuit backup during natural disasters to maintain emergency services connectivity.

 Solution: Automatically switch to backup packet satellite network upon detection of T1 failure using Engage IPTube with Protector and Compression features.

• Result: When a storm knocks out terrestrial T1 circuits, connectivity is automatically restored via satellite, keeping emergency responder networks functioning.

Lower transport costs for routing emergency calls to PSAP 

 Opportunity: County government seeks to reduce T1 backhaul costs for carrying dedicated analog circuits from Local Exchange Carrier to Public Safety Access Point (PSAP).

 Solution: Convert T1 circuits to packets with the Engage IPTube and transport traffic over a lower cost packet network.

 Result: Reliable lower cost communications with no changes to the existing PSAP or local exchange equipment, or standard operating procedures.

Increased reliability of state-wide emergency services network

• Opportunity: Unpredictable outages in state-wide T1 backhaul network require State government to look for cost-effective alternatives.

 Solution: Detect T1 circuit issues and automatically switch traffic to backup 4G cellular network using Engage IPTube T1 with Protector option.

 Result: T1 traffic routed over cellular network only when circuit issues exist, maximizing availability while minimizing backup costs.
