MobileCorp deploys Cradlepoint cellular network for Marine Rescue NSW

MobileCorp is proud to announce that we are a key partner in delivering an important communications network upgrade for Marine Rescue NSW.

Every minute can mean the difference between life and death in an emergency on the water. The new communications platform will give MRNSW absolute confidence that they can respond immediately to distress calls from boaters caught in a potentially life-threatening situation.

MobileCorp will supply and deploy 5G-ready Cradlepoint branch network routers for 45 coastal MRNSW sites and also sites on the Alpine Lakes, Murray River and Lord Howe Island. This solution will provide reliable and agile wireless Telstra 4G LTE connectivity, automated traffic routing, and prioritised traffic management.

 

We will be also be managing the MRNSW mobile fleet providing a single point of contact for mobile operations, lifecycle management, end user support and telecom expense management.

New communications upgrade will save lives

MobileCorp and Exigo Tech - two Telstra Platinum Partners - have worked together to provide a superior solution for a critical service organisation.

Marine Rescue NSW Commissioner, Stacey Tannos, said the exciting project would provide the service with essential communications surety.

“We work closely with Telstra and our technology partners ExigoTech Pty Ltd and MobileCorp 

to  ensure we have reliable networks and IT solutions, so we can be certain we can activate our crews, answer boaters’ calls for help and access our online vessel tracking and other systems 24/7.

 

"Every minute can mean the difference between life and death in an emergency on the water. So we need absolute confidence that we can not only answer distress calls from boaters caught in a potentially life-threatening situation but also that we can immediately call out our crews to get on the water."
