We have completed our 2nd MERC Command Center project for the US Department of Energy – both of these units being delivered within the past 60 days. For these first two projects the DOE was focused on small tactical communication trailers that could be quickly deployed and relocated to respond to wildfire events near any of their facilties and power plants. These small but powerful communication trailers will be equipped with Sat-Lite GEO satellites, Kymeta LEO satellites, Dejero LTE routers, land mobile radios and repeaters, 30 foot pneumatic towers, mobile generator power, and a climate controlled work space. There are more projects in the works for the DOE but we are happy to see our MERC command center trailers put to work for such an important agency. This was a joint project with Sat-Lite Technologies based out of White Oak, Texas.
CCS also continues to roll out more of of our PERC kits – Portable Emergency Response Centers. I like to think of a PERC as basically a mobile command center in a box. The concept behind the unit was to provide a small highly portable communication platform that could be carried by hand or in a backpack to provide a battery powered mobile communication network that can used anywhere in the world to provide a vital network connection to allow email access, internet access, hosted VoIP or SIP phones, the ability to stream video such as drone video, radio interoperability – basically to support any application that needs network connectivity. A lithium battery bank is included to provide 24 hours of run time before the unit will need to be plugged in to a AC or DC power source. For First Responders this first 24 hours is critical in an emergency response situation. The PERC unit can work with any cellular network and most GEO and LEO satellite units including StarLink and One Web.
CCS will also have some very exciting news later this month on a new product we are launching which will continue with our theme of compact highly mobile communication solutions. Stay tuned for ths new product announcement!! Please contact us with any questions at 972-772-2721 or info@ccscontact.net .
