## The challenge

Terrestrial networks are frequently unavailable or overloaded during disaster response. Emergency services need reliable, low-cost connectivity for many users across a region, including voice, data, fleet telemetry and field radio integration.

- Damaged or congested terrestrial communications.
- Response teams moving beyond normal network coverage.
- Disconnected radio, voice, tracking and telemetry systems.
- Need to connect many responders in the same affected region.

## The HiSKY solution

HiSKY combines satellite IoT/M2M and voice over Ka/Ku-band GEO satellites. Smartellite™ Dynamic terminals connect smart devices and support LMR/DMR/P25 radios through a dedicated RF relay box. Space Control (NMS) enables remote configuration and management of the network.

- Communications while response vehicles are on the move.
- Voice and chat through smart devices or supported field radios.
- Fleet tracking, routing, SOS alerts and vehicle telemetry.
- Optional satellite/LTE connectivity through an external LTE router.

## What the solution enables

### Continuity

A satellite path when terrestrial systems are damaged or unavailable.

### Interoperability

Field radios, smart devices and operations centers on one architecture.

### Awareness

Live fleet position, telemetry, alerts and logs.

### Scale

Regional connectivity for emergency and recovery teams.
