The Connected Undercover Vehicle
COVERT COMMUNICATION SOLUTIONS FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIESThe majority of vehicles deployed by law enforcement agencies are designed to be as visible as humanly possible. With lights flashing and sirens blaring, the objective is to ensure their presence is known. Some departments however, their goal is the opposite. They need their covert vehicles to keep a low profile, and go unnoticed while they perform covert operations. These vehicles still need to possess reliable and secure communications, and that’s where USAT can help.
Business Needs
Ultra-Low Profile Data Connectivity for Undercover Vehicles
Solution Overview
Cradlepoint Mobile Routers and Mobile Mark Antennas
For vehicles that need reliable and secure data transmission capabilities, but also need to keep a low profile, we recommend the IBR900. This mobile router from Cradlepoint is available in WiFi equipped LTE-A and LTE-A Pro models certified on FirstNet®. Law enforcement agencies need ruggedized solutions capable of withstanding harsh environments and rough conditions. With the IBR900 built to MIL-STD-810G specifications and IP54 rated, we can deliver the rugged reliability your undercover vehicles need to perform mission-critical covert operations.
To inconspicuously boost cellular coverage, WiFi range, and GPS accuracy we recommend our undercover clients utilize CVWG502 antennas from Mobile Mark. These ultra compact units contain two cellular, two WiFi, and one GNSS element - providing 2x2 MiMo, 2x2 WiFi, and GNSS operation. Just like the IBR900 router, the CVWG502 conforms to MIL-STD-810G specifications, and has an impressive IP67 rating.
IBR900 mobile routers available from USAT are sold as part of an all-inclusive mobile networking solution, including NetCloud software, purpose-built hardware, 24x7 support, and a limited lifetime warranty. The NetCloud Service for Mobile provides enterprise-class reliability, manageability, and security and allows cohesive management, at scale. With NetCloud, police departments gain the ability to remotely manage, update, and configure devices from a single login, trigger automatic alerts, data transfers, and more.
