The Interoperable Communications Extension System (ICES), gives first responders access to an immediate private cellular based communications network. It can support up to 1,000 users and can be set up in 15 minutes. It allows first responders to use their high speed cellular devices, and laptops, to communicate with each other and with the outside world – even when no other network infrastructure exists. The ICES consists of a cellular base station transceiver, a satellite backhaul solution, and all necessary routers and servers. Communications traffic on the private network is backhauled over the satellite or T1 line to a network operating center, where it is connected via a dedicated teleport to the PSTN.

Interoperable Communications Extension 24 hours a day (ICE24) is the latest innovation from Rivada Networks. ICE24 enables responders to create their own private, secure area of voice, video and data communications at any location – fast. ICE24 leverages the Nationwide Emergency Communications Partnership (ECP) which allows Responders of any organization to instantly link up with another ICE equipped organization. The key to ICE24 is effectively bridging legacy Land Mobile Radios (LMR) together with leading edge wireless services down to the cellular phone level. The First Responder is now empowered with extended LMR coverage, interoperable communications, wireless internet at the scene, high speed video surveillance and reporting, and email. ICE24 delivers connectivity anywhere, anytime via its embedded Satellite Communications On-The-Move capability. This allows Response personnel to maintain a connection even in a moving vehicle where there is no other means to communicate.

The Joint Incident Site Communications Capability (JISCC), serves as a mobile command and control centre that can be set up in an hour. It is a dedicated solution that requires no existing local infrastructure – making it particularly valuable in responding to disasters. It gives users access to all the communication needed to run a dedicated command and control centre, including Video conferencing, a dedicated LMR network, VoIP, WiFi and access to the outside world through a self-acquiring Ku band satellite. The system also provides users access to a dedicated broadband network through Wi-Fi. The JISCC supports XTL 5000 MBIITR/HF/UHF/ 700/800 MHz radios through the use of Quantar base stations, repeaters and antennas.
