5G NETWORK SOLUTIONS THAT EMPOWER YOUR BUSINESS AND SOLVES CRISIS COMMUNICATION
NETWORK ARCHITECTURE
See the connections.
Understand the system.
Explore how radio access, the core network, connected devices and applications fit together. A clear view of the architecture helps turn operational needs into a practical deployment plan.
01 / EMERGENCY COMMUNICATION ARCHITECTURE
One connected response.
Four coordinated layers.
From the terminal in the field to the applications used by command teams, every layer has a role. This reference architecture brings deployable networks, transport links and emergency services into one clear view.
Response applications
The services that support the mission.
- Public safety command
- Fire & rescue
- Wildfire response
- Monitoring & mitigation
- Flood & drought response
- Earthquake & geological response
- Hazardous materials oversight
Transport network
The paths that carry information onward.
Mobile infrastructure
Field networks and command coordination.
DEPLOYED COMMUNICATION NETWORK
Broadband ad hoc links between compatible field nodes
WIDER NETWORK
National emergencyprivate networkInterconnection with the wider emergency communication system
Connected terminals
The devices used by people and equipment.
Start with the mission.
Identify the response teams, the information they need and the applications that support their work.
Choose the available path.
Combine field infrastructure with suitable onward transport. The right mix depends on the site and the links available.
Connect the complete workflow.
Plan terminals, local links and command-system integration together, so each part supports the same operation.
Conceptual emergency communication architecture. The transport options shown are alternatives or complementary paths; the final topology and interoperability depend on the selected deployment.
02 / EMERGENCY COMMAND ARCHITECTURE
Turn field information
into coordinated action.
A command platform connects the people making decisions with the information coming from the field. This layered view brings interfaces, operational applications, data and communication networks into one architecture.
Command interfaces
A shared operating picture across locations.
Operational applications
Tools for mapping, communication and video.
GIS & mapping
- Geographic datasets
- Spatial information
- Map layers
- Mapping components
Converged communications
- Audio / video dispatch
- Audio / video recording

- Text messaging
Video integration
- Streaming media services
- Streaming media management
Data foundation
Governance, exchange and operational context.
Data governance
- Data ingestion
- Data processing
- Data resource pool
- Data applications & services
- Data exchange & sharing
Operational datasets
- Command structure
- Public information releases
- Common reference data
- Coordination & conference data
- Intelligent assessment data
Transport networks
Communication paths that connect the system.
- 5G
- 4G
- Ad hoc networks
- Ethernet
- Satellite
- IoT
Field devices & sensors
Information and communication at the edge.
- Narrowband / broadband trunking terminals
- Vehicle terminals
- Sensing terminals
- Multimode terminals
- Cameras
One view, multiple interfaces.
Command-centre, vehicle, mobile and handheld interfaces give different teams access to the information and coordination tools their roles require.
Make information usable.
Mapping, communication and video tools depend on well-managed data, clear interfaces and an agreed path from field devices to operational applications.
Govern the whole system.
Management and security span all layers, including access rights, integration ownership and the operation of the connected platform.
Functional command architecture. Features and integration points are selected for each deployment.
03 / EMERGENCY SECURITY ARCHITECTURE
Protection at every layer.
Trust across the system.
Security is built from several connected mechanisms. Authentication establishes who can join; radio, transport and operational controls protect different parts of the communication path.
PRIMARY AUTHENTICATION · LOGICAL FUNCTION CHAIN
01Control plane Authentication, signalling & key derivation
02User plane The application data carried by the network
Transport protection and application-layer security are planned separately for the onward path. VLAN segmentation alone does not encrypt traffic.
Establish identity.
The device, serving network and authentication functions establish the security context used for access and subsequent key derivation.
Respect the boundaries.
Radio protection, NAS protection and transport protection cover different scopes. A protected radio link is one part of the complete application path.
Operate securely.
Equipment protection, permissions, monitoring and certificate management need clear configuration and operational ownership.
Simplified functional view. Security roles follow 3GPP TS 33.501 / ETSI. Mechanisms, algorithms and user-plane integrity depend on equipment capability, network policy and configuration.
FROM ARCHITECTURE TO APPLICATION
Connect the design
to your real requirements.
Start with your site, your devices and the information your teams need to share. Together, we can map the network roles, integration points and deployment priorities.
