Cell On Wheels (COW) — Emergency Deployable Unit Delivering the Network, Connecting Heroes, Securing the Future. About: Emergency scenarios and disasters can wipe out existing communications networks at the very moment they are needed most. Large planned events can also bring a network to a standstill and cause chaos across jurisdictions and agencies. The Cell On Wheels (COW) – emergency deployable unit – keeps first responders connected any place, anytime, and in any emergency or event. What Sets Us Apart: “You can set up instantly on scene, bringing essential communication to bear in a moment’s notice.” Chris Marzilli President, General Dynamics C4 Systems FirstNet-Ready and Capable: General Dynamics Public Safety LTE network equipment was successfully tested at the Public Safety Communications Research Program (PSCR), marking a significant milestone in demonstrating that the COW is capable of supporting America’s FirstNet initiative. FirstNet will rely on technology, such as General Dynamics Mission Systems’ FirstNet-Ready COW, to provide secure broadband communications and interoperability among more than 60,000 federal, state, local and tribal agencies and across jurisdictional lines. Delivers Instant Access to Voice, Video, Data, Text, and Chat: Fourth Generation Long Term Evolution (4G LTE) is the future of wireless broadband technology for public safety. The 4G LTE network created by the COW—with WiFi hotspots for range extension—provides smartphone access to data feeds from sensors like iRobot’s unmanned ground vehicle and aerostats. The advanced broadband network’s large range of coverage helps first responders manage critical public safety communications at natural disaster sites or for large-scale events. About General Dynamics LTE General Dynamics Mission Systems LTE combines expertise in building and integrating complex communication networks and products with industry leading 3G and 4G Long Term Evolution (LTE) wireless broadband to deliver “always on” high-speed access to vital information needed by law enforcement, emergency first responders, government agencies, military personnel and others responsible for public safety and national security. General Dynamics Mission Systems LTE ensures that information, ranging from real-time video feeds to large image files and other mission-critical data will be available in cluttered urban environments, isolated rural areas and everywhere in between. General Dynamics Mission Systems is committed to introducing state-of-the-art, next generation communications technology. Field Tested, First Responder Approved: Partnering with Texas A&M University, Texas National Guard, Texas Task Force 1, and other Texas public safety agencies along with the EDGE Innovation Network and members, General Dynamics Mission Systems successfully demonstrated its Band Class 14, 4G LTE network at the EDGE Innovation Network’s 2013 Winter Institute held at Texas A&M University’s Disaster City training facility using the COW. In February 2015, the COW was used to produce a 4G LTE network for first responders and agency operators at the FIS Alpine World Ski Championships (AWSC) in Vail, CO. For the first time ever, emergency first responders charged with protecting thousands of spectators and athletes at AWSC had access to a dedicated wireless broadband network built specifically for public safety. Cell On Wheels (COW) — Emergency Deployable Unit The Technology on Board 4G LTE eNodeBlue: Our Long Term Evolution (LTE) eNode B is a single carrier LTE base station packaged into a compact, rugged, water and dust resistant enclosure. The small size and durability of the eNode B make it ideal for situations where critical infrastructure is damaged or where network capacity needs to be rapidly expanded or deployed. The Band Class variants of the eNode B support 5 MHz and 10 MHz carriers in the bands allocated for public safety and military tactical applications. 2W SWaP Evolution 20W SWaP Optimized 80W High Power vCN – 4G Core Network: Size, weight and power are important to consider whether you are building a network from the ground up, upgrading to an existing network, or need the flexibility of a deployable network. The vCN 4G Core Network is a virtual core network (vCN) that delivers all of the functionality you require from a single Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) server. This virtual environment enables the Evolved Packet Core to be distributed to the edge of the network. Available in rugged servers for tactical applications and or non-rugged servers for fixed site installations, the vCN is there where and when you need it.
