Cinetcomm has recently completed a multi-month operational evaluation of FirstNet and LTE utilizing the Company’s TotalConnex Network Solution backbone for a major government agency.  Interestingly, this test was terrestrial-based without satellite due to the territory being tested.  Testing included data, vehicle and coverage mapping, plus 2-way radio that was utilized on a daily basis from February through May 2020.

“The testing was an operational success for the Agency” stated Tom Soumas, Cinetcomm’s President and CEO. “Despite interruptions in business due to the COVID-19 pandemic, our partner support enabled us to provide the complete system experience with full mapping, radio services and vehicle status.  The system worked flawlessly throughout the entire test period.”

Cinetcomm’s TotalConnex solution is a hybrid, FirstNet, LTE and satellite-based communications system providing 100% coverage across all of North America. It features a 2-way radio network, broadband data, vehicle location and telematics.  This secure, multi-mode system requires no user intervention to “switch” between transmission methods, providing truly seamless coverage in all operating environments.

Cinetcomm and Kroyer Racing Engines have joined forces to provide remote connectivity to the Off Road racing community.

Kroyer Racing Engines, (kroyerracingengines.com) the premier builder of off road vehicle engine systems, has developed a telemetry system to remotely monitor vehicle performance, designed to be carried across Cinetcomm’s TotalConnex Network backbone.

Cinetcomm’s TotalConnex solution is a hybrid LTE and satellite-based system providing 100% coverage across all of North America. It features a 2-way radio network, broadband data, vehicle location and telematics.  This secure, multi-mode system requires no user intervention to “switch” between transmission methods, providing truly seamless coverage in all race environments.

The prototype telemetry system was field tested and demonstrated this past week at the Baja 1000 race in Mexico.

To accompany this new service, Kroyer and Cinetcomm are jointly developing a waterproof, ruggedized race vehicle system.  The development effort is currently underway with a scheduled release set for April 2020.

Once fielded, race teams will be able to monitor, communicate with, and control their vehicles on the course, no matter how remote they might be.

“We are very excited to be a part of this innovative approach to communication within the off road racing community” stated Tom Soumas, Cinetcomm’s President & CEO. “Kroyer Racing Engines, who is already a leader in this space, is upping their game to provide never before available information designed to assist teams in making real-time informed decisions and create more successful outcomes.”

Cinetcomm has received a supplemental systems contract funded by U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Operation Stonegarden (OPSG) from a major Tribal law enforcement agency operating in the Desert Southwest Region.  Four additional units dedicated to Operation Stonegarden activities will join the existing fleet of TotalConnex equipped patrol and detective vehicles providing service to tribal members across an area roughly the size of the state of Connecticut.

The OPSG Program funding these units supports enhanced cooperation and coordination among Customs and Border Protection (CBP), United States Border Patrol (USBP), and local, Tribal, territorial, state, and Federal law enforcement agencies.

“These TotalConnex equipped Operation Stonegarden patrol vehicles will have coverage for the agency wherever they might be assigned.”  stated Tom Soumas, Cinetcomm’s President & CEO. “This is a further enhancement to the Tribe’s ability to coordinate with Federal partners in their day-to-day activities”.

This installation is just one of many continuing projects underway within Public Safety communities to create a safer working environment for remotely dispersed officers, firefighters and EMTs across vast rural distances in the Western United States.
