An emergency communications system with no single point of failure.

An emergency communications system is only as strong as its weakest link — so ARC Edge removes the weak link entirely. It aggregates cellular, satellite, Wi-Fi, and wired paths into one resilient network: primary, alternate, contingency, and emergency, live at once, in one deployable box.

02The Problem ONE FAILURE FROM SILENCE

A PACE plan on paper
isn't a PACE plan
in the field.

Every agency has a PACE plan — primary, alternate, contingency, emergency. On paper. In the field, each layer is a separate device, a separate procedure, and a separate delay while an operator notices the failure, finds the backup, and brings it up by hand. The gap between layers is where calls drop, dispatch goes quiet, and the common operating picture goes stale. ARC Edge collapses the stack: every layer is live at once, and traffic converges to the best surviving path in under 50 milliseconds — before anyone on the net feels it.

03The AnswerARC EDGE · PACE IN ONE BOX
EMERGENCY COMMS THAT HOLD

Primary. Alternate. Contingency. Emergency. All live at once.

ARC Edge aggregates every available path — cellular across multiple carriers, satellite, Wi-Fi-as-WAN, wired uplink — into one resilient network, and steers every call, video feed, and data flow across the best paths, every second.

01/ Resilience

No Single Point of Failure

5+ paths run simultaneously — multiple carriers, satellite, Wi-Fi-as-WAN, wired uplink. A carrier outage or a fiber cut is a routing event, not an incident: traffic converges to surviving paths in under 50 milliseconds.

The call doesn't drop. Dispatch doesn't go quiet.

02/ Speed

Live in Minutes, Not Days

ARC Edge is a field kit, not an installation project. Power it, and it discovers and aggregates whatever connectivity is available — no tower builds, no truck rolls, no waiting on carriers.

Stage it ahead of the event. Activate it when the event arrives.

03/ Interoperability

Runs What You Already Run

Application-aware and transport-agnostic: dispatch VoIP, ATAK feeds, video, telemetry, and incident management tools ride the network unchanged. No new workflow, no retraining.

Your tools, your procedures — on a network that holds.

04Who It's ForBUILT FOR THE PEOPLE ON CALL

Built for the agencies that can't go dark.

AEmergency Operations Centers

  • Keep the EOC connected to every field team when public networks are down or saturated
  • A common operating picture across county, state, and federal partners
  • Staged ahead of the event — powered, discovered, and live in minutes

BPublic Safety Agencies

  • Dispatch VoIP, records access, and data that hold through the incident for police, fire, and EMS
  • ATAK feeds, body-worn and drone video, and telemetry carried without new workflows
  • Mutual-aid interoperability — agencies join the network, not a new procedure

CHospitals & Critical Facilities

  • Clinical systems, VoIP, and telehealth stay reachable through a carrier outage or fiber cut
  • Diverse-path WAN with automatic failover — no operator in the loop
  • Continuity-of-operations comms without building and maintaining a second network
05QuestionsEMERGENCY COMMS · ANSWERED

Asked by every agency we talk to.

What is an emergency communications system?

An emergency communications system keeps agencies connected when normal networks are damaged, overloaded, or unavailable. ARC Edge does this by aggregating every available path — cellular across multiple carriers, satellite, Wi-Fi-as-WAN, and wired uplink — into one resilient network with no single point of failure, so voice, video, and data stay live through the incident.

How does ARC Edge stay up when networks fail?

It never depends on any one network. ARC Edge runs 5+ aggregated paths simultaneously and steers traffic to the best surviving links every second. If a carrier drops or a fiber line is cut, sessions converge to the remaining paths in under 50 milliseconds — fast enough that calls, video, and data don't notice. That architecture is what delivers 99.97% session uptime.

How does ARC Edge fit into a PACE plan?

It is a PACE plan in one box. Instead of primary, alternate, contingency, and emergency comms living in separate devices that operators switch between by hand, ARC Edge keeps every layer live at once and fails over automatically — no operator action, no gap on the net while someone digs out the backup.

Does it work with our existing radios, dispatch, and incident management tools?

Yes. ARC Edge is application-aware and transport-agnostic: it carries your existing tools — dispatch VoIP, ATAK feeds, video, telemetry, incident management software — without changing how your teams work. It makes the network resilient underneath what you already use.
