Enhancing Safety for Wildland Firefighters and Other Emergency Personnel

In the fight against forest fires, clear and reliable asset and personnel tracking is mission critical. Advanced Situational Awareness, LLC, chose our 50-Watt UHF Mobile Amplifier as part of their RangerTrax© solution to ensure consistent RF tracking in areas where cell service is non-existent, weak, or otherwise down due to damage.

During life-threatening situations, RangerTrax’s radio-based GPS system, provides essential real-time asset and personnel tracking and mapping over RF. This capability enhances the situational awareness and safety of wildland firefighters, allowing them to navigate and coordinate effectively under extreme conditions. Using our rugged mobile 50 Watt UHF amplifier ensures that RangerTrax operates independent of satellite and cellular networks, providing a dependable solution that empowers firefighters to focus on saving lives and protecting communities.
