GeoComm and RapidSOS Empower Emergency Communications Centers with Indoor Maps Creating Enhanced Emergency Response Location Information

St. Cloud, MN February 29, 2024 –(PR.com)– GeoComm, provider of Public Safety Location Intelligence®, and RapidSOS, creator of the world’s first intelligent safety platform, are excited to announce the integration of GeoComm Indoor Maps into RapidSOS premium.

Currently, telecommunicators in the U.S. are typically provided limited building structure information during a 9-1-1 call. An address point on a map with no additional structure information provides little to no context to call takers as they direct emergency responders; without GIS-level indoor maps, dispatchers are left to form their situational awareness without key building-specific details as they inform the responders. Ultimately, this can lead to less than optimal in-structure response time once personnel are on scene.

RapidSOS Premium provides public safety agencies with one unified mapping solution to deliver life- saving NG9-1-1 data and solutions, now with the integration of indoor maps, this solution further empowers emergency call takers and first responders with the next level of accurate location information.

GeoComm Indoor Maps, utilizing the latest Esri technology, provides actionable location intelligence to telecommunicators, such as clearly defined exterior entrances, interior rooms identified by name & number, and easily located automated external defibrillators, fire extinguishers, and cameras.

“RapidSOS empowers 911 and field responders with accurate reliable information to save lives,” said Ed Parkinson, President of Public Sector at RapidSOS. “Through our partnership with GeoComm for indoor mapping, telecommunicators are empowered with the in-building situational awareness to efficiently dispatch field responders.”

“The integration of GeoComm Indoor Maps into RapidSOS Premium will enable telecommunicators to deliver invaluable guidance to emergency personnel as they respond to emergency calls indoors, ultimately helping to save lives and protect property,” said Jeff Liebl, GeoComm President and CEO. “Building upon the optimal experience of locally authoritative outdoor GIS data in Premium, the indoor maps will bring the benefits of GIS data to indoor operations.”

For more information about the integration and its benefits during response events, register for the upcoming webinar “How Indoor Maps Improve Response During School Emergencies” on Wednesday, March 13 at 10:00 a.m. Central Time.

Lanner Partners with Nybsys to Build Scalable Edge-Cloud RAN Platform

San Jose, CA February 24, 2024 –(PR.com)– Lanner Electronics, a leading provider of network appliances and telco edge cloud servers, has officially announced a strategic partnership with Nybsys, a leading telecommunications equipment and services provider. The collaboration brings together the latest technologies for advancing Edge-Cloud RAN technologies, including Lanner scalable edge server ECA-5540, Intel Xeon processors, Intel FlexRAN reference software, and Nybsys’ 5G K-RAN platform (integrating O-RAN and Cloud RAN), aiming to accelerate the deployment of high speed, ultra-low latency radio access networks with enhanced security, reliability, and flexibility.

Featuring front I/O, a short chassis, and a wide operating temperature design, the ECA-5540 is powered by 4th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable processors with Intel vRAN Boost for optimized virtualization performance and power efficiency. The ECA-5540 supports up to 1024GB DDR5 memory, an OCP 3.0 NIC module slot, and PCIe expansions for multiple AI accelerators. Lanner’s ECA-5540 enables telecom operators to provide the advantages of software-defined, virtualized network services with secure, high-speed connections between Next Generation Node B (gNB) and User Equipment (UE).

Nybsys’ K-RAN platform provides several advantages for telecom operators. It features baseband consolidation, enabling efficient processing of signals from multiple cell sites using a single edge server (ECA-5540). The platform is flexible, supporting LTE and offering an upgrade path to 5G through software updates. Nybsys also delivers a high-capacity, gig-speed RAN solution suitable for large indoor areas, serving as an alternative to Distributed Antenna Systems (DAS). Additionally, the K-RAN platform meets the need for low latency in enterprise 5G applications. Overall, Nybsys presents a high-performance, cost-effective RAN solution compared to traditional offerings.

Jeans Tseng, CTO of Lanner, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership, stating, “This collaboration with Nybsys aligns perfectly with our commitment to delivering scalable 5G RAN solutions that scale seamlessly, accommodating the growing demands of the evolving edge cloud applications without compromising performance”, “We aim to provide more interoperable 5G edge servers that enables unparalleled edge compute power, AI acceleration and high bandwidth, ensures uninterrupted connectivity for mission-critical applications.

Mr. Moshtaq Ahmed, CEO of Nybsys, added, “We are excited to join forces with Lanner in this strategic partnership. The collaboration leverages combined expertise, Intel FlexRAN reference software, and Intel Xeon processors to provide telecom operators with the necessary flexibility and choice they need to thrive in the era of open, interoperable networks. This partnership represents a crucial stride for Nybsys in its mission to use its RAN platform to reach a significant portion of the 2.2 billion people globally who currently lack telecom service.”

As the telecommunications industry continues its evolution towards open and disaggregated architectures, the collaboration between Lanner and Nybsys represents a significant step forward in shaping the future of Open RAN.
