Disaster Response

After any devastating event, local telecommunications disruptions are common. As a first responder, you want to be connected from the minute you arrive on site. Our system isn't just designed to meet your communication requirements, but to exceed them! Here are some features of our Emergency service V-Sat service:

  • High speed
  • Committed Information Rate (CIR)
  • Low latency
  • Available with 1, 5 or 13 static IPs
  • Supports VPN, Voice, Fax & Video Conferencing & almost any IP based application
  • 24/7 Tech Support

Unlike consumer grade equipment, our systems are built to work under extreme conditions and can be transported and deployed easily. Whether you choose a turnkey fixed system or a portable flyaway, you will have a system that is self contained and requires little effort to be functional.

Case at hand - Haiti's Earthquake

When a catastrophic earthquake struck Haïti on January 12th, 2010, one of our emergency iDirect system was flown to the disaster zone with only 12 hours notice, as part of a joint effort between Québecor, Xplornet, Kusat and Reporters Sans Frontières. The system was used for emergency relief effort during the weeks that followed the earthquake and it has been in service since, to provide voice and data communications between Haïti's press and the outside World.
