Hypha upgrades Fire Rescue NSW satcomms
Hypha has been awarded the contract to supply over 700 Fire Rescue New South Wales vehicles the satellite equipment and airtime to facilitate firefighters with critical communications over the next three to five years. The contract is to supply Cobham Satcom Explorer terminals, over the Inmarsat satellite network, forming part of FRNSW’s Connected Firefighter Program.
The program allows crews to better communicate in the protection of communities when there is a significant need for reliable communications for emergency services during a major emergency.
The Connected Firefighter means access to best-in-class communications technology by upgrading ageing hardware and delivering technology that will keep FRNSW connected. This is part of an investment by the NSW Government in response to the recommendations made after the deadly Black Summer bushfires of 2019/2020.
