We recently announced a new IMPAC System capable of supporting 4G LTE technology. First responders and public safety practitionners in many countries rely on broadband networks to help them complete their job functions. During a disaster event or incident situation they need to have these communications capabilities available to them. Traditionally mobile network operators have deployed cell on wheels (COWs) to restore or recover cellular network coverage when their normal equipment goes out of service.
