Common Questions

Yes. We work with incident logistics sections and can be ordered through standard procurement channels. Contact us directly first to confirm availability and get a quote, then your logistics section can process the order. We accept government purchase orders.
Yes β€” during active fire season we maintain 24/7 availability on that line. If you have an urgent deployment need outside fire season, leave a message and we'll call back within the hour.
From the time you confirm an order, we target wheels rolling within 6 hours. For Starlink rentals, equipment ships or we deploy same-day. For the comms trailer, our technician mobilizes with the trailer and heads to your incident. Exact timing depends on location and distance from Central Oregon.
Each unit comes pre-configured in a Pelican case with a 24-hour battery system, mounting hardware, and all cables. Mini and Gen 3 Standard units available. Daily rates β€” contact us for pricing. We can ship or deploy in person depending on your location and needs.
A single Starlink tops out around 150–250 Mbps and can go down due to weather, congestion, or obstructions. Our bonding service uses MPTCP technology to combine multiple Starlinks (and LTE) at the packet level β€” giving you 1000+ Mbps and true failover. If one link drops, traffic seamlessly continues on the others. Critical for incident command video, GIS, and ICS-WILD operations. Learn more at starlinkbonding.com.
Radio over IP (RoIP) bridges radio communications across internet links using the ICOM VEPG4 platform. It allows agencies on different frequencies or locations to communicate through a common network β€” critical for multi-agency incidents where interoperability is a challenge. Great for extending comms range beyond line-of-sight.
Yes, VoIP phone systems for command staff are available upon request. While cell coverage has reduced demand for dedicated VoIP lines, some incidents β€” especially in remote areas β€” still benefit from a structured phone system. Ask us when you call.
