New-Age Emergency Communications Network Now Available in Canada | Business and finance

Forrest Green is a leading provider of solutions for police services with bilingual employees with security clearance.

Mutualink’s LNK360 â„¢ platform, now available across Canada, offers unprecedented collaboration and instant communication by creating a single, transparent communication bridge between public safety agencies during critical incidents. This bridge allows first responders and others, as needed, to relay voice, video and visual data communications between themselves, remote control centers and other partner agencies.

Incident-based collaboration – Agencies can now maintain full control of their communications assets and initiate communications and data exchanges with partners on demand.

True interoperability â„¢ – Creates a unique mutual aid communication channel comprising Land Mobile Radio (LMR) users, LTE smartphone users and web users.

As Mutualink builds Canada’s public safety network, first responders will have access to any other organization or user of the network, even across the Canada-U.S. Border. This unprecedented access will link communications between agencies during small incidents, but will be particularly useful during large-scale disasters like the massive forest fires this year.

“Information and communication are the cornerstone of public safety in an emergency. Mutualink is proud to offer Canadian public safety officials a tool that will help them save lives and protect communities. Forrest Green is just the partner to help make it happen, ”said Mark Guthrie, Director of Growth, Mutualink, Inc.
