Distance and mobility are no longer an issue allowing personnel to instantly collaborate with each other wherever they are as individuals or as a team using talk-groups. A significant advantage of Entropia's broadband critical Push-to-Talk and Push-to-Video is the ability for a single person to reach an active talk-group with a single button press. When just one button is pressed, colleagues are connected in near real-time (milliseconds) and can hear and see each other in high quality audio and video.
Broadband business critical communications provide a high grade of service suitable for all business focused organisations including airports, transport logistics and smart city management. It has less emphasis on supporting mission critical blue-light services where the primary focus is to protect and save lives.
We understand that personnel from all business sectors rely on high reachability, availability and reliability, low latency, Real Time operating capabilities, high levels of security, private and group communications.
Entropia delivers the easiest and most secure way to access your Internet of Things (IOT) and Machine to Machine (M2M) data, and is the most effective way to gain full control of your devices from a secure cloud environment.
Every ComBus service has been designed to be fully flexible, working seamlessly and securely over international broadband IP, integrating with Entropia’s fully managed, licenced TETRA national network across Belgium and the Netherlands, meaning that your operators can access all functions from anywhere using any device.
The Integrated 112 Monitoring System (GMS) currently supports 112 operators and helps frontline staff by providing a real-time overview of operations.
From 2024, Entropia will add a redundant radio connection to every mast, so that every mast can now be reached via a radio connection and a fiber optic connection.
Entropia is migrating its network from the TEA-1 to TEA-3 principle, a strong and efficient encryption that provides good protection for voice and data traffic on Entropia's networks.
Entropia provides TETRA and Broadband two-way voice and data communication services. Entropia's ComBus & Combonet together provide a catalogue of cloud-based apps that connect people and key equipment together across all technologies and networks.
Mission critical is the essential communications service provision for blue light and pale blue light operations including police, fire, ambulance, security, and the utility sector. All these organisations have demanding communications requirements.
Mission critical delivers instant call setup and instant data messages, both with a greater than 99.999% call setup guarantee even if the carrier infrastructure is congested. This is our definition of mission critical, and a pledge we stand by.
To achieve this grade of service, the network operator must ensure absolute continuity of resources and connectivity for a pre-determined operation area. There cannot be any third-party resources that the network provider cannot fully control.
The TETRA infrastructure is totally owned, controlled, and managed by Entropia meaning that continuity of resource can be guaranteed. Entropia has over 30 years’ worth of experience in voice and data networks. TETRA remains the most popular choice for mission critical services across the world today.
Yes, however for this broadband service to be graded as Mission Critical the end-to-end service and infrastructure must be a private network with all the resources being controlled and managed by either Entropia or by the organisation using the service. There cannot be any third-party resources that the network provider cannot fully control.
No, we do not class it as mission critical, this is because we use partner networks in over 176 countries accessing 500+ tier 1 networks to provide connectivity.
Our provisions rely on our service partner networks to provide connectivity which grades the service as Business Grade. Business Grade communications still provides a high grade of service suitable for many organisations, but with less emphasis on protecting and saving lives.
Yes, ComBus’ catalogue of applications can be used on both grades of network. Only the network they operate on can determine if the use is mission critical or broadband critical. ComBus as such is always mission critical.
