IBM and Cisco Emergency Crisis Management

Cisco and IBM have announced that they are now able to give emergency preparedness teams communications from different platforms that are integrated into their routers. The routers will be able to handle wireless communications from different frequencies and bridge them together to enable more efficient communications in times of emergencies such as Hurricane Katrina, earthquakes and tsunamis that have left communications spread across multiple frequencies.

Dallas Computer Repair is equipped with wireless communications in the amateur radio frequency range that enable them to communicate locally as well as globally to respond in a somewhat sufficient manner but the cross platform routers will be much more efficient so Dallas Computer Repair can patch not only into telephone systems which more often are down but into different local frequencies where we do not have the equipment to run. This will be invaluable for emergency response teams.
