C4i’s Military Grade Testing Ensures Maximum Dispatch System Reliability in Other Fields
New Smart Phone Technologies Enable Immediate Retrieval of Patients' Medical Information
C4i goes to great heights to test dura- bility of its Radio Interface Unit (RIU), not only for military, but for an array of other fields as well—including public safety, government, transportation and utilities. C4i demonstrated this extreme durability with the successful comple- tion of Mil Std-810 Altitude qualification testing for its Radio Interface Unit (RIU). The assessment was conducted by an independent test facility in Virginia, and involved running the RIU at an extremely low temperature (-60° F) in a decompression chamber continuously for seven days.
Altitude testing is performed to deter- mine whether the hardware can with- stand and operate in a low-pressure, low temperature environment — a test that C4i’s RIU passed with flying colors. The assessment mimics the effects of a high- altitude setting and simulates extreme cold weather, thereby proving the RIU’s environmental survivability and its abili- ty to function at great heights, even dur- ing potentially freezing temperatures. In the public safety arena, this ability is vital in terms of high altitudes. For instance, C4i’s RIU can be implemented as part of a radio gateway at an unmanned,
remote radio site on a mountaintop, and operate without failing. The RIU con- nects to the radio system and converts voice signals from the radios into IP for transport across the network. C4i’s ultra-rugged hardware ensures that the signal will get through regardless of the conditions. “A high level of reliability is absolute- ly critical to public safety, military and government operations,” said Brad Kay, President of C4i Inc. “They’ve all been tested, and exceed the very stringent military specifications, and those tests and rigorous development processes ensure reliability and performance,” Kay commented.
Moreover, C4i subjected its RIU to a series of “mil-standard” drop, shock and vibration tests in order to further demonstrate how rugged the equipment actually is. These tests illustrate the RIU’s ruggedness, and ensure its ability to function in unforeseen conditions, such as in a mobile or transportable operation, or in earthquake zones. Even when exposed to environmental hazards, the products will provide guaranteed performance. EMS
MedicStats has developed a revolution- ary system that offers a unique method of storing updated medical information, and for first responders to retrieve vital med- ical information about patients — utiliz- ing a quick response barcode. The MedicStats Info System contains a MedicStats card, which can be carried in a purse or wallet, and two keytags, for a keychain or necklace. The cards and tags can be easily scanned with a smart phone, or medical scanner that immediately dis- plays medical information in seconds. A quick scan will reveal a patient’s cur- rent medications, allergies, conditions, health providers and emergency con- tacts. The medical information chosen by the MedicStats member will be con- verted to the member’s own personal website, and then connected to an indi- vidual QR (Quick Response) code, which will be placed on the MedicStats card and tag, and can be accessed at any time. The information can also be updated, and forwarded to any chosen health pro- fessional, eliminating the need to fill out unnecessary paperwork. The MedicStats card also eliminates one of the biggest problems emergency personnel face: an unresponsive patient who cannot pro- vide important medical information. Medic Stats provides an easy, innovative solution to the problem and eliminates the need for patients to wear medical bracelets.
This is a revolutionary product in the health forum, and will become a vital sys- tem for families and medical services. This will help you collect, connect and protect your medical history. EMS
