Polaris Networks joins Nemergent Solutions to deliver world-class Mission Critical communication services for First Responders

Polaris Networks and Nemergent Solutions today announced successful completion of interoperability tests between Polaris Networks’ NetEPC and Nemergent’s Mission Critical Services (MCS) Application Server.
The end-to-end tests were facilitated by the adoption of 3GPP standards for mission-critical and public safety communications, defined in Rel. 12, 13 and 14 specifications, by both companies in the EPC and MCS-AS implementations. The companies tested a wide range of mission critical services including MCPTT private calls, group calls and multiple private calls. Describing the collaborative effort as a significant milestone for Polaris, Mr. Aditya Saraf, VP – Business Development said, “This initiative by Polaris & Nemergent provides fillip to the efforts of the industry and groups like ETSI and 3GPP for replacing legacy technologies with standards based LTE technology for mission critical communications. Working together, Polaris and Nemergent can help build wireless networks that not only delivers mission-critical voice services but multi-media services as well.”
Polaris Networks has been working with the PSCR lab in Boulder over four years to research and test features and capabilities in the core network infrastructure of LTE to deliver critical communication services. The NetEPC is a complete implementation of the core network elements of 4G-LTE. It is widely used to build private LTE networks by industries such as mining, shipping, oil & gas and also by government agencies responsible for internal and external security. Polaris customers will now be able to augment their networks to provide mission critical communication services using solutions like those from Nemergent Solutions.
Nemergent Solutions, with headquarters in Bilbao, Spain, has made rapid strides in developing and delivering elements for Mission Critical Push-to-Talk based on 3GPP standards. They joined the ETSI organized MCPTT Plugtest in 2017 and 2018 editions, showing standards compliancy from the early stages. The company is looking to further its partnership with Polaris Networks and deliver integrated mission critical communication solutions to customers.
Jose Oscar Fajardo, CEO at Nemergent Solutions, said,”Following Nemergent’s philosophy of fostering open interoperable ecosystems based on international standards, we are happy to collaborate with Polaris in this new partnership. Evaluating our MCS applications over carrier-grade mission-critical network cores such as NetEPC allows us bringing the technology to the end users”.
