Returning for its 3rd annual installment, SMi's Mobile Deployable Communications event will once again lead the way in providing the latest overview of in-theatre tactical communications, national roadmaps, technology, interoperability and industry support. With the pace of NATO operations in Afghanistan increasing and the challenges becoming more diverse, hear the lessons learned in the field and ensure that your organisation is best placed to support the military on operations. What technology is in use and what new technology is being deployed? Also learn directly from first responders and emergency services. How do their experiences and needs compare with those of the military and what comparisons can be drawn? Providing secure and interoperable mobile deployable communications is imperative in achieving greater situational awareness and superior operational capabilities. Attend this event to share experiences, network with the people that matter and maximise your capabilities.
