F.R.E.D. PAGER

First. Response. Emergency. Deployment.

DIGITAL ALERTING SYSTEM

for BOS, fire departments and on-call services

What really counts with a radio alarm receiver: reliable availability 24/7, fast alerting, simple operation.

The F.R.E.D. pager is a cloud-based, redundant two-way pager for reliable 24/7 alerting. Thanks to LTE CAT M1, NB-IoT, dual SIM, and end-to-end encryption, it enables fast and secure communication even under difficult network conditions. Supplemented by functions such as delivery receipts, tactical feedback, GPS emergency calls, and man-down functionality, the system is particularly suitable for fire departments, rescue services, industry, hospitals, and other safety-critical areas of operation.

APPLICATIONS

The F.R.E.D. pager offers the greatest benefit for organizations that:

  • require reliable and fail-safe alerting around the clock,
  • need to inform emergency forces or employees quickly and specifically,
  • rely on secure two-way communication in real time,
  • want to reliably transmit critical events even with limited network availability,
  • want to digitize and modernize their alerting and communication processes.

This makes the F.R.E.D. pager particularly interesting for fire departments, rescue services, hospitals, industrial companies, energy suppliers, as well as authorities and organizations with security tasks (BOS), where fast, secure, and reliable alerting in the event of an emergency or malfunction is crucial.

Frequently Asked Questions – FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions.
These notes and answers will certainly help you:

Yes, communication takes place via secure IP connections and VPN tunnels in a closed user group, which guarantees a very high level of security.

Alerting with GroupAlarm and Pager F.R.E.D. is fast, especially for large-scale operations. LTE-M and NB-IoT as well as the use of multiple mobile networks enable reliable and fast delivery of alarms, even in the event of short-term loss of reception.

Cellular networks offer nearly seamless coverage, which is particularly advantageous in peripheral areas and difficult topography. Private radio networks often have problems here, especially in remote areas. In addition, the LTE-M and NB-IoT cellular standards used by the F.R.E.D. pager offer better building penetration.

Thanks to mobile technology and a roaming dual SIM solution in the international LTE CAT M1 standard, Pager F.R.E.D. offers outstanding redundancy. While its own radio networks are limited in their range, the pager can flexibly log into the strongest available mobile network, which means it can always be reached. For even more redundancy, additional accessibility options such as app, call, SMS and e-mail are available via GroupAlarm.

Communication is secured by the patented IP-based data protocol. Encrypted messages and VPN tunnels guarantee the authenticity, integrity and confidentiality of data transmission.

The F.R.E.D. pager enables genuine two-way communication with acknowledgement of receipt and user feedback after alarming. Continuous status messages improve monitoring and facilitate fault detection.

Although the acquisition costs for GroupAlarm and Pager F.R.E.D. initially appear high, the total cost of ownership is lower. Using existing mobile networks also eliminates the cost of setting up and maintaining your own infrastructure.

You can obtain the alerting system, consisting of GroupAlarm and the F.R.E.D. pager, through GroupAlarm and HK.DIGITAL GmbH.
