Within just seven months, SolidRun delivered a comprehensive, high-value solution: we partnered with the customer to define and develop a custom carrier board based on the RZ/G2L SoM, integrating all requested security features. Beyond hardware design, we performed advanced thermal simulations, created a fully branded enclosure, and ensured rigorous testing and certification. Finally, we accelerated time-to-market by ramping up to mass production of over 5,000 units in only three months—providing a complete, turnkey solution from concept to scale.

tactical and emergency services communication bubble

Tactical and Emergency Services Communication Bubble
A tactical communication bubble is a rapidly deployable, self-contained wireless network—often leveraging 5G or similar mobile technologies—designed for military while an emergency services communication bubble is a rapidly deployable, self-contained wireless network designed to provide secure, high-speed connectivity in disaster zones or areas without infrastructure. Both establish a secure, private, ad hoc cellular network that provides high-speed, low-latency connectivity in areas without fixed infrastructure. This coverage enables real-time communication between drones, vehicles, and command posts, while supporting critical applications such as video streaming, AI-driven analytics, and voice communication. Compact and portable, it ensures reliable connectivity in dynamic, mission-critical environments.
