                         The ARES/RACES Field HAM Communication Console                          was custom built for Cooper University Hospital's Southern Region MCC to operate as an independent communications hub for for emergency response.                         
                         
                         
                        
                         
                         
                        
                         
                         Scenario:                          
 When Hurricane Sandy blew through New Jersey in October of 2012, it's destructive winds and floods knocked out both power and communication systems. A significant number of cell and radio towers were either damaged or without transmission power leaving emergency responders without the ability to communicate with dispatch, hospitals, and outside assisting agencies.                          
                         
                         
                         
                        
                         
                         Response: Institute HAM radio and volunteer operators into the disaster management plan.                         
                        
                        
 
                      
 

                     
                    
                   
                   
                    
                     
                      



                      
                        
                        Problem: MCC Coordinators knew what type of equipment was needed to fulfill this mandate, but struggled to find a delivery system. Custom emergency response communication trailers are expensive to build, bulky to store, and accrue annual maintenance, registration and storage fees.                        
 
                       
During disaster response, trailers would have difficulty managing washed out or debris covered roads and responders would be forced to operate in parking lots exposed to the elements and separated from the command centers usually deployed to interior locations.                       


                     
                    
                   
                   
                    
                     
                      
 
 

                      
                        
                        Solution:                         The PodRunner™ Workstation designed to a custom specifications with the ability to operate independently of the power grid allowing HAM radio operators to strategically communicate between each other, the hospitals and external agencies.

                             The PodRunner™ from Rescue 42 is a new way to move gear and equipment quickly and easily. The industrial strength cart has a scissor lift built into the frame which enables one person to mount it on to a standard 2" trailer hitch - up to 600 lbs! Once mounted, the wheels pull up off the ground eliminating the speed, road and registration restrictions of a trailer.                             
                             
                             
                            
                             
                             Upon arrival at your destination, just pop the PodRunner™ off your hitch and roll it wherever it is needed.                              Agile and narrow, the unit fits through standard sized doorways and into most elevators, making them versatile both indoors and out.
