Our Company
Vital Alert Communication Inc. is a Canadian company headquartered in a suburb of Toronto, Ontario, and incorporated in 2002. We have a U.S. subsidiary, Vital Alert Technologies, Inc., in Cleveland. The company is backed by a leading Canadian wealth management firm and private investors.
We build products which enable emergency and day-to-day data and voice communications in some of the most difficult communications environments in the world - tunnels, sewer pipes, subways, mines, buildings, and fire rescue, to name a few. Our C1000 mine and tunnel links use magnetic induction, VLF waves, and advanced digital communications techniques to wirelessly enable 2 way voice, data, and text communications in underground and other shielded environments. Because of the inherent limitations of such low frequency signals, both range (1000 feet) and bandwidth (1kbps) are limited. However, in the event of an emergency, our product often represents a more survivable option than existing leaky feeder or mesh systems alone. It can also be more rapidly and cost-effectively deployed than a wired leaky feeder system or complex wireless mesh network making it ideal to link new and hard-to-service areas underground to existing networks.
We stay close to our customers to clearly understand the problems they are trying to solve, and we persist in solving some of the most difficult technical challenges in the communications realm. Please contact us today if we can help with your underground communications needs.
