Mutualink Government Services
Supplier to the US Department of Homeland Security’s Interoperable Gateway System
Committed to helping Federal partners connect within, among and between agencies using the Interoperable Gateway System
Mutualink offers a secure, flexible and adaptable communications system for federal agencies via the Interoperable Gateway System (IGS). Mutualink’s mission is to provide interoperability solutions to federal, state, and local partners for seamless real-time communications within, among, and between agencies. Our all-hazards incident management platform supports optimal intra- and inter-component daily and emergency communications.
Voice is connected over any radio source. Video from cameras and mobile devices is bridged. Text messages and data files are shared between individuals. Collaborating agencies provide real-time communications.
Tested, deployed, and in operation throughout the world, Mutualink provides advanced real-time situational awareness through seamless radio, video and data communications.
