Fortinet and Parsec Emergency Connectivity Kit
What does your team do when the network goes down, and the site sits beyond the reach of traditional connectivity? This video introduces the Fortinet and Parsec Emergency Connectivity Kit, a rapidly deployable communications platform built in TD SYNNEX Integration Labs. See how Fortinet security, SD-WAN, and wireless technologies combine with Parsec's rugged case and patented high-gain antennas to bridge 5G, satellite, and Wi-Fi.
What is the Fortinet and Parsec Emergency Connectivity Kit (ECK)?
The Fortinet and Parsec Emergency Connectivity Kit (ECK) is a secure, portable, high-performance communications platform designed for situations where traditional network infrastructure is unavailable, damaged, or unreliable.
Built in TD SYNNEX Integration Labs, the ECK brings together:
- Fortinet security, networking, and wireless technologies
- Parsec ruggedized case design and patented high-gain antenna systems
It’s engineered for:
- Disaster response (storms, wildfires, floods, etc.)
- Tactical operations and field deployments
- Critical infrastructure continuity when primary networks are down
In practice, the ECK gives teams a rapidly deployable communications backbone so they can stay connected and secure even when local infrastructure is compromised.
Where and how can the ECK be used?
The ECK is built for mission-ready connectivity anywhere you need secure communications but can’t rely on existing infrastructure.
Common use cases include:
- Emergency response teams setting up temporary operations centers at disaster sites
- Remote or mobile operations such as field engineering, inspection teams, or temporary work sites
- Mobile command environments for public safety, defense, or critical infrastructure operators
Because it’s packaged in a rugged Parsec case with patented high-gain antennas, teams can deploy it quickly in harsh or unpredictable conditions. Once powered on, it provides a secure, high-performance network that can support voice, data, and applications needed to coordinate operations.
What connectivity and security capabilities does the ECK provide?
The ECK is designed to reimagine field connectivity by combining multiple network options with enterprise-grade security in a single portable kit.
Connectivity options include:
- 5G for high-speed mobile broadband
- Satellite for coverage when terrestrial networks are unavailable
- Wi‑Fi to connect local users and devices to the kit
On top of that, the ECK integrates Fortinet’s security and networking technologies, enabling organizations to extend their existing security posture into the field. This helps protect critical communications and data even in high-risk or unstable environments.
Together, these capabilities give organizations a reliable, secure, and rapidly deployable communications platform for continuity of operations when it matters most.
