In this article, you will learn how the React Mobile Workplace Safety Platform works using our LTE/Cellular Panic Buttons and the key components to the Platform.

Our LTE/Cellular Panic Button workplace safety platform has three components which allow for a team member to immediately request assistance to their location in an emergency. The three components are: the LTE Panic Button, the Bluetooth Beacon, and the Client Portal and Responder Application.

The LTE Panic Button:

This device leverages LTE-M1 cellular network, allowing it to connect to the best cellular coverage in your area. The device has a 15 day average battery life and can be rapidly recharged by using a micro-USB cable.

The Bluetooth Beacon:

The beacons that are installed throughout the property by the React Mobile team are used to effectively capture the geolocation in the event of an emergency. They are Bluetooth and battery operated, with a battery life of up to 5 years which can be easily replaced when the battery is nearing its end of life.

The Client Portal and Responder Application:

The Client Portal can be accessed from any browser, and the application is compatible with both Apple and Android devices. From the Portal, you will be able to monitor the health of your system and will receive real time communication and location updates when an alert is in progress.

The three key components effectively communicate when an alert is activated on site. The following stages occur to summon the response team to an incident:

Stage One - Panic Button Alert Activation

The React Mobile LTE panic button allows a team member to quickly trigger a silent alert in the event of an emergency. To activate the alert, the button needs to be pressed three times in rapid succession or be pressed and held for 3 seconds.

Stage Two - Location Information

The LTE panic button communicates to the Bluetooth beacons to determine the location of the nearest beacon. The Bluetooth beacons are named to provide geolocation information within the property when an alert is triggered.

Stage Three - Alert Notification

The LTE panic button then summons immediate on-scene assistance from the internal response team by connecting to the system via a cellular network. Additionally, the LTE button also sends the location information to the Client Portal, where help is directed to the alert location.

Stage Four - Emergency Response

Once the notification is received, the response team can communicate internally using either the Client Portal or Responder Application, as they address the alert and respond to the situation.
