Cisco Systems has started up a new program called SWAT to integrate all kinds of emergency communications, such as 911 emergency dialing, radio interoperability, satellite, wireless, weather alerts and video.



IP based SWAT program carries Cisco Instant and Mobile Integrated Communications Solution(IMICS) to assist police, fire and other emergency response agencies for the timely installment of VoIP, Web connectivity and wireless hotspot capabilities.



Cisco’s SWAT also provides latest and neighborhood-specific weather information through a Cisco partnership with AWS Convergence Technologies Inc. It runs the WeatherBug monitoring service.



Cisco claims that its SWAT program provides a mobile video kit for video surveillance and conferencing, and a field-deployable 911 service.
