Pilot Program
Evaluate Emergency Response Infrastructure in Your Environment
The Punch Rescue Pilot Program gives K–12 schools and districts a risk-free, practical way to evaluate our emergency communication infrastructure during any conditions.
What the Pilot Program Is
You deploy Punch Rescue in your buildings and use it during everyday operations, drills, and activities. Test it during network congestion, power uncertainties, and the operational constraints that exist in your real environments.
This is not a demo or a limited trial. The pilot includes the same infrastructure, hardware, software, and support used in full deployments.
While designed primarily for K–12, this is also available for other organizations like higher education and healthcare.
What’s Included in the Pilot
Each pilot works to provide redundancy and network independence by including a standard deployment:
- 25 Rescue Cards
- 10 Rescue Repeaters
- 1 Rescue Base Station
- Punch Rescue Software Platform
- Indoor Mapping
- 911 Integration
Rescue Card
Rescue Repeater
Rescue Base Station
Punch Rescue Software Platform
Why Infrastructure Matters
During emergencies, Wi-Fi networks lose power, cellular networks congest, and software-only systems fail.
Punch Rescue is built to endure with long battery backup in devices and gateways, private networks that don’t rely on public infrastructure, and strong building-wide reach (regardless of device ownership).
The pilot lets you see this at play within your own network constraints, power realities, and building layouts.
What the Pilot Helps You Demonstrate
Beyond system performance, the pilot provides documentation that proves preparedness. When boards, regulators, or stakeholders ask what you did to be ready, you’ll have concrete evidence.
- System Testing Logs
- Drill Participation Records
- Training Completion Tracking
- After-Action Reports
K–12 Schools and Districts
Pilot runs through July 1 at no cost. No obligation to continue. If you choose to move forward, typical agreements are 3- or 5-year terms.
Non-K–12 Organizations
Three-month pilot at no cost, with the option to continue under standard terms or discontinue.
