JERSEY CITY, N.J., Oct. 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- goTenna, the world's leading mobile mesh networking company, is announcing a strategic partnership with EVERYWHERE Communications to transform global connectivity for shared situational data, which is essential for critical communications in the world's most austere environments. 

Together, goTenna and EVERYWHERE have combined their advanced technologies to form a solution designed to provide assured situational awareness data from mobile mesh networks from any location on Earth. This innovative collaboration delivers force-tracking, location data, secure messaging, and one-touch SOS functionality – while providing beyond-line-of-site connectivity to ensure mission success. Both companies have thousands of units operating within defense, intelligence, public safety, and law enforcement agencies throughout the US and abroad, making the joint solution immediately relevant to customers that leverage the TAK ecosystem for enhanced situational awareness.

EVERYWHERE combines the commercial-off-the-shelf inReach Mini2 from Garmin, custom AES-256 encrypted firmware, and their interoperable software to connect and protect personnel in degraded communications environments. Coupled with goTenna's Pro X2 lightweight narrowband mesh radio, the solution enables TAK device connectivity and communications reach-back in off-grid environments, offering mission-critical communications in austere, highly contested, and denied environments.

"We're proud to partner with EVERYWHERE Communications, equipping operators with the most advanced, low-cost, size, weight, and power-efficient communication solutions available in our industry," said Ari Schuler, goTenna's CEO. "EVERYWHERE's capabilities complement goTenna, and our partnership will enable global shared situational awareness for warfighters, mission operators, and first responders."
