Sonim Technologies has unveiled a new XP3 Sentinel mobile phone, which is custom-designed for vertical markets including energy, utilities, construction, security, forestry and logistics sectors, to keep remote workers safe while in isolated and hazardous environments.
The XP3 Sentinel phone provides an end-to-end safety offering that also includes an emergency response call centre and uses the voice and data capabilities of a mobile network operator, the company claims.
According to Sonim Technologies, the XP3 Sentinel is engineered to resist high temperature, water, and meets the military-level MIL-810F certification for resistance to humidity, salt, shock and heat. Its designed keypad can be used with gloved or wet hands, while its 110 decibel speakers can be heard over machinery or sirens.
In addition, the XP3 Sentinel features risk management buttons, simplifying the user interface and requiring no menu selections by the user.
Bob Plaschke, CEO of Sonim Technologies, said: "No matter how harsh the situation, the Sonim XP3 Sentinel is the ultimate safety phone for Lone Workers in extreme environments.
"Featuring high performance GPS, dedicated emergency alarm buttons, and a ‘man-down’ motion sensor that can detect impact, tilt, free fall and no-movement, the Sonim XP3 Sentinel has been configured to work hand-in-glove with the advanced 24×7 monitoring services of our partners."
