Where Buffalo Computer Graphics fits in the communications industry

Customers pick us for one of six reasons. Most end up using more than one over time.

1. Radio and VoIP operator training

Standards-aligned training for maritime and public safety comms operators. Our GMDSS simulation trains and certifies Global Maritime Distress and Safety System operators, and VoIP marine communication training prepares crews for IP-based bridge and shore-side comms.

2. Radar and data interface engineering

Buffalo Computer Graphics builds and licenses the interfaces that move radar, navigation and sensor data between systems. This includes ASTERIX radar interfaces, the NMEA 2000 translator and OEM work such as the Raytheon Synapsis interface. Full range on network-interfaced radar simulators.

3. Emergency communication systems for public safety

For agencies running public safety comms, Buffalo Computer Graphics delivers unified emergency communication systems built on DLAN. One console handles mass notification software, mass communication software and interagency coordination, backed by the Situation Report module for audit and after-action.

4. Mass notification and public alerting through IPAWS

Buffalo Computer Graphics is an approved IPAWS integration partner. We build and integrate IPAWS alerting and notification systems that dispatch Wireless Emergency Alerts and EAS messages, and we deploy them into agencies at scale, as with New York State Enhanced Communications. Our mass notification system links every alert to the incident record, no separate tool to reconcile.

5. Custom communications engineering

When a stock product does not exist, we build it. Our custom engineering practice has delivered specialized comms hardware and software for federal, defense and commercial customers. See the portfolio.

6. Network and outage coordination

For NOCs and field operations teams, DLAN incident management software coordinates outage response, crew tracking and mutual aid. Field crews use the DLAN Mobile Responder app. Command staff run the incident through ICS-compliant Incident Action Plans (IAP software) using the same ICS software workflow every mutual-aid partner already knows.

 

Who we serve in the communications industry

Wireless carriers, wireline and fiber operators, cable and broadband providers, satellite and broadcast operators, tower companies, maritime and shore-side radio operators, defense and coast guard communications commands, emergency alerting authorities and public safety broadband agencies. Also see government and military operations and utilities and energy.

 

Why customers pick Buffalo Computer Graphics

40+ years building this specific class of technology, in the US, with in-house engineers who can pick up the phone. Nothing here is repackaged from a third party.
