04  ·  The system

One system. Three connected components.

  • Waterproof wristband

    A discreet guest device with a simple SOS action, designed for wear in water and around the property.

  • Property communication network

    A site-based network designed to extend alert coverage into resort environments where conventional connectivity may be limited.

  • Centralized dashboard

    A shared operational view for active alerts, location information, status updates, and incident records.

Tailor-made for Maldives resort SOPs.

05  ·  Operational value

Designed around resort operations

MagEdge gives response teams a more direct path from guest alert to coordinated action, while giving leadership a clearer structure for deployment and oversight.
