Integrated Land Mobile Radio, Voice Dispatch, and Mapping Solution Now Available for Public Safety Dispatch Environments

LEXINGTON, S.C., Aug. 17, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The capabilities of the Tait Communications P25 Land Mobile Radio (LMR) platform have been extended through collaboration between Tait Communications, Avtec, and Tallysman Wireless - three leading suppliers of LMR solutions.

This collaboration has delivered a new solution for public safety customers called EnableLocation. The solution enables Avtec's Scout™ radio console system to receive and display voice, mapping, and automatic vehicle location (AVL) data from Tallysman's TruFleet™ software transmitted by Tait P25 radios.

EnableLocation was developed to meet the demands of our public safety customers who require the enhanced functionality of a wireline connection for radio dispatching.

The Avtec Scout console offers direct radio over IP (RoIP) connectivity to the Tait P25 radio system, as well as to the Tallysman TruFleet application. This allows users to contact mobile subscribers for position, to send and receive free form text or status messages, and to perform voice dispatching with advanced services like encryption and emergency alerting via the Scout console.

"Collaboration is the key to delivering innovative solutions and revolutionizing the industry," said Tallysman Director of Wireless Infrastructure Products John Seymour. "We have established a close, trusted relationship with Avtec and Tait Communications and look forward to complementing each others' strengths and delivering value-added solutions to the industry."

Added Avtec Director of Partnerships and Alliances Michael Ridge: "The functionality of the integrated Tait, Tallysman, and Avtec solution combines the strengths of three separate offerings into a software solution that is simple to install, easy to use, and keeps pace with our customers' demanding work environments."

"The Tallysman, Avtec, and Tait partnership and testing program demonstrates our joint commitment to leading the industry in providing comprehensive communication solutions," said Ellery Hurn, product manager, partner solutions at Tait Communications.

Those attending the Association of Public Safety Communications Officials (APCO) show, which is going on now through Thursday in Washington, D.C., can learn more about this by visiting Avtec at booth No. 955 or Tait Communications at booth No. 433.
