daily radio dispatch operations, and allows organizations to rapidly respond to

.
IPICS dissolves communication silos between disparate land mobile radio systems and devices such as mobile
phones, landline phones, IP phones, and PC clients-users. This supports interoperable communications among
users of all devices, wherever they are located. IPICS provides flexible and scalable communication
interoperability that enhances the value of existing and new radio, telephony, and IP communications networks.
Features and Benefits
The Cisco IPICS Dispatch Console is a state-of-the-art, end-to-end radio dispatching solution designed for
mission-critical radio communications. The Dispatch Console client is the vital link between dispatchers and field
personnel, helping coordinate field response and helping to ensure personnel safety. Built on IPICS technology, it
extends existing push-to-talk (PTT) radio channels or broadcast networks, so that users with a variety of
communication devices, such as landline phones, cell phones, IP phones, and satellite phones, can share
information and participate in an event. The Dispatch Console simplifies daily operations, and allows organizations
to respond to incidents and emergencies rapidly.
The Dispatch Console provides control of radio resources through an easy-to-use on-screen interface. It allows
users to monitor and coordinate incident management responses for emergencies and day-to-day operations
across multiple agencies, jurisdictions, departments, and incompatible radio systems.
Command and control tactical dispatchers do not have to rely on multiple portable radio units to dispatch from the
field. Instead, they can be equipped with a laptop PC that provides full dispatch console functionality. An intuitive
GUI provides access to the following radio features:
●
