The Cisco IPICS Dispatch Console integrates with virtually any analog or digital radio system, to support dynamic
PTT communications. It is compatible with almost any dispatch operation that requires radio interoperability,
including public safety, homeland security, emergency operations centers, defense, and physical security
environments.
The Dispatch Console also introduces rich media incident management support, giving dispatchers the power to
consolidate information relating to an incident and instantly share it among participants. Incident Dispatch helps
enable the sharing of multimedia data, including the following:
●
Live video sent from surveillance cameras, access control gateways and mobile clients
•
●
Archived videos, such as Flip
●
Photos
●
Alarm monitoring
●
Journal and live statuses
●
Website links to resources, such as FEMA and hazardous material databases, standard operating
procedures, and maps
When dispatch consoles reach their end-of life and parts become difficult to find, it is important to move to a state-
of-the-art dispatch console that takes advantage of current technology and is ready for future advances. The Cisco
IPICS Dispatch Console provides numerous benefits, including:
●
Comprehensive feature set, supporting the features important to a dispatcher, on an IP-based application
●
Disaster recovery mobility, as this PC-based application moves with the user anywhere there is an IP
network, unlike a legacy dispatch console that stays where it is installed
●
Radio interoperability and beyond, as it supports multi-agency talkgroups, talkgroups between disparate
radios, and talkgroups that include radios, PCs, phones, cell phones, and IP phones
●
Rich media incident management, as it moves beyond audio to support rich media talkgroups and a new
generation of mobile endpoints
●
Integrated policy engine, giving dispatchers a new set of tools that simplify notification and improve
response time
●
Smooth evolution to P25, Tetra and other radio protocols
The Cisco IPICS Dispatch Console comes in two versions; Silver and Platinum. The Silver version provides a
simple user interface, and supports basic radio and incident dispatch functions. The Platinum version includes
patch capabilities, integrated telephone, incident management, and policy management support.
