SOLUTION DESIGN HIGHLIGHTS

● Three (3) AXS consoles with necessary peripherals

● Three (3) 500W Tower UPSs

● One (1) Switch

● One (1) Router

AXS DISPATCH CONSOLE

AXS dispatch console positions are connected together and to the rest of the ASTRO® 25 system on an IP network through console site routers and switches. The console functions as an integrated component of the total radio system and fully participates in system-level features, such as end-to-end encryption.

The console connects directly to the radio system’s IP transport network. Audio processing, encryption, and switching intelligence for dispatch are performed within each software- based dispatch position without additional centralized electronics.

Since the network is IP-based, the system interfaces and components can be distributed physically throughout the network. An AXS Dispatch Console consists of the following elements:

● Command Central Hub

● Computer display

● Dispatch accessories

● Network equipment

Command Central Hub The CommandCentral Hub (CC Hub) is the platform on which the CommandCentral AXS Dispatch Console operates. The CC Hub contains a number of analog inputs and outputs for connecting various peripheral devices as well as a workstation class computer motherboard.

The CC Hub is also capable of FIPS 140-3 Level 3 encryption through the use of an internal Hardware Security Module (HSM) supporting end-to-end encryption between the radio user and the dispatch position. The HSM supports multiple encryption algorithms (AES, DES-OFB, and/or ADP) as well as multiple secure keys.

The PC that is internal to the CC Hub will be programmed with a Microsoft Windows based operating system (OS) image developed for the dispatch application.

Accessories The dispatch position supports multiple peripheral accessories, including a USB microphone, USB headset, and USB footswitch. The following figure shows the typical components included in a dispatch console configuration.

● One (1) Computer Display

● CommandCentral Hub

● Enhanced Integrated Instant Recall Recorder (IRR)

● Two (2) Desktop speakers

● Two (2) Headset Jacks

● Two (2) Headsets

● One (1) Desktop Microphone

● One (1) Purpose-built USB Microphone

● One (1) Footswitch

NEXT GENERATION DISPATCH EXPERIENCE

CommandCentral AXS features a highly configurable graphical user interface (GUI) that provides quick, single-view access to important information and functionalities. The browser-based GUI’s versatile folders, tabs, and scalable resources allow users to organize and configure their dispatch experience and make engagement more familiar and intuitive from shift to shift. Folders and tabs can be relocated, exposed, or overlapped as needed, giving dispatchers more control of what information they see and how they interact with those resources.

CommandCentral AXS also offers multiple options for routing audio to speakers and controlling volume levels.

CommandCentral AXS features flexible window positioning and capabilities for quick and efficient access to services such as:

● Activity Log – Provides an efficient point of reference for all incoming calls into a dispatch console , showing dispatchers detailed, searchable call information (radio resource name and call time) to enable faster and more informed response.

● Paging – Allows users to send user configured pages on radio resources. This flexible paging feature is integrated with CommandCentral AXS for both conventional and trunked radio resources, while an external paging encoder port on the CommandCentral Hub enables third-party paging encoders to send pages on the selected radio resources.

● Patch Capabilities – Enables dispatchers to set up a communication path between two or more resources that are normally unable to communicate with each other, such as trunked resources and conventional resources.

● Alert Tones – Allows dispatchers to send one of fifteen user-configurable alert tones on selected radio resources. Fifteen default .wav files are provided with the dispatch console software, but any combination of these default files may be replaced with user configured.wav files to meet specific needs.

● Channel Marker – Enables dispatchers to send a periodically repeating piece of audio on radio resources to meet the specific needs.

INTEGRATED VOICE AND DATA (IV&D)

Integrated Voice and Data (IV&D) is a P25 compliant data service that is integrated with voice services, whether Trunked or Conventional. Trunked or Conventional data, depending on the system, allows data transmission inbound from a data enabled subscriber through the ASTRO® Infrastructure to a host application in a connected Customer Enterprise Network.

Data can be transmitted outbound to the subscriber as well from the host application. The ASTRO 25 IV&D features moves data along the same IP pathways as critical communication, encrypting it as necessary.

Managing your subscriber fleet as efficiently as possible is critical for first responders to maximize their time in the field. The capability for data opens the way for enormous advances in the way your users depend on their radios. Integrated voice and data solutions include not just those that maintain the security and programming of your subscriber fleet, but innovative tools that allow first responders and their commanders to instantly communicate a clearer picture of every situation and its required response.

OVER-THE-ETHERNET KEYING

The Key Management via Over the Ethernet Keying (OTEK) feature provides the ability to manage the keys for a dispatch console or archiving interface server using only a KMF (key management facility). Distribution of the key management information to the dispatch consoles and archiving interface servers is done across the radio system’s IP network from the KMF to each dispatch console and archiving interface server.
