communications & interoperability
unified communications solutions:
Interoperability between any analog or digital voice equipment
Unified Communications represent a dynamic worldwide shift from hardware-based solutions to standards- / IP-based software solutions that extend the reach of and revitalize legacy communication assets. IP-based solutions also offer improved operational efficiencies at much lower overall acquisition costs, lower lifecycle costs, as well as providing technological obsolescence protection.
Key Components of Unified Communications
TechStart utilizes a standards-based approach in designing unified communications solutions, be it for public safety or business continuity. Now, communications between disparate devicessuch as two-way radios (regardless of manufacturer or frequency type), iDEN Push-To-Talk (PTT) phones & radios, traditional telephony devices, IP phones, PBXs, cellular & smart phones, networked desktop or notebook PCs with microphonescan be achieved with less costly implementations than conventional hardware-only solutions.
Features, Benefits and Results
- Lower capital expense cost and implementation timelines
- Interoperability between analog and digital two-way radios
- Media rich operational simplicity, plus on-demand messaging, audio & video media
- Easy upgrades and add on with software downloads (no equipment to replace)
- Dynamically scalable platforms with unsurpassed recording options
- Improves Situational Awareness (SA) and shortens decision cycles
- Network-centric, geographically-independent communications
