IP-basedFAQCan we use our existing computer network to create an IP-baseddispatch system, or do we need to build a new one?The answer to this question depends on the IP dispatchsystem application. In many cases we can use existing IPnetworks, but in other cases, like public safety applications,you may want to think about creating a secure, standalonecommunications network. Here are a few things to considerwith regard to IP dispatch solutions:• How much traffic is on my existing network andhow much bandwidth is available to dedicate to acommunications solution?• Does your network support multicasting? Multicasting isan important element in making our dispatch solutions aseffective as possible. We can work with non-multicastingnetworks but there are some limitations.• Do you want to connect and communicate between multiplelocations or installations via an IP dispatch network? If so,that means you have to have a good network connectionbetween them. Anywhere you have a network connectioncould be a potential location for communications equipment.If you have offices across the country that are all connectedvia a network, you could communicate between them usingtwo-way radios because the network ties them together.How much bandwidth will the dispatch system use on the network?With a C-Soft low-bit vocoder, there can be a bandwidthsavings of up to 30 percent. This depends on how manyradios and dispatch positions you want on the system. Thebreakdown is simple: every device you connect to the systemthat operates in simplex mode requires 50 kBits of availablebandwidth. Multiply that times the number of radios you haveon the system—eight radios means 8 x 50 kBit or 400 kBitfor effective simultaneous communications. Always make surethe network has the capacity to account for the maximumpossible number of simultaneous transmissions.How important are SIP capabilities in a dispatch system?The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is a signaling protocolused for establishing sessions in an IP network. For aradio dispatcher, SIP is one way of bringing control oftelephone onto the console, be it a simple two-way call ora collaborative conference session. This allows dispatchto control phone calls incoming and outgoing phone callsand use features such as hold/unhold, call forwarding,conferencing, voice mail, and call transfer. One of the mostimportant features is the crosspatch capability of radioand phone. Now a police officer on a radio channel can beconnected to a phone call to coordinate activities or assistdispatch with a critical situation. SIP can be configured touse existing switches, so a large number of lines are availableif required. SIP is becoming an important part of dispatchconsoles. Like the IP console SIP is a powerful, yet simple toolwhich is also very flexible and scalable.I have two dispatch locations, but can only afford to update oneconsole to IP. Will I be able to communicate with the old console?In most cases, <strong>Telex</strong> will be able to interface an IP-223 orgateway to each channel at the location where the radioswould be interfaced to the analog console, usually the CentralElectronics Bank (CEB). The IP-223 is configured in consolemode, and allows the channels configured this way to be put onthe same IP network system as the new IP console. Through thenetwork, the analog console can be monitered and operatedlike it was another IP console. The flexibility of this designprovides a way for an end user to start a migration path to acomplete IP change over when replacing the dispatch cosoles inmultiple locations. When required, this concept also provides avery cost effective backup console to existing analog consoles.4 | www.telex.com/radiodispatch

C-Soft is the industry’s most flexible and capable softwaredispatch console — perfect application for any dispatchenvironment. C-Soft delivers all of the dispatch capabilitiesyou expect, while also giving you the flexibility that only anIP-based software console can provide: simple and quickdeployment in the field, easy back-up of communicationsassets, and the ability to save multiple configurationson a single computer. This proven application has beendeployed in communication centers around the world, inapplications from 911 dispatch to mobile command centersand transportation management.<strong>Telex</strong> C-Soft: A Proven Life-Saver for Okanogan County 911 CenterAs the third largest county in the continental United States,Okanogan County spans 5,281 square miles of ruggednorth-central Washington terrain that includes parts ofthe Cascade Range and the Columbia River Basin. With apopulation of about 40,000 dispersed over such a largearea, effective distance communication is critical at timesof emergency. “Our number-one focus is life-safety,” saysEmergency Manager Scott Miller of the Okanogan CountySheriff’s Office. “We cannot afford to have our radiosystems go down at any time.”Having built its emergency communications capabilitiesaround a <strong>Telex</strong> C-Soft platform several years ago, thecounty’s Emergency Management Department has hadplenty of opportunity to determine whether the systemmeets requisite standards for reliability and performance.The verdict? “It’s been solid as a rock for five years,” Millersays. “We’ve had absolutely no problems.”The dispatcher tells the responding unit what they know,and the unit gives the dispatcher status updates as theyrespond. All of this back-and-forth with the radios thattransmit over the air and talk to the Kenwood field radios isrouted through C-Soft and the IP-223s.”The C-Soft system supports flexible signal routing and thetailoring of user interfaces to custom needs. And with its<strong>Radio</strong> over IP (RoIP) architecture, all the traffic that wouldpreviously have required a multitude of analog audio linesbetween the dispatcher’s station and the radio transceiverscan now be handled over a single CAT-5 Ethernet cable.ROIP also gives the county far greater extensibility toremote locations. “We have a control station up on amountaintop,” Miller says, “and by putting in a networkswitch we were able to extend the network to that locationvia microwave, which is far more reliable than leasing a linefrom a phone provider.”Headquartered in Okanogan, the county seat, the Sheriff’sOffice operates the county’s 911 communications center,receiving all 911 calls and dispatching all first-respondersto in-county emergencies. The facility is equipped withthe IP-based C-Soft radio dispatch and signaling consoleas well as 25 IP-223 dual IP remote adapter panels, whichhandle conversion between digital and analog signals.The system also includes a number of DSP-223 toneremoteadapters, as well as two <strong>Telex</strong> Network Recorderswhich perform real-time call recording, supports remotemonitoring, and includes a searchable database for storageand retrieval of call information. “We really like the abilityfor supervisors to be able to call up recordings fromanywhere in the County IP network,” adds Miller.“We handle all of our public safety radio communicationsvia the C-Soft console,” Miller continues; “it’s how wecommunicate with all first responders in the county. The911 call comes in, the dispatcher takes the call, determinesthe nature of the problem, and then uses C-Soft to eithercommunicate directly with a specific first-responder unit,such as a nearby ambulance, or to send out a general page.At the time of the county’s initial purchase, RoIP was stillrelatively new in the radio dispatch field, which meant thatthere wasn’t a long track record to go by when selectinga manufacturer. “Looking back,” Miller says, “it’s now clearthat we made the right choice. We are very, very pleasedwith the C-Soft system. The system remains state-of-the artbecause <strong>Telex</strong> is continually developing the product withupdates and advancements that they have not charged usfor. Plus, <strong>Telex</strong>’s support has been outstanding, and we areconfident that they will still be here to support us five orten years down the road.”“The bottom line for us,” Miller continues, “is that we usethe C-Soft system in a critical life-safety setting, and we’vehad five years of running 24/7 without a hitch. That’s quitea testament to the system. We would highly recommend itto any other 911 center.”www.telex.com/radiodispatch | 7

The ADHB-4 works exclusivelywith the <strong>Telex</strong> C-Soft console version 5.000 or later.It processes audio internally and communicates withC-Soft to transfer the signal via USB, which eliminatesdependence on the PC sound card. This allows users topurchase their own computer. While the current HB3+works with two speakers, the ADHB-4 supports up to sixspeakers per position.The ADHB-4 is the heart of the C-Soft console dispatchposition. It removes the barrier between users of differentPC audio platforms and enables them to relay vital, lifesavinginformation. To further enhance the flexibilityof the system, the ADHB-4 works with most desktopsystems running the latest Microsoft Windows 7. It is alsobackwards-compatible with Windows XP. In addition,the ADHB-4 includes all connections necessary forfull integration into the most common radio dispatchconfigurations.One of the most striking features of the ADHB-4 is itsfull-color LCD screen. This display hosts a rich interfacewhich provides the user with at-a-glance system statusupdates. With its Web capability, the ADHB-4 can also bemanaged via web interface. These advanced configurationoptions will bring peace of mind to dispatch operators,enabling them to focus on the critical task at hand. Ournew Remote Headset Box (RHB) allows up to two optionRHB’s to connect to the ADHB-4. This allows other usersto listen to the dispatch position (ie: supervisor, seconddispatcher).“<strong>Telex</strong> ROIP heads for the Stratosphere Casino in Las Vegas“Our PBX operators need to stay focused on the phonesand providing guest service rather than navigatingscreens or using complicated technology,” Lawney adds.“The interoperability between the phones, the GUI onthe computer screen and the IP-223 systems behind thescenes is as user-friendly as it is technologically seamless.The operators have the usual buttons that you would seeon a regular radio-base station on their screens and thechannels are arranged so that they can see them clearlywithout scrolling; they don’t need to do anything beyondclick on a screen button to view, scan, and send the callmessages out.”“Working with McIntosh and <strong>Telex</strong> was a greatexperience.
