P25 LAND MOBILE RADIO NETWORK FOR PUBLIC SAFETY/

In today’s Public Safety environment of limited budgets, it is imperative to have a

Land Mobile Radio (LMR) solution that is open, standards-compliant, and gives you

the freedom to choose the right equipment at the right price without proprietary

restrictions. That solution is the ® Radio digital trunked P25 network from

Airbus DS Communications. VESTA Radio provides the freedom of choice needed to put

you in control of your network, operationally and financially.

The ® Radio solution from Airbus DS Communications is

standards-compliant, completely open and the industry’s only true

non-proprietary P25 network core. It fully embraces the P25 goals

of interoperability and component competition, providing “true

choice” to customers such as the Royal Canadian Mounted Police

(RCMP) O Division, the City of Richardson, TX, Buncombe County,

NC, and others who have utilized competitive procurements to

eliminate the proprietary premiums some vendors place on radios,

consoles and other non-core components. Plus, our support of

Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) standards, including IP, SIP

and RTP, makes it possible for you to use off-the-shelf switches,

routers and other network components, leveraging existing network

assets and further breaking away from the proprietary hardware

and software restrictions of other vendors.

At Airbus DS Communications, we take our promise to keep

people connected when it matters most very seriously. That’s why

the VESTA Radio solution is built with leading edge technology

We Embrace The FreedomOF INTEROPERABILITY/

and a distributed architecture, providing greater resiliency than

that offered by a centralized architecture. For example, the VESTA

Radio solution’s controllers can be deployed in a geo-redundant

configuration, ensuring survivability in the event of man-made or

natural disasters. Plus, the VESTA Radio solution allows continued

wide area trunked and dispatch operations over the IP network,

even in the event of multiple failures including the loss of all system

controllers.

The distributed architecture of the VESTA Radio solution also

makes it ideal for a wide variety of network configurations and

operational requirements. Supporting multiple frequency bands and

both simulcast and multicast modes of operation, it can easily be

scaled from a single site to multiple sites in order to best meet your

expansion needs.

IP-based from the consoles all the way through to the repeaters,

the VESTA Radio solution simplifies network management and

serviceability, letting you remotely monitor and manage system

assets to reduce the time required to correct a problem. The IP-

based product is unique in its ability to support the addition of new

functions and applications with software upgrades only – providing

a simple and cost-effective path for the integration of new features

and technologies, such as support for P25 Phase 2, without the

cost of replacing the existing hardware infrastructure.

Moreover, Airbus DS Communications’ approach of making all your

system interfaces open helps you avoid situations where vendors

can choose to end of life the system or portions of the system. With

our business model, all interfaces are open, allowing competitive

procurements at any time, and software upgrades and hardware

refreshes are part of regular maintenance.

Airbus DS Communications continually works to create smarter

ways to keep all our communities safe. With its open, standards-

based design and distributed, IP-centric architecture, the VESTA

Radio solution is no exception. Let us show you how it can provide

your operation the best overall Public Safety and economic value

now and in the years ahead.

“The VESTA® Radio solution provides Public Safety operations with reliable and interoperable communications, enabling them to demonstrate true cost consciousness during this difficult economic time.”

– Bob Freinberg, Chief Executive Officer, Airbus DS Communications
