Minnesota Public Safety Interoperable Communications Conference
Tuesday, April 17 - 1:30 p.m.
Managing Transition to ARMER
APCO P25 digital radio is becoming increasingly popular as a communications tool for public safety agencies throughout the world. This session will provide an overview of the current state of P25 and how it differs from analog radios most users may be familiar with. Firstly, the session will review the relevant P25 standards, interfaces and certification bodies and regimes. Secondly, the session will address implications for decision makers: interoperability is about more than just open standards. The session will also review reasons why sometimes different manufacturers’ equipment does not work on a P25 system, and the issues encountered in implementing a multi-vendor P25 network. The significance of the P25 Compliance Assessment Program (P25 CAP) will be explained as an example of how the industry is addressing interoperability issues. Finally we will discuss practical gains and experience from agencies that have sourced terminals from multiple vendors.
