Zetron Provides Acom P25 System to U.S. Dept. of Commerce NTIA Institute for Telecommunication Sciences

Company Representative April 25, 2012 Industry, Product & Service Announcements

Redmond, Wash.  – As part of its ongoing commitment to open standards, Zetron is supplying a two-position Acom EVO Project 25 (P25) console system to the U.S. Dept. of Commerce – National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA). The system is being used and tested at the NTIA’s Institute for Telecommunication Sciences (ITS) at Boulder, Colorado, where it was installed March 27, 2012. Zetron also trained ITS personnel on the system’s operation and maintenance. The system will be connected through the P25 Console Subsystem Interface (CSSI) over Ethernet links to live Cassidian and Raytheon infrastructures. It will remain at the site through January 30, 2013.

The project is designed to help ITS personnel gain a thorough understanding of how a console system operates within a P25 network. In addition, personnel trained on the Acom system’s operations will use the system to develop P25-compliance assessment tests.

“This collaboration with the Department of Commerce NTIA demonstrates Zetron’s ongoing commitment to P25 and our active involvement in projects that further the development, understanding, and adoption of P25-compliant technologies,” said Zetron president and CEO, Ellen O’Hara.
