Dispatcher terminals

Embedded design, passive cooling, no moving parts

Touch Monitor 15” The dispatcher terminal units MD-Ti15 and MD-Ti10 are compact Ambiant noise suppression (noise gating) and have small footprint on the desktop. The client applications Integrated acoustic shock protection are largely hardware independent, which greatly reduces lifecycle Acoustic Echo-cancellation (AEC) for hands-free operation costs. For mission critical networks, the MCN.dispatcher is a Inclination mechanism: adjustment from 25 °C to 65 °C future-proof solution. In addition to the MCX call, data and video Desk or VESA Mount services, the MCN.dispatcher also provides a large set of Handset with PTT button (broadband) Hand free speakers supplementary services. The MCN.dispatcher gives the user the (two speaker integrated within MD-Ti15) freedom to log on to any terminal and take over the corresponding Gooseneck microphone (broadband) roles of its functions (roles management).

Transportation (Airports, Railways, Public Transports, Ports and container terminals, etc…) Use case: Customer is looking for a solution to replace obsolete communication systems such as TETRA and at the same time to implement a broadband network that can be used to support various services like remote monitoring and maintenance at specific areas such as level crossing, shutting and other localized operations fields.

Energy (Nuclear & Hydraulic power plants, Oil & Gaz) and factories Use case: Power plants are often still using multiple telephone old technologies like Tetra which are not able to deal with new use cases (video streaming, increasing numbers of sensors). The 4G Kickstarter platform will bring quick and easy implementation benefits with its standard form factor and very limited footprint. It however also permits a secured multi core architecture model deployment which will help customer to ensure autonomy and resiliency and bringing network interworking.

Logistics, Local authorities Use case : Customer is looking to implement and operate a private broadband network that will allow to deploy IIoT solutions for monitoring and tracking of assets such as agricultural machinery or livestock WMH -
