  • NXU Roip Link to Eliminate Voice-Grade Leased Line
    Application Note: AN-3001-3 NXU RoIP Link to Eliminate Voice-Grade Leased Line Purpose This Application Note will describe a method at which Network Extension Units (NXUs) can be utilized on an existing digital network to eliminate costly Voice-Grade Leased Lines. Introduction Voice-Grade Leased Lines are regularly used in public safety land-mobile radios systems as dedicated baseband communication links between two remote points. Leased-Lines are also known as: Tie Lines, Wireline, Dedicated Line, Private Line, and Bell 3002, to name a few. This symmetric telecommunications link, consisting of a 2-Wire or 4-Wire path, can tie a dispatch console to a basestation, for example, or provide connectivity between radios or drop repeaters separated by many miles. Unlike dialup voice-grade switched-circuit PSTN telephone lines, these leased lines provide 24-hour, full-period connectivity, and reliability by detouring traditional switch- circuits at the telephone central office (CO). The following example is a typical leased-line dedicated link between a dispatch console and a remote basestation. Leased-Line Link Leased Lines Dispatch Basestation Console Depending upon the service provider the end-user can expect a virtual point-to-point link that encompass microwave, copper, optical fiber, and even satellite links. In any case, whichever methods are used to facilitate this reliable connection, the link is transparent to the end-user. Bell 3002 is a common provision for voice-grade leased-lines in public safety communications systems. Some of the specifications are as follows: 2-Wire or 4-Wire 600 Ω Impedance Audio Profile: 300- to 3000-Hz Frequency Shift: ±5 Hz Control: Tone Only, no DC Control due to lack of hard wire Raytheon 5800 Departure Drive Raleigh, NC 27616 919.790.1011 © Raytheon Company.

  • Telecommunications Technology and Native Americans: Opportunities and Challenges
    Telecommunications Technology and Native Americans: Opportunities and Challenges August 1995 OTA-ITC-621 Recommended Citation: U.S. Congress, Office of Technology Assessment, Telecommunications Technology and Native Americans: Opportunities and Challenges, OTA-ITC-621 (Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office, August 1995). oreword elecommunications Technology and Native Americans: Opportuni- ties and Challenges examines the potential of telecommunications to improve the socioeconomic conditions of Native Americans— American Indians, Alaska Natives, and Native Hawaiians—living in rural, remote areas, and to help them maintain their cultures and exercise control over their lives and destinies. The report discusses the opportunities for Native Americans to use tele- communications (including computer networking, videoconferencing, multimedia, digital and wireless technologies, and the like) in the realms of culture, education, health care, economic development, and governance. It also explores the challenges and barriers to realizing these opportunities, notably the need to improve the technology infrastructure (and access to it), technical training, leadership, strategic partnerships, and telecommunica- tions planning on Indian reservations and in Alaska Native villages and Na- tive Hawaiian communities. Prepared at the request of the Senate Committee on Indian Affairs, this is the first federal government report on Native American telecommunica- tions. It provides a framework for technology planning and policy actions by Congress and relevant federal agencies, as well as by Native leaders and governments. Native Americans were involved throughout the study. OTA made site visits to six states and consulted with Native leaders and technolo- gy experts in about two dozen other states. Computer networking was used extensively for research and outreach, and OTA developed the Native American Resource Page for this study, a World Wide Web home page ac- cessible via OTA Online (http://www.ota.gov/nativea.html).

    DRAFT MMAAGG RReeggiioonnaall CCoommmmuunniittyy NNeettwwoorrkk SSttuuddyy Final Report (Working Paper No. 8 / No. 9) Task 4 – Implementation Plan Prepared by: March, 2003 091452001 DRAFT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Maricopa Association of Governments (MAG) is conducting a feasibility study for the deployment of a Regional Community Network (RCN), in part to meet the following objectives: Mitigation of traffic congestion through telecommunications; More reliable and secure telecommunications; Open architecture and easier system expansion; Interconnection among public agencies; and Cost savings. The RCN study is comprised of the following tasks: Conduct Telecommunications Technology and Literature Review (Task 2.1); Conduct Review of Member Agencies’ Needs and of Regional Community and Local WAN Studies and Plans (Task 2.2); Conduct Community Survey (Task 2.3); Conduct Business and Educational Needs Assessment (Task 2.4); Conduct Telecommunications/Utility Industry Review (Task 2.5); Conduct National Installation Review (Task 2.6); Determine Regional Community Network Needs (Task 3.1); Identify and Evaluate Regional Public Sector Network Alternatives (Task 3.2); Develop Recommendation for a Regional Public Sector Network (Task 3.3); and Develop an Implementation Plan (Task 4). A summary of the analysis, findings, and recommendations associated with these tasks is provided in subsequent sections of this report. Regional Telecommunications Needs Regional telecommunications needs include community needs, member agency needs, and the need for private and public sector partnering. These needs stem in part from the rapid pace of population and employment growth in the region. This growth not only facilitates economic development and redevelopment in the region, but also impacts the quality of life for its residents.
