Collaborative Design, Commissioning & Training Key to DX-Altus Success for Surf Life Saving NSW

Source: MCCResources

Surf Life Saving NSW has recently upgraded their Radio Dispatch & Management System to the DX-Altus. As part of the upgrade process, dispatch operations were centralized to two locations coordinating radio comms along NSW’s 129 Surf Life Saving Clubs.

The DX-Altus was installed at the State Operations Center with further Alto dispatch console positions located at a second site. The two dispatch centers and the repeater sites along over 2,000km’s of coastline are connected using their existing Radio over IP network.

Andy Kent, Lifesaving Manager has said: “The upgrade to Altus was carefully planned to ensure that we had minimal disruption to the network and that my staff spent time with the technicians to configure the system exactly to our needs, SLS NSW is very happy with the outcome.”
