Example of vehicle TECHNICAL DEPARTMENT installation

Secure Communication with field operational team

1. This feature is based on our own field proven experience and it is suggested as an integrated sub system for mission critical users like special police, anti-drug/anti-smuggling officer, senior guard, etc., only a professional terminal is not enough to accomplish tasks and ensure safety. This is where a complete communications solution is demanded.
2. To enable direct and uninterrupted communication with operational team/cars in the field, an encoded radio communication system with the agents will be operated from the command and control vehicle, -the Motorola or Hytera DMR Radio
3. The car’s agents will be equipped with in car or portable communication systems, complies fully with ETSI open standard.
4. Perfect combination of structural rigidity, versatile functionalities, and refined design; secure communication ensured by AES encryption algorithm
5. Convenient application development facilitated
6.  GPS positioning – Real-time tracking. This feature allows the radio dispatch system to track the location of any radio units in real-time. Users have an option to display the location route on the computerized car mapping.

On critical missions, the dispatcher can send staff nearby for check and help when the route of an agent halted.

1. The built-in GPS module supports GIS applications.
2. Dual modes (analogue & digital) operation ensures a smooth analogue to digital migration.

Car Security nearby feel of the activities system (Video and Audio)

Special measures

Each of the following sub systems is essential for the safety operation and for operational cases which might occur during operation. The following sub systems were designed and integrated in a variety of vehicles and the operational feedback is excellent. It gives solutions for several needs:

1. Long stay in the vehicle (refrigerator & air condition system)
2. Power demands for long operation (UPS/ banks of batteries)
3. Emergency cases (siren, blue lights)

Air-condition

To enable continuous operation within the closed intelligent cabinet we shall install and SELF SUPPORT 220V air condition system. To provide fresh air from the exterior, we shall install an additional small silent ventilator.

Autonomic battery power supply system

To enable uninterrupted 3-4 hours operation of the control and communication equipment within the vehicle, the vehicle will be equipped with 15 kw special LIT/Ion battery systems to allow continues operation when the main generator will stop working all the main operational activity and its other ‘functional’ systems i.e. lighting, communication, scanning and air condition).

Spotlights

The vehicle will be equipped with one Mag light spotlights with a special charger inside the vehicle to enable search and orientation by night.

Alarm system

The vehicle will have an alarm system activated if broken into illegally while parked.
