ACOM SYSTEM COMPONENTS

The Acom Line Subrack (ALS) connects

external resources, such as radio, telephone,
digital I/O and data, to the Acom switch.

The ALS can be equipped with a wide range

of cards that support a variety legacy and
current interfaces.

Change-over Subrack (COS) is used to

connect two ALS units together. If a card fails
in the main ALS, the COS switches the
system to the standby ALS.
ACOM SYSTEM COMPONENTS
ACOM Console Unit – ACU

The ACU connects the workstation

and audio devices to the Acom
switch.

The ACU also includes switching,

conferencing, multiplexing, and DSP
capabilities.
The full-duplex audio gives
operators control over how audio is
presented through audio devices
such as desktop microphones,
headsets, handsets, speakers, and
Instant Recall Recorders (IRR).
ACOM SYSTEM COMPONENTS
ACOM DS3 SUBRACK - ADS
The ADS provides Acom’s high
bandwidth backbone.
The ADS consists of a controller
and several interface cards.
The ACU and ALS are connected to
the ADS through a T1 or E1 link.
Multiple ADS units are linked
together in a self-healing ring
architecture that forms the digital
backbone of the Acom system.
 ACOM CONSOLE FUNCTIONS
• Radio and telephone queues • SELCAL/Tone control
with priority queuing • Fully programmable paging
• Radio/telephony patching • Full-duplex, direct and addressable
and conferencing intercom
• Channel select • Foreground and background audio-
• Call-history display level controls
• Working groups • Console resource indicators
• Answer Next /Hold • Control of auxiliary relays (such as
• Dial/Last Number Redial doors and alarms)
• Memory/Speed Dial • Utility audio (TV, commercial radio)

 DCS-5020 FLEXIBLE GUI
• The Console Design tool allows the GUI to be designed to
provide the required functionality and presentation format to
meet the clients unique operational needs.

• The GUI can be designed based on button, graphical and/or

HTML presentation or a combination thereof.

• The GUI design resources allow the DCS-5020 GUI to be

customised to provide the most effective and efficient GUI
possible.
DCS-5020 OPERATOR SCREEN
 DCS-5020 APPLICATIONS
• Small Control Rooms
The integrated radio and telephone functionality allows the operator to perform both call taking
and dispatch functions.

• TETRA Wireless Console

It can connect to the TETRA system through a number of fixed TETRA radios, rather than
through a direct connection to the TETRA infrastructure.

• Mobile Command Centre

The operator can have access to multiple MPT/TETRA working groups, conventional radio
channels or telephone circuits to manage incident personnel. For truly transportable applications,
the telephone ports may be fitted with GSM terminals for mobile telephony service.

• Fallback Control Centre

Failures of the network controller, links to repeater sites, or the primary control room are
addressed by the DCS-5020 fallback solution which maintains critical communications between
control room and field personnel.

• Command and Control Centre and Mixed Technologies Patching

For operators migrating from conventional to TETRA radio, the DCS-5020 provides a bridge
enabling operators to manage both networks from a single position.
