VIRVE in the hot seat – an exercise tests the operations and co-ordination of public safety organisations during a major incident. 12 14 www.nokia.com/tetra 4 Coverage is the answer to network planning – and Nokia TB3 TETRA base station can help planners achieve the network they want. What are your dispatching needs? With TETRA, today’s dispatching is far more capable and efficient. VINJETTI EDITORIAL Seamless means no boundaries Numerous TETRA networks have now been in operation for long enough to prove the many benefits that the technology has brought to users, user organisations and to the people – customers or citizens – that they serve. These benefits include non-congested communications, crystal clear voice quality, complete support for field operations, as well as rapid and secure data services. In addition, Nokia TETRA systems provide truly seamless services throughout the network, whether local, regional or nationwide. A seamless network is transparent, which means that its technical structure is invisible to users. And this means that user organisations do not have to worry about any of the network’s physical aspects when it comes to the planning of their operations and co-operative processes. It’s all about flexibility This equates to flexibility. Freedom from artificial limits that older technologies place on operational planning. No longer does the radio network’s infrastructure have to be considered when planning operational areas. With today’s seamless Nokia TETRA, organisations are free to plan their operations without thinking about the technical limitations of the system. Seamless TETRA services also mean that technical issues, such as numbering, the location of base stations, or the operating areas of the switches, do not limit multi-agency operations. The network is truly transparent – not only to the users, but also to the planners. TETRA is flexible, giving users and planners further freedom in the way they adopt the technology. If an organisation does not want to change its established working methods, it does not have to. TETRA can be implemented as a straight substitution for an old analogue system, bringing better security. However, adopting TETRA can also offer much more when the organisation decides to develop better co-operative working processes. In other words, seamless TETRA services give new flexibility to migration from the old system to the new. Clear benefits to transparency TETRA services are transparent and the many success stories around the world clearly demonstrate its benefits. One success is especially indebted to TETRA technology – the revamping of the Finnish emergency response centres (described later in this issue of TETRA Touch). This overhaul would simply not have been possible in an analogue world. This is a perfect example of streamlining operations and changing the ways of working. Yet it is most important to remember that adopting TETRA does not require drastic changes in operations. Adopting TETRA means freedom to choose.
