VISLINK will work with its partners Zeiss and Telemedia to supply the South African Police Services (SAPS) with a comprehensive helicopter and ground based video downlink system. This network is supported by a combination of airborne, mobile, and portable equipment that will include strategically located diversity receive sites enabling police teams on the ground to maximize their surveillance coverage area. The solution consists of both traditional diversity, as well as cellular diversity technology depending on the location. Specific equipment includes: MDR-2 diversity receivers, Link L2024 cellular diversity receivers as well as STRATA portable microwave transmit systems with specialized HPU’s (High Power Units). After the completion of the 2010 World Cup, the SAPS will continue to use these systems for border patrol and general security around the region. This solution represents another step toward implementing VISLINK’s LE&PS market strategy for Mobile Network Centric Solutions (MNCS) services. MNCS services provide mobile, fast deployable, self-sufficient communications support for phone, video, data and remote wireless IP network connectivity. Additionally, VISLINK’s MNCS services can be configured with little, if any, reliance on existing infrastructure including power grid or data network support.
