Alcatel-Lucent Broadband 700 MHz Solution for Public Safety Enhanced Communications for Mission-Critical Needs
Overview Offering transmission rates up to 3.1 Mb/s, the Alcatel-Lucent Broadband 700 MHz solution represents a quantum leap in first responder communication. It uses CDMA2000® 1xEV-DO Revision A technology to supplement existing LMR (Land Mobile Radio) networks by supporting a wide range of advanced multimedia services, such as streaming video, multimedia messaging, web access and backup pushto-talk service.
Going Beyond Narrowband Limits — To Meet Public Safety Needs Broadband CDMA solutions supplement and enhance land mobile radio (LMR) networks with advanced multimedia capabilities. Arming first responders with advanced multimedia services allows them instant access to mission-critical data, giving local, state and even federal agencies the ability to exchange information across jurisdictional boundaries. Wide area public safety wireless communications today use LMR technologies such as P25.
Innovative Capabilities that Leverage Existing Land Mobile Radio Transmission Towers The Alcatel-Lucent Broadband 700 MHz solution represents a quantum leap in first responder communication. Based on open-standard, commercial CDMA2000® 1xEV-DO Revision A (EV-DO Rev A) broadband technology, the Alcatel-Lucent solution provides transmission rates up to 3.1 Mb/s and coverage radius of 18 miles per site and higher.
More powerful information tools By using CDMA technology, the Alcatel-Lucent solution can support a growing spectrum of advanced communication capabilities that create a “desktop in the field” — and enhance day-to-day, task force and mutual-aid response.
Economy of scale, wider choices The EV-DO Rev A broadband technology used in the Alcatel-Lucent solution is a high-volume, open-standard commercial technology used by major service providers worldwide. As a result of wide-ranging competitive activity, using a mainstream mobile technology can often deliver a growing range of new capabilities, more cost effectively.
The Alcatel-Lucent Advantage Knowing that public safety is a public trust, Alcatel-Lucent combines a solid understanding of public safety requirements with leadership in 3G technologies. The result is a powerful and cost-effective Broadband 700 MHz Public Safety solution that provides a unified infrastructure for cooperating public safety agencies — supporting advanced multimedia services that enhance the effectiveness of the public safety mission.
