Smartronix Acquires Exclusive License to Avaya’s Radio over Internet Protocol
Software
Hollywood, MD –
21 January 2011 – Smartronix has been granted
exclusive license to Avaya’s Radio over Internet Protocol (RoIP)
software within all government markets. This software provides
enhanced communications between military units by converging
voice, text messaging, email over RF (via DISA’s PDA-184), and
remote radio configuration control capability into a single
standalone network appliance. Avaya’s RoIP software is the heart
of Voice over IP VICOM systems currently in use with the United
States Military Special Operations and conventional forces.
Communications operators for maneuver units and Special
Operational Forces (SOF) are often required to patch voice from
phones, networked clients, and radios into a single audio
channel or conference. In addition, they need to use a computer
network to remotely reconfigure military radios to operate on
different frequencies and settings and the ability to share
expensive radio data controllers as network assets in an effort
to maximize the efficiency of sending data over radio links. The
Avaya RoIP software provides a scalable, interoperable
communications system that does not require complex information
technology support or administration. In addition, the software
provides an increased reach back capability to the military
commander in both asset sharing and control which maximizes
their mission success.
"In a time of decreasing budgets this product can extend the
life of legacy military and land mobile radios while offering
interoperability with state of the art radios and cell
phones.", says Alan Parris, Smartronix Executive Vice President
for Engineering Solutions. "This technology enhances our
position in providing a total hardware and software solution for
communication interoperability while helping our armed forces
maintain their communications advantage in the field."
