Main Electronics Package
The architectural design of the UltraCom console system consists of one Main Electronics Package II (MEP II) shared by a
number of individual Operator Positions (OP). The Main Electronic Package II (MEP II) equipment is a fully digital audio and data switch. It acts as the central connection hub of the console
system. All Operator Positions, radio control lines, admin telephone lines, E911 trunks, and auxiliary equipment connect to the MEP II. The MEP II is typically located in an equipment room or radio vault
close to the base station wiring.
Operator Position
The Operator Position is the interface between the dispatcher and all functions the console system performs. In its
most basic form, it provides status information and visual control buttons to the dispatcher. This allows them to control and route audio in order to communicate with telephone callers and field radio
units. The Operator Position can also be used to configure the system. Each Operator Position is connected to the MEP II with a 2-pair T1 data link. Direct cable or in-house LAN wiring can be used
to remote a position up to 6000 feet from the MEP II. Longer distances can be accommodated via leased T1 lines or microwave links.
User Interface
The user interface is fully customer programmable. All screen layouts, button size, location, colors, labels,
functionality, features, and levels are fully programmable by customer maintenance personnel. Features such as Pop-Up Windows and user Macros remove display clutter and automate dispatcher tasks.
And as always, software updates are free for the life of the system. Refer to the UltraCom brochure for more information
about system features.
