LCC UK DEPLOYS TETRA INDOOR SOLUTION FOR LEADING UK OPERATOR
VIENNA, VA –May 15, 2012
LCC International, Inc., (LCC), a global leader in advanced wireless, wire-line voice and data turn-key services, announced that LCC UK has been awarded a project to provide or enhance a Terrestrial Trunked Radio (TETRA) network’s indoor coverage in various venues and special buildings for a leading operator in Great Britain.
LCC UK’s solution is based on a network of pico-repeaters allocated in specific locations that will allow indoors continuity of voice and data services with high reliability. LCC UK’s full turnkey solution for this project covers Network Design & Optimization, Installation & Commissioning and Operation & Maintenance services.
A TETRA solution provides critical life-safety communication for Public Safety first responders such as police, fire and emergency medical agencies, allowing them to more effectively respond to emergency situations. This project required a portable solution with a rapid deployment phase, with a highly reliable network to guarantee the best standards of quality for these critical services.
LCC’s approach was to find not only a portable solution with a rapid deployment phase, but also to build a high reliable network to guarantee the best standards of quality for these critical services. In addition, the whole system is monitored on a 24x7 basis, allowing LCC to provide a prompt response and a quick recovery time if necessary. The service is initially expected to last a minimum of 3 months, beginning in the coming summer 2012.
