Capabilities-at-a-Glance

ScoutLink provides access from external Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) devices into a traditional Scout system. The SIP platform allows ScoutLink to connect seamlessly from front end SIP devices to Scout system endpoints. Consider the following capabilities.

Capability Description
Extends Scout's Communication Options Serves as a gateway to enable calls to VPGate endpoints from locations that require a simple console device instead of a full-featured Scout console that a dedicated dispatcher requires.
Leverages Scout System Plugs into an existing Scout system and uses the existing architecture to take Scout to a wider audience of users in more locations than a traditional Scout system.
Operates with Open Standard Protocol Uses Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) for communication.
Connects with SIP Devices Uses ScoutLink-qualified devices such as the versatile Scout E1 Console to connect to VPGate endpoints.
Supports Cross-Industry Needs

ScoutLink with the Scout E1 Console meets a communication need found in many industries:

  • Public Safety – Supervisors can monitor channels from their desktops for situational awareness
  • Business and Industry – Campuses for hospitals, schools, or businesses can handle security communication and security desk officers can coordinate emergency responses.
  • Utilities – Local area offices can maintain contact with adjacent districts during disaster coordination, supervisors can monitor talkgroups and contact personnel for coordination, and supervisors in power plants can monitor and coordinate plant operations.
  • Airline Transportation – Load planners can monitor a few channels as needed, guard houses can coordinate the van drivers who shuttle pilots, and mechanic sheds can keep in touch with mechanics at the planes.
  • Railway Transportation – Yardmasters can listen and talk to personnel at the yards.
Supports Redundancy ScoutLink can be implemented in a redundant configuration to allow the Scout E1 Consoles to remain operational despite a single point of failure.
Provides Diagnostics Uses proven Scout methods for tracking diagnostics including Scout Central Distributor (SCD) alarm acknowledgment; SCD alarm and event reporting; and ScoutLink Configuration webpage access to log files, service status, and license status information.
Telephone to Radio Connect

Introduced in Version 4.14, Telephone to Radio Connect allows SIP phones or cell phones to dial a radio endpoint when that endpoint is registered in ScoutLink. When an endpoint is selected, callers are then connected to the endpoint's radio frequency or talkgroup.

Note: Telephone to Radio Connect does not support attended transfers.
