Tait celebrates 40 years and great 2008

Tait Radio Communications在销售年度的记录年度的双向无线电通信行业中庆祝40年。

"What is starting to become clear for many organizations in North America is that Tait is a real alternative," says Tait North America president Steve Cragg. "Customers turn to Tait because its people can deliver reliable equipment, open systems and tailored solutions."

Since the last IWCE these are some of the United States organizations that have chosen a Tait solution:

MidAmerican Energy Holdings Company
Marathon County, WI
State of Connecticut Corrections
State of California Highway Patrol
MinnesotaPower
Cochise County, AZ
City of Augusta, ME
WarrenCounty, MO
RappahannockElectric Cooperative
McKenzie Electric Cooperative
Shenandoah Valley Electric Cooperative

These customers are joined by many other organizations around the globe such as Sao Paulo Police, Air Services Australia and Pilsen Bus that are turning to Tait's choice of solutions, its Tait Tough radios and world class services.

Tait was set up by radio pioneer Sir Angus Tait, whose vision to place the company's ownership into a unique trust structure now guarantees long-term stability. "While many shareholder-owned companies are struggling, Tait has been able to reinvest profits back into research and development in order to support customers like those listed above," Steve says.

"Each year Tait continue to take great leaps to show our long-term dedication to the United States market," Steve says. "Last year, Tait announced its GSA schedule and GSA-exclusive production line in Houston, TX, which offers Federal agencies efficient access to quality solutions."

Leading interoperable communications

"Tait's commitment to developing communications systems that are interoperable with other radio manufacturers is second to none," Steve says. "At last year's IWCE, Tait demonstrated this commitment by participating in the P25 Inter RF Sub-system Interface (ISSI) Group Call using the P25 ISSI standard."

“今年的IWCE访问者对Tait摊位（＃735）可以期望更多地了解扦插与调度控制台制造商的互操作性的承诺。从数字集群（CSSI）和常规（DFSI）到4线模拟网关，以支持与遗留的接口Console，Tait提供支持我们在基于IP的P25产品线中所有这些的解决方案。“

"For example Tait is pleased to announce that Avtec consoles support DFSI connection with Tait base stations and we are prepared for other console manufacturers to follow," Steve says.

Choice of solutions

Organizations are also turning to Tait for its choice of radio solutions. Tait is one of few organizations that can deliver a P25 simulcast solution as a standard option on both conventional and trunked networks.

“Cochise县,亚利桑那州,奥奈达市的计谋nty, Wisconsin and the City of Augusta, Maine may have extremely different geography, but have in common a lack of frequencies. This is why last year all three turned to Tait P25 Simulcast for an economical and spectrum-efficient solution," Steve concludes.

Tait has sophisticated encryption applications for public safety teams needing secure communications. In 2008, Tait Tough P25 portables became FIPS 140-2 certified, meaning they pass the most stringent federal tests for encryption.

在今年的IWCE活动中，访问者将能够查看Tait快速键填充 - 使用Tait的键填充设备将非专业员工安全地将键安全部署到P25收音机的新应用程序。
