How Zetron MAX unifies LMR radio, telephony, and IP channels in a single dispatch console for municipal and regional emergency centers. Architecture for mid-tier PSAPs in Peru: P25/DMR/analog interoperability, NEXLOG recording, and redundancy for 99.999% availability.
A typical Peruvian municipal emergency center has three radio handhelds, two phones, and CCTV on the dispatcher's desk — Serenazgo (VHF analog), PNP (P25 digital), and Fire (UHF analog) running as completely separate systems. Cross-agency coordination requires the dispatcher to manually re-transmit between systems, causing 3-8 minute dispatch times vs. the 60-90 second NENA Type A target.
The MAX is a software-based dispatch console that connects to all communication systems via IP gateways: analog VHF/UHF gateway for Serenazgo, P25 Phase 1/2 gateway for PNP, DMR Tier 2/3 gateway for newer municipal systems, and VoIP/PSTN for emergency phone lines. All channels appear as buttons on a single screen.
Key dispatch functions: Real-time channel patching (Serenazgo + PNP on the same group without re-transmission), priority emergency alerts with automatic audio prioritization, 30-60 second instant recall for address/plate verification, and dynamic talk groups for complex incidents.
Eventide NEXLOG records all radio channels (analog, P25, DMR) and phone calls with synchronized timestamps and radio/operator IDs. Timeline-based replay reconstructs any incident across all channels — admissible as digital evidence under Ministerio Público standards.
Active-standby server pair (<10s failover), hardware Acom backup consoles, 30-min UPS + auto-generator with <15s transfer, and redundant ring network with RSTP (<1s rerouting). Result: <5 minutes downtime per year.
Integrates 120 Serenazgo VHF units + 45 PNP P25 units + 15 Fire UHF + 8 SAMU ambulances into 6 MAX dispatch workstations. Expected result: dispatch time from 4-6 minutes to 60-90 seconds, full auditable record, elimination of multi-device desktop clutter.
