The Solution
RoIP Health Care Network

By placing IPR400 (4-port) and IPR110+ (single port) gateways at each repeater site, hospitals are now able to connect to each other using Radio over IP (RoIP).
RoIP provides a cost-effective means of connecting resources over wide areas as it uses existing IP networks.
Depending on their dispatch requirements, each location chose whether they used 960 Handset Consoles, a 960CC Consoles or IPRdispatch Touch Screen Consoles.
Using MPT1327 radios also provided another level of challenge. However, the IPR gateways proved to pass in-based signaling better than other VoIP gateways on the market.

By using RoIP, they now have a flexible foundation where they can add resources as required.
