Intergrated Microwave Tech. Introduces Video Downlink-Equipped Squad Car at Police Security Expo 2011

ATLANTIC CITY, NJ JUNE 21, 2011 – Integrated Microwave Technologies, LLC (IMT), a Business Unit within the Vitec Group’s Videocom Division, and a leader in advanced digital microwave systems for MAG (Military, Aerospace & Government) markets, is showcasing a video downlink equipped squad car, built around the Ford Crown Victoria chassis, at Police Security Expo (PSE) 2011 (Booth 1357).

With the introduction of the in-car downlink system, IMT can now provide seamless integration for video situational awareness into any first responder vehicles (police, fire, emergency) and turn them into surveillance and command centers.

An important feature of the video downlink system is that it can be integrated into a squad car or first responder vehicles’ existing laptop infrastructure.  There are no hardware or software modifications required and there is no interference with the existing computer set-up.

At the system's core is IMT's specially designed ruggedized Mobile Tactical Receiver dual offering exceptional RF performance combined with high ease of operation. These features are combined in a durable weather resistant package delivering unequaled value in a high-quality COFDM receiver.

“IMT is proud to introduce its video downlink-equipped squad car at this year's Police Security Expo,” says Integrated Microwave Technologies President Stephen Shpock.    “The integration capabilities that we are now able to provide in first responder vehicles not only makes them ideal for public security monitoring, covert surveillance and other secure transmission applications, but turns the vehicles into true command centers as well.”

In addition, the receiver also features an Ethernet port for streaming video over IP to local or remote software or hardware decoders. This allows many remote viewers, in addition to the first responder vehicle, to be able to monitor the same video simultaneously, increasing situational awareness.

 

“The benefits of video downlinks are becoming much more common in police surveillance,” adds Shpock.  “As new technologies like thermal imaging and facial recognition are embedded in the video system, the long range and wide area monitoring capability of a video downlink will continue to provide an increasingly safer environment.  IMT is committed to providing state-of-the-art equipment and integration services to this very important market.”
