Avtec Scout™ with MOTOTRBO Solutions

Scalable. Secure. Reliable. Proven.

Airports, utilities, amusement parks, manufacturing plants, hospitality venues: What do these places have in common? People. You don’t buy a communications system simply to facilitate talking. You buy it to protect your people, your assets and your business. When safety, productivity and reliability are paramount, you need a communications system from a company that understands what is important to you.

Avtec ScoutTM Enterprise consoles are the official dispatch solution for MOTOTRBO® radio systems, and can connect to MOTOTRBO systems through either a wireline or wireless connection. The Scout Enterprise product suite offers tight integration with all MOTOTRBO radio systems and connects via CSSI to Motorola P25 solutions, and via control station to conventional or trunked ASTRO® systems. In addition, Scout dispatch consoles integrate with the other standards-based and proprietary radio solutions, broadband Push to Talk over Cellular (POC) systems, and telephony technologies you use—giving you maximum flexibility to select the right technologies both inside the command center and in the field. And since the Scout Enterprise suite scales from one console to hundreds, you can count on a solution that grows with you over time, whether that means single-site, multi-site, regional, or mobile configurations.

The Avtec Scout E4 console provides a cost-effective solution that is compatible with Scout EX and E8 consoles so you can add additional software licenses as needed.

Why customers choose Scout Enterprise

Connect to the right people, every time

Regardless of the type of communication system you have, Scout Enterprise consoles can connect to it, providing you increased efficiency and collaboration. Avtec supports conventional and trunked radios with standards-based or proprietary interfaces, as well as broadband POC and telephony technologies. By providing support for legacy radio systems, Scout consoles can simplify your migration to a MOTOTRBO platform.

Need a reliable system?

Scout Enterprise consoles systems are fully redundant, support geographically dispersed architecture and are designed to maintain your operations in every situation.

Your workflow, your choice

Using Motorola Authorized Applications, you can customize your system to include GPS location and tracking, geofencing, text messaging, and fleet management capabilities. To increase efficiency in your center, Scout Enterprise’s flexible API allows you to control AUX I/O devices, SIP devices and peripherals, and integrate web-based resources such as cameras, video feeds, system monitoring, and weather applications.

Migrate or scale at your own pace

Build the size communication center you need now and protect your investment by adding capacity and capability as your needs grow and change. Since Scout Enterprise console components are fully interoperable with each other, you can build a system that can scale from one to 2000 endpoints or from one console to hundreds to meet your needs, even if your requirements are diverse and change over time.

Dispatch your way

Is your dispatch center located in one control room, or spread out across multiple locations in different cities or countries? Scout Enterprise allows you to set up, manage and control your system regardless of geography. Need to dispatch outside of the control room? Scout Enterprise consoles can be deployed on a laptop or a tablet—on-premise or in the field—to monitor and control operations while away from central dispatch and stay in touch with the individuals managing and responding to ongoing incidents.

Customize screens to your workflow

Need your screens to mirror a legacy console system to minimize training for your dispatchers? You got it. Have a specific workflow that requires a customized screen layout? No problem. Scout Enterprise consoles deliver the flexibility you need so your center can run at optimum efficiency.

Adheres to security standards for your peace of mind

Cybersecurity breaches are more prevalent than ever. Avtec’s Scout Enterprise is NERC-CIP/NIST 800-53 compliant to ensure your console system meets corporate and regulatory security requirements.

Logging recorders

Scout Enterprise consoles integrate with logging recorders from multiple partners, storing not only audio, but also metadata such as radio IDs and phone numbers, which makes it faster and easier to retrieve your recordings.
