Connect third-party IP devices to Scout systems via SIP



ScoutLink™ is a new component built on the core Scout™ architecture that opens access to the Scout dispatching console platform. ScoutLink extends communications possibilities and leverages the range of connectivity already supported by Scout to a wider audience. It does this by using the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) to communicate. Utilizing SIP allows ScoutLink to access third-party IP devices.

ScoutLink Diagram



By deploying ScoutLink alongside Scout consoles, clients can:

  • Communicate via licensed SIP devices, such as a Mini SIP Console, through the existing Scout infrastructure to any of the endpoint types that are supported in VPGate.
  • Benefit from a lower entry point for new systems, especially those who need only a simple system when they start.
  • Leverage the Scout backbone already in place on their IP network.
  • Create a standalone system that scales as needs change, from a single position to multiple dispatch centers each with hundreds of consoles and thousands of endpoints.
  • Extend dispatch communications to places where a full-scale console position would be cumbersome, or in other situations that require an alternative to a standard console.
