MAX Dispatch System
Zetron’s new MAX Dispatch gives you the solid reliability and performance you expect from Zetron in a breakthrough, IP-based dispatch console system.
Product Features
- Intelligent UI: Highlights information pertinent to the task at hand; reduces information overload.
- Built-in Network Health Monitor: Provides constant feedback about network status.
- Advanced tools: Streamline installation and minimize field time.
- Dual connections: Ensure end-to-end network redundancy.
The MAX Dispatch System comprises four key elements working together over an IP network: the MAX Radio Gateway, MAX Central, MAX Console, and the Media Dock
| MAX Console w/ Media Dock: | Workstation Requirements: | ||
| The MAX Dispatch console is the system element that provides the critical user interface to dispatchers. Each console consists of a Windows based client running the MAX Dispatch application software and the Media Dock. The console PC is equipped with two, full-duplex Ethernet ports for full network redundancy. The Media Dock provides the audio interface and connection point for accessories. Media Dock Interfaces Supported:
| Operating System: | Windows 7 x64 Professional | |
| Video Monitor(s): | 1680 x 1050 resolution display or larger; 1920 x 1080 recommended. DirectX 10-compatible graphics processor with a Windows Display Drive Model (WDDM) 1.1 driver, pixel shader 3.0 in hardware, and a minimum of 512MB of video RAM. Touchscreen operation requires a monitor that supports multi-touch. | ||
| Processor: | Dual Core i3/i5 3.0 GHz or better processor. (The current reference build uses the i3 540.) | ||
| Memory: | 4GB | ||
| Drive: | 80GB or larger | ||
| Network: | 100/1000 Ethernet Connection. Dual connections are required for link redundancy options | ||
| MAX Radio Gateway: | MAX Central: | ||
| The Radio Gateway serves as the interface point between a radio or base station and the rest of the MAX system. Radio Gateways are available in both analog and digital forms depending on the radio interface requirement. Supported Features:
| The Central is the hardware platform that hosts several software services used in the MAX Dispatch system. These software services provide essential management and control to the system as well as act as a gateway to various third party devices for additional functionality such as telephony gateways, IP voice loggers, MODBUS IP auxiliary I/O devices. It also hosts the service that provides remote console, remote radio gateway and multiple MAX Dispatch site linkage. Supported Features:

NETWORK SPECIFICATIONS
| Radio Gateway Payload (per radio): | 168 kbps during radio Tx. 84 kbps during radio Rx. If using an IP voice logger, an additional 84 kbps maximum for each active audio stream is needed. 5 kbps average for non-audio traffic | Packet Loss: | < 0.1% (< 1% for non-mission critical) | |
| Packet Delay: | < 40 ms for LAN environments; up to 2 seconds for longhaul (long delay) environments | |||
| Packet Jitter: | < 20 ms (< 40 ms for-non mission critical) | |||
| Console Workstation Payload: | 84 kbps maximum for each active audio stream (Tx or Rx). N*84 kbps for simultaneous Tx on N channels | Network Infrastructure: | 100 Mbps minimum, full-duplex Ethernet. Switches and routers must be multicast aware. Mission-critical applications should use a dedicated network |
