Police and local authorities in Lower Saxony, represented by ZPD, have commissioned Frequentis to supply its multimedia communication solution 3020 LifeX. The implementation of this system across eight control centers, one alternate control center, and one test system will take place in three phases.

The project will establish a state-wide standard for the control center communication system within an IP-based system environment in Lower Saxony.

Modernization of the control center

"Throughout modernizing the police and cooperative control centers in Lower Saxony, one of the main requirements, among other things, was updating the communication system, as an essential technical component,” says Marc Stothfang, Project Lead, Operations Control System Lower Saxony (ELS NI).

"Against the background of many years of good experience with the predecessor system, Frequentis ICCS 3020, in the state, the special challenges about a long-term migration phase from the old to the new system, as well as the fulfillment of future multimedia communication requirements, we opted for the Frequentis successor system, 3020 LifeX."

Reliable communication system

The existing Frequentis ICCS 3020 will be replaced by next-gen of Frequentis communication systems

With this, Lower Saxony has a reliable communication system with almost identical and extensive functional features at its disposal at all times, even during parallel operation, which provides the control centers with maximum technical performance, especially given the current security situation."

The existing Frequentis Integrated Command and Control Solution (ICCS 3020), in operation for more than ten years, will be replaced by the next generation of Frequentis communication systems. Furthermore, it will realize the operational system interconnection of the control centers and enable interaction in case of overload or failure.

An innovative approach

The decision of the State of Lower Saxony to choose the Frequentis state-of-the-art LifeX multimedia communication system for its modernization confirms the innovative approach we have taken during the development," says Robert Nitsch, Frequentis Vice President Public Safety. 

"The long-standing partnership between the State of Lower Saxony and Frequentis will be continued and together we will provide the control center operations with further new functions to meet future requirements."
