APCO sees intro of new products

APCO sees intro of new products

Topics covered at conference include VoIP, public-safety trends
  • Written by Urgent Communications Administrator
  • 1st August 2005

One can generally tell whether a conference is a big-time event by the quality of speakers it attracts. By that measure, the Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials’ 71st Conference scheduled for this month in Denver stands up well. Scheduled to speak are former Department of Homeland Security Director Tom Ridge, who will deliver the opening keynote address and current Federal Communications Commissioner Michael Copps, who will deliver the closing keynote.

In between, educational sessions will bring attendees up to date on important public-safety communications issues and trends, including VoIP’s impact on E911, the rebanding of the 800 MHz airwaves, the clearing of broadcasters from the 700 MHz band, in addition to important APCO initiatives such as Project RETAINS.

In addition to the plethora of educational opportunities, APCO’s conference also offers the opportunity to discover the myriad products — many of them new introductions — that will be showcased by industry vendors. The following offers a preview of what to expect.
