No control center can afford to fall over or become overloaded – that is why it will need a backup control center or a speedy link up with other control centers in case of technical fault or major emergency.
Using Voice over IP, Euro Alert makes it possible to network several control centers with one another. Every workstation in such a system can benefit from the full functionality of every other station in the control center network. Technical and organizational requirements – such as the need to link several control centers together for operational reasons or for one center to take the role of another during the night – can be satisfied with extreme flexibility, guaranteeing the best possible system resilience. The technical operation of the backup center is entirely independent of the presence of dispatchers on site – making it a very welcome solution even for very small or unmanned emergency response systems.
The benefits at a glance:
- Maximum system resilience thanks to the presence of a backup control center
- Flexible combination of several control centers in case of major emergency
- Independence of the geographical location of your dispatchers
