IP VCS System IP based VCS for ATM and dispatcher centers Distributed architecture Redundant and reliable VCS solution Non blocking architecture State of the art CWPs International standards compliance TOPEX IP VCS is an integrated Voice Communication System based on IP technology enabling ground / air / ground communications. Dedicated solution for command and control centers, IP VCS combines radio, telephone and intercom communications in a secured ATC system. Distributed architecture One of the main advantages of IP VCS system consists in the migration of the system intelligence from the system core to the end terminals. The core switching is represented by redundant Layer 3 switches/routers that connect all IP VCS system components. Redundant and reliable VCS solution TOPEX IP VCS is a fully redundant and reliable command and control system over QoS enabled IP networks. All the critical components of the system are redundant and also include redundant Ethernet connection interfaces. TOPEX system offers geographical redundancy allowing protection to both hardware failures as to IP-link or site failure. The IP VCS system is also available for 24/7 continuous operation without any communication disturbances. Non blocking architecture The system architecture is distributed and based on the non blocking concept eliminating the single points of failure from the legacy systems. The IP VCS system components are easy extendable to any location IP presence and is not limited by a hardware constraint in the central core. State of the art CWPs TOPEX IP CWP is designed and corresponds to the latest air traffic control demands meeting the highest and strictly ergonomic and reliability standards. All the interface structure is configurable and easy to use including windows, buttons or widgets adaptation. International standards compliance As a EUROCAE WG67 member since 2008, TOPEX developed its IP VCS solution based on WG67 ED standards covering the latest requirements on ATC industry. TOPEX has an active contribution on the development of WG67 standards having a direct approach on proposed and standardized features.
