Costa Rica’s Largest Electric Utility Chooses Tait P25 Radios
31 October, 2012, Houston, Texas—Costa Rica¹s largest electric utility, Instituto Costarricense de Electricidad (ICE), has selected Tait Communications to provide genuine P25-compliant digital radios.
More than 1,800 Tait mobile and portable radios will be used primarily to support technical staff in ICE¹s telecommunications department, as well as power and generation staff, who rely on critical communications to install and repair electricity lines.
Headquartered in San José, ICE is a state-owned electric utility that also provides telecommunications services including fixed-line and mobile telephony, internet and data communications services throughout Costa Rica.
Steve Cragg, President, Tait Communications Americas, says: ³P25 open-standards technology means that organizations like ICE can unlock the benefits of multi-vendor interoperability while adding further value to their existing systems.²
³Our terminals were successfully tested and proven to be fully operational on ICE¹s P25-compatible network, validating ICE¹s partnership with Tait and our in-depth commitment to genuine P25 interoperability,² adds Steve.
Tait P25 terminals feature industry-leading digital audio clarity, superb build quality and the assurance of P25 Compliance Assessment Program-tested interoperability.
³For ICE, this means staff are now better connected, safer, and able to carry out their work more effectively.²
