A port is being monitored by security officials and there are several people constantly watching port activity and ship movements at sea. Instant communications is necessary between central control room personnel and others located at key vantage points and in mobile vehicles. In addition, interface to Coast Guard, local police, local fire department, and weather service liaison officials are provided. Instant and reliable communications ability is critical to insure homeland security and public safety. No time can be wasted while operators hunt for telephone numbers and try to handle multiple communications devices typically used for individual tasks.
