Maritime Communication Systems (MCS)

The MCS 3020 is a combined voice and data switch especially designed for the need of maritime coastal communications. The MCS 3020 uses the proven VCS 3020X application software and the latest peripheral hardware for interfaces and operator positions.

Architecture
The architecture of the MCS 3020 balances optimal performance and low risk communications and is based on a legacy of proven systems unrivalled in safety and reliability. The MCS 3020 provides integrated voice communications for radio, telephone, maritime applications and sensor information in one unique system with unlimited conferencing capabilities. The MCS 3020 provides any operator access to all communication channels, regardless of the system load at any place and at any time.

Topology
The MCS 3020 is built on a star architecture with duplicated 2 MBit/s E1 communication links, using standard CAT7 for structured cabling to all peripheral devices. A fibre optic backbone allows both system extensions and the splitting up of systems. All critical components of the MCS 3020 are duplicated to ensure the availability of the communication paths. The decentralised and modular MCS 3020 provides full scalability without requiring software changes. This goes for small systems like Port or Harbour communication via Communication systems for VTS centres and special fully GMDSS-compliant communication systems for MRCC as well as for large systems like Coastal Radio Systems or Communication Systems for Coastal Surveillance Systems.

Scalability: gate X – Systems that grow with your needs
Meet the new member of the MCS 3020 family: a slim module called “gate X “ forms the core switch for small applications such as port systems, by using the same software, hardware and functions as the very biggest systems on the market. MCS 3020 with gate X: the first really scalable system without any functional limitations. gate X modules are stackable to create any system size.
