Description

The Interagency Security Management Network (IASMN) recently endorsed our new standards defining how to use Mobile Satellite Services (MSS) voice services as a Security Communications Systems (SCS) tool.

This document standardises how to use portable, mobile, base and vehicle voice satellite services, both in “telephone mode” and “PTT – Push To Talk” mode.

The new standards document is now online on the {TESS+} Public Library. To access the document follow this path:

  • Go to http://bit.ly/tess-public
  • Click on “IASMN-UNDSS official documents”
  • Click on “TESS+ standard on use of Mobile Satellite Voice Services as SCS tool”

(For those having access to UNSMIN, this document will also be published on the UNSMIN home page)

In the upcoming {TESS+} webinar, WFP would like to brief you on these new SCS connectivity standards, which complement their past published SCS standards on the use of other connectivity SCS tools: VHF/UHF, HF and Vehicle Tracking Systems.

As such, they invite you for their upcoming webinar:
