Sharjah is the third largest Emirate in the United Arab Emirates, and prides itself on its culture, heritage, and forward-thinking government. Over just 50 years Sharjah has risen from houses with well-drawn water and generator-powered electricity to majestically towering buildings that rise above the desert countryside.
Its University City is one of the largest and most modern in the Arab world, and UNESCO has recently declared the Emirate the cultural capital of the Arab world. Clearly, only the very best is good enough for their people.
plus repeaters already supplied by SMC,it's no wonder they came yet again to SMC for this.
SMC supplied and commissioned a combination of push-button and touch-screen operator consoles. These controlled 24 radio and telephone channels overall, including emergency call handling and the integration of GPS map-based location display of police vehicles and motorcycles.
SMC already have long-standing relationships with a number of government security organisations in the United Arab Emirates, and have supplied radio systems to a number of police forces in the Emirates.
So when the Sharjah Police sought the very best radio command and control system for their new dedicated operations centre, to enhance the control of vehicle, motorcycle and personal radios
The Police commented very favourably on the operational flexibility of the system, particularly on the ease of use of the touch-screen PC dispatcher consoles.
In fact they were so impressed that they invited SMC's Chief Engineer to return to Sharjah especially for the Royal opening of the Operations Centre by the Ruler of Sharjah, His Highness Dr. Sultan Bin Mohammed Al-Quassemi.
His Highness, together with Royal dignitaries attending from every Emirate, witnessed the SMC system in 'live' operation.
