Brisbane, Australia, November 15, 2009 - Zetron’s Acom Advanced Communications System (Acom) was recently deployed for the Queensland Police Service (QPS) in Queensland, Australia, at the new North Coast Region Police Communication Centre in Maroochydore. The 35-position system provides integrated radio dispatch and emergency call-handling for the region’s rapidly growing Sunshine Coast. This is the fourth Acom system to be successfully deployed for the QPS within the last few months. The others systems were installed in QPS communication centres at Cairns, Townsville, and Rockhampton.

The Queensland Police Service has used previous versions of Zetron’s Acom system for radio and telephone communications at nine of its centres for over a decade. The Queensland Police Service utilises the Acom system because it allows them to develop ever more sophisticated voice communications systems over time.

“Acom offers the functionality and reliability that public safety agencies such as the Queensland Police Service require,” said Zetron President and CEO, Ellen O’Hara. “Another key strength of Acom is that it can be configured to address an agency’s unique operational needs.”

"We have been proud to serve the Queensland Police as their local technology provider for many years,” added Ranjan Bhagat, Zetron Australasia's Vice President and General Manager. “They lead Australian public safety agencies in their use of advanced communications technologies such as Acom."
