Prime Responder, a suite of Public Safety Interoperability products, is composed of the 376 Series Voice Frequency (VF) Switch, VOX equipment, and M4 Communications System.

Raven recognized the need for Public Safety Interoperability when it introduced its 37600 Series Voice Frequency (VF) switching matrix. Since then, Raven has continually developed and evolved additional equipment related to Public Safety Interoperability. The VOX equipment and the scalable M4 Communication Systems are the most recent developments towards optimum interoperability.

Raven Electronics' Prime Responder M4 Communications System is a fully scalable, interoperability solution for complicated disparate or tactical incident radio networks. M4 easily and cost effectively can connect fire, police, and emergency management operatives to a variety of interfaces including VOIP networks.

To demonstrate how easily Prime Responder M4 can manage resources via the supervisor console, see the screen shots below. In the screen shots below, there are three members (radios) in the talk group labeled “Region 1 Cooperative” and two members in “Incident: Park Lane” talk group. The supervisor is currently listening in on the incident at Park Lane as “TAC-TEAM1” talks (transmits) to “COMMAND_NET". When the supervisor selects listen, they hear all audio coming and going to that particular “NET”. When they “break in” they are able to communicate to that talk group.

Prime Responder M4 is the premier solution for most interoperability needs.

Prime Responder 376 and 476 Series systems are electronic fully non-blocking, cross-point, switching arrays. It is designed to selectively route 0.3 to 20.0 KHz audio frequency analog signals.

Available in 8-, 16-, or 32- line versions for the 376 series and any number of ports up to 128 in the 476 series system, they are full-access, space division switches, which can operate with Raven 416 Series Order Wire equipment, radios, and a variety of other equipment. A broad line of other interface modules can provide interconnection of voice channel functions associated with a communications central hub or terminal.

The industry's most compact VF switch gives you large system quality and features for the interconnection of private and private/public telecommunications facilities, microwave radio communications links, and mobile radio networks.

Prime Responder VOX equipment provides a fast attack VOX circuit with digital delay to prevent speech clipping. It connects the audio from different radio types in a simple back-to-back configuration.
