  1. TACTICAL INTEROPERABILITY: AN EMERGENCY COMMUNICATOR’S PERSPECTIVE VIRGINIA COMMUNICATIONS CACHE

  2. Objectives • Define the Virginia Communications Cache. • Identify Cache Assets and Applicability. • Determine Cache Benefits. • Prepare for Cache Assistance. • Identify Cache Request Procedures.

  3. The success of any event or incident is effective communications. Communications can be hampered by inadequate communications equipment, systems failures and lack of resources. The Virginia Communications Cache can provide portable radios and tactical equipment to supplement radio systems and create a communications plan for an incident.

  4. Cache Resources • Portable Radios. • Portable Repeaters. • Infrastructure Repeaters. • Deployable Towers. • System/Radio Interconnection (Gateways). • Satellite Voice & Internet Communications. • Local Wi-Fi Network. • Point–to–Point Networking.

  5. RADIO CACHE Portable Radios • VHF High Band • UHF • 700/800 MHz • Analog/Digital Conventional • P25 Conventional and Trunked • Motorola & M/A-COM Analog/Digital Trunking.

  6. Repeaters • Portable • VHF High Band • UHF • 700/800 MHz • Infrastructure • VHF High Band • UHF • 700/800 MHz • Analog and P25 Conventional.

  13. Cache Benefits • Additional Portable Radios on Locality System. • Radio Gateways (Tactical Patching). • Ex: State Forest Service to Local Fire. • College Police to Local Fire and Rescue • Additional Coverage Area tactical repeaters. • Trained Tactical Personnel (COML). • Communications Unit Leaders and Technicians • Satellite IP Networking.

  14. How to Request a Cache • Emergency Incidents: • Contact the Virginia EOC. Initial point of contact. • VDEM will determine closest team/resource. • Coordinate Planning and Response. • Planned Events: • Contact Virginia EOC. • Can make direct contact to local cache if known. • Assist and source out best resource determination. • Forward to local contact. • Contact should be made 30-120 days prior.
