Comms Connect underway in Melbourne

Industry experts from around Australia and across the world are gathering at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre for the annual Comms Connect conference and exhibition.

Day one is underway today, Tuesday, 1 December, with attendees participating in a range of technical workshops covering topics as diverse as microwave backhaul, DMR, LTE and public safety radio.

On days two and three (2–3 December), the main conference and exhibition will commence, featuring 80-plus speakers and a sold-out exhibition hall (80-plus exhibitors).

Topics to be covered cover the gamut of the business- and mission-critical communications sectors: public safety mobile broadband, body worn video and biometrics, situational awareness, push-to-talk, defence comms, spectrum sharing, Next-Gen Triple Zero, government radio networks, research and development, and security and cyber attacks.

In addition, there will be sessions covering strategic developments, information management, IT and operational convergence, big data and virtualisation, GIS systems, disruptive technologies and smart cities.

Technologies covered will include LTE, TETRA, 400 MHz, satellite comms, SCADA and DMR.

If you haven’t already registered to attend some of the speaker sessions or the exhibition, it’s not too late — different registration packages are available to suit different needs.

There are group discounts (register three delegates and get a fourth registration free); single-day and two-day conference packages; half-day workshop registrations; and free exhibition passes are available for dealers, consultants, radio users and those responsible for their organisation’s radio communication system (for a small fee you can have lunch thrown in too).

Volunteers have not been forgotten. Discounted rates apply to volunteers from these organisations: rural/country fire services, SES, ambulance services, NSW Volunteer Rescue Association, land management services, Coast Guard, surf lifesaving, Australian Red Cross and St John Ambulance.
