NAV CANADA has selected Frequentis to provide its standardised and interoperable (ED137-compliant) X10 VCS for all Air Traffic Control & Flight Specialists communication facilities. Representing one of the large deployments of VCS and Radio/Telephone Gateways worldwide, this project will include all of NAV CANADA's operational facilities, and support sites, significantly improving communication across the whole Canadian airspace. Frequentis X10 will interface with over 3,500 VHF (very high frequency) Radios, enabling seamless ground-to-ground voice communication between NAV CANADA operational facilities, aircraft operators and airports.

The Frequentis X10 features a unique multi-redundancy design with the introduction of the aeronautical data service provisioning (ADSP) concept for voice. With its network-centric, service-oriented architecture, the software-based X10 VCS will be installed on NAV CANADAs network infrastructure. The project will provide the high levels of safety, availability, and flexibility benefits via sharing of data centres, phone gateways and frequency services, including fully duplicated parallel running audio.

Additionally, the flexible data centre approach supports full virtual centre capabilities, allowing easy dynamic re-sectorisation and fast contingency operation in case of unforeseen outages, including the ability for controllers to use any frequency from any site, at any time. The Company is internationally recognized for its safety record, and technology innovation.
