MSCOMMNET / Maine State Communications Network

  • MSCOMMNET is the new statewide radio/mobile data network that will replace several existing systems, including those of the Maine State Police, Maine Warden Service, Maine State Forestry, Maine Marine Patrol, Maine Emergency Management Agency, Maine Department of Corrections, MDEA, and some smaller state agencies.
  • Harris (former Tyco-M/A Comm/former Ericson, former GE) has been selected as the primary vendor
  • The system will be a digital, P25-IP, trunked VHF system with encryption capability
  • Each system site will also have a conventional "RegionNet" interoperability repeater and one or more conventional base stations for State Fire, Statewide C/C, etc.to enable communications between state, county & local agencies.
  • Each site will also retransmit that area's primary State Police talkgroup in conventional analog for local agencies to monitor
  • Completion date is slated to be the Fall of 2012 in order to meet the FCC narrow-banding deadline of 12/31/2012.
