INVESTMENT # State/Territory Name: 3 Investment Name: Grantee Type: Is this a multi-jurisdictional or statewide project? List the jurisdictions served by this project: Is this a multi-disciplinary project (e.g., law enforcement, fire Yes service, public health)? Llstthe disciplines served by this project: Hawaii Island Police, Eire/tiAZMAT, EMS, Emergency Management DS3 Nodes - The immediate impact of increasing the amount of DS3 nodes in the Hawaii Region will be to extend the Hawaii County IP/Data network to remote County facilities. This-would create immediate opportunities to video conference the EOC with-field commands, transmit incident video. over the network, and any other creative use of data transfer across the region. Specifically if the. outcomes identified in section IIA above are achieved, the PSIC has been the initial step to address communications interoperability on a whole as well as the region: The -2,000 Hawaii Region's communications infrastructure has a region wide radio and data "plug and play" .ratters capability; Hawaii County has a mutual-aid command channel; and all entry in or out of the -~ communications system will be RoIP, voice and data can be "patched" out of the region via IP. - 't,• IX.B. Impact -Cost-Effective Measures Describe the cost-effective measures that will indicate that this Investment is successful throughout the PSIC period of performance (FY 2007 - FY 2010). (4,000 Char.

It may require the use of swap radios in limited instances, but we would be technologically interoperable. Partners statewide would have a clear, identifiable "target" for portability into the radio system; either a pre- configured radio bridge and/or a pre-programmed VHF radio. Because RoIP would be built into PSAP dispatching with 100 of 911 call dispatched over RoIP, the cost basis would be the technology investment divided by the total amount of 911 dispatches in a -1,000 given time period. 100$ of the users would utilize RoIP 100 of the time over 100 of the region. characters A fair assumption would be that the majority of users would develop a fair amount of facility with the system based on frequency of use. Connectivity from remote gateways and IP patching of voice and data would require training and regular practice, but access to the technology would be ubiquitous (caveat: ISSI is the RoIP/VOIP standard, bridging RF to IP must adhere to this) so the main hurdle to facility of use would be one of policy. Because D53 capability would be introduced to 15 of 27 potential."nodes". The sites "fire and police" stations would no longer be dependent on DSL, cable, or frame relay. connectivity to the County network. procedure This will result in immediate reduction in connectivity costs with the added. benefit of the ability to transfer large amounts of data from and to .these points. In regards to interoperability, all mutual aid partners with Ethernet connectivity .(and TC/IP as a ' standard) would benefit from the ability to utilize the data transfer capability from these -2,000 "nodes". The main challenge would be developing the policy and procedures to assuage the security characters issues associated with accessing the County's data network: -- '' r, a1. ~~ f~'+4`_ ~"^':'S'~~`F~,.4•~511!•.'Z'- ~, ~' ~+, -: 11".~._:.Zd~:,:A • ~1k~3~s ~ _ ..
