Exhibit C-1 <br /> System Description <br /> Introduction (Technology Overview) <br /> City of Decatur, Illinois has requested Motorola to present a proposal for City of Decatur's <br /> console upgrade and channel expansion so as to integrate City of Decatur into the existing Illinois <br /> Statewide System, also known as the STARCOM2] system. Motorola is pleased to present the City of <br /> Decatur with this console upgrade proposal for an ASTR0�25 STARCOM21 System Add-on. This <br /> solution is designed to support the City of becatur's current and future communication needs. The <br /> proposed add-on equipment will leverage off of the existing STARCOM21 infrastructure to the maximum <br /> possible extent and will add components as required to meet the requirements of the City of Uecatur. <br /> City of Decatur has agreed to bring four of its frequencies, from its existing SMARTNET system, on to <br /> the STARCOM2l system. Motorola will add the four base stations and any associated RF equipment to <br /> its STARCOM21 sites in the City of Decatur area to accommodate the City of Decatur's active users and <br /> their traffic needs. City of Decatur has agreed to buy 418 XTS2500 Model 1.5 portables. <br /> The coverage of the STARCOM2l network will not change with the additional site equipment and will <br /> be what is cun•ently provided in the Ciry of Decatur by the three STARCOM21 sites located in the Macon <br /> County. <br /> City of Decatur's Console system will be upgraded so as to get integrated with the STARCOM21 system. <br /> Console system's upgrades include eight new operator position computers, new hardware to connect to <br /> the STARCOM21 and new software versions to match (and be compatible)with that of STARCOM2l <br /> system's. The dispatch site will be divided between 2 CEBs, with one of the CEBs requiring a Tl X-bus <br /> connection (two T1 lines) and the other CEB requiring a Tl line to connect to the STARCOM21 Zone 2 <br /> Master site located at the City of Springfield. <br /> During the integration with STARCOM21,the eight operator positions become a part of the Console <br /> LAN and then require a fractional Tl connection to the STARCOM21 ZONE 2 Master site. City of <br /> Decatur's proposed NICE recording system also requires a T1 connection to the STARCOM21 ZONE 2 <br /> Master site. To save City of Decatur the cost of a Tl iine, a channel bank is included in the design to <br /> combine the two potential T1 lines into one Tl line. <br /> Eight back-up control stations are also included in the proposal, in case the dispatch console system loses <br /> connection with the STARCOM21 Master site. Because of space limitations, the eight back-up control <br /> stations will be installed in the penthouse and they wil( be connected to the Desksets located next to each <br /> of the eight operator positions. <br /> Integration with the STARCOM2l system will allow the City of Decatur to use the features offered by <br /> the STARCOM21's ASTRO�25 Trunking system and be truly interoperable with various other public- <br /> safety agencies. <br /> Assumptions <br /> ✓ City of Decatur, IL will provide primary and backup (UPS) power at the dispatch site to support <br /> the new equipment. <br /> ✓ City of Decatur, IL will provide all the connectivity(Tl lines) between the dispatch site and the <br /> STARCOM21 Zone 2 Master Site. <br /> ✓ No Network Management Terminal is quoted, <br /> ✓ At the time of Channel expansion, CiTy of Decatur's dispatch console site will be upgraded to <br /> integrate with STARCOM21 System. <br /> CSA.NoESS.FINAL.4-8-08 2 <br /> Motorola Contract No.08-17033/LF <br />
