As part of the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC)’s commitment to delivering a first-class medical emergency service, the Ambulance Radio Programme (ARP) has extended its modernization plans by awarding the contract to Sepura to deliver the next generation of handheld mission-critical communications devices for front-line paramedics.
The contract covers the supply of the new SCL3 broadband hand-portable device to Ambulance Services across England.

The SCL3 hand-portable device will maintain communications on the existing Airwave TETRA network as well as encompass the benefits of broadband data and a migration path to ESN.
Designed for mission-critical use, the SCL3 addresses the need for optimum performance even in the harshest of environments and working practices of ambulance staff.
