Amper Group has modernized with its Voice Communications System (VCS) over IP, Ulysses V5000i, the first 10 spanish airports to evolve their analogue technology to VoIP: A Coruña, Alicante, Almeria, Bilbao, Gran Canaria, Ibiza, Palma de Mallorca, Santander, San Sebastián and Tenerife South. Adding two more currently under implementation: Lanzarote and Vigo.

The Ulysses V5000i system from the Amper Group is a VCS based on VoIP (Voice over IP) technology that manages critical ground/air and ground/ground communications for operators in all air traffic management environments.

It has been designed in compliance with all international standards EUROCAE ED-137 and its main features are: modular design that can be fully adapted to the customer’s needs, intensive use of COTS elements and platforms in the system, smart redundancy of radio sets (M+N) for a single frequency, flexible architecture, meaning that the transition occurs without impacting the user, proprietary development of dedicated cards for the interface, guaranteed support over a 10-year period; furthermore the Ulysses V5000i is one of the highest availability on the market with hardware redundancy and hot-pluggable mechanisms featuring a redundant Ethernet network with a virtual IP and fail-safe architecture.

The mature technology of the Ulysses V5000i meets all operational requirements and allows for increased reliability, availability and flexibility of aeronautical communications management.

Amper Group covers these projects from its subsidiary Núcleo Communications and Control, which is immersed in the process of full integration with Amper Systems and is already part of the Security, Communications and Defense division of the Group.
