The interoperability of such NG112 products and services has not been tested in Europe previously leading to this ideal opportunity. This NG112 Emergency Communications Plugtests™ event was a testing campaign based on the use cases developed by ETSI and EENA. It took place from 14-18 March 2016, in Sophia Antipolis, France.16 | THE STANDARD September 2016

The International TETRA awards was rebranded into the International Critical Communications Award to anticipate 5G and next generation networks, which will be a collection of technologies designed to work together with each operating where it is most suited. As the sector becomes increasingly aligned with the wider communications industry thanks to greater use of broadband this approach is likely to become more popular. After the night’s proceedings had drawn to a close one of the judges commented that with the amount of activity and innovation in the industry and the transition towards broadband the event should go from strength to strength.
