Dispatch Operator Position - The MCC 5500 dispatch operator position is the interface between the dispatcher and
the console system. Each operator position consists of PC, dispatch application program, CAB, and operator
accessories. The operation is controlled via a mouse and/or touch screen monitor. It provides a means for a dispatcher
to communicate to field units and telephone caller. It also allows dispatchers to control and monitor multiple channels of
radio activity, patch various channels together, and send pages. Each operator position is connected to a CAB and
CES.
Workstation - The MCC 5500 dispatch operator positions are Window 7-certified Pentium workstations. Each
workstation connects to a CAB. The workstations do not come with monitors; these must be ordered separately. NOTE:
The use of multi-touch monitors with MCC 5500 Dispatch Console is not supported.
NOTE: Motorola will no longer be shipping NEW workstations with Vista OS (TT2289) for the MCC 5500 Dispatch
Console (Operator Position and CSDM). New workstations (TT2537) ordered for the MCC 5500 Dispatch Console
(Operator Position and CSDM) will ship with Window 7 OS.
Dispatch Application Program - features an intuitive, easy-to-use Graphical User Interface (GUI) that runs under
Microsoft Windows 7 (32-bit) with SP1 operating system utilizing the industry standard PC platform. The GUI is
extremely flexible and can be tailored to any given operation and can be configured on a per operator basis.
CAB - provides the interface between the MCC 5500 dispatcher PC and CES. It is the connection point for the operator
accessories. There is one CAB per console position. The CAB uses an external power supply (similar to the power
supplies used with laptop computers) which must be connected to an AC power source. Power is provided by a single
120/240Vac, 50/60Hz external power supply. The CAB connects to the CES using either a 50' or 100' cable. However,
there are many cases when other lengths are more suitable, in these instances the project team would obtain a cable
independently. The maximum cable length supported is 4000'. For cable specification please consult the MCC 5500
Product Planner.
Operator Accessories - Operator accessories are sold separately from CAB.
 Desktop Speakers (required) - at least 2 external speakers at each OP (select and unselect), up to 6 monitor
speakers can be connected to each CAB.

Standard Gooseneck Microphone.
 Headset Jack Box (optional) - supports up to 2, required for headset operation.
