Universal Bluetooth® Link (UBL)
The Universal Bluetooth® Link (UBL) is a break-through technology that brings an additional option for Crisis Negotiation Team (CNT) staff to establish communications with a barricaded subject through their existing Hostage/Crisis Negotiations System!
The UBL is quick and easy to set-up and operate:
-
Set-up your existing Hostage/Crisis Communications System as normal (connect the negotiator headsets, monitoring headphones, speakers, recorders, etc…).
-
Pair (wirelessly connect) ANY Bluetooth® enabled cell phone to the UBL.
-
Connect the UBL to Hostage/Crisis Negotiation System’s “landline” input jack with the provided patch cable.
-
Place a call from the Bluetooth® cell phone paired to the UBL to the telephone landline or cell phone number of the barricaded subject.
-
Negotiate.
Similar to a “landline” connection, when the UBL is paired to a cell phone and is connected to a Hostage/ Crisis Communications System, CNT staff can use the paired cell phone to perform a 3-way or “conference call.” NOTE:To perform a “conference call,” the cell phone paired to the UBL MUST have an active 3-way calling feature. 3-way calling is commonly provided standard with cellular network service.
The UBL can also be used to perform what is referred as a Bluetooth® Cellular-to-Throw Phone Link. This function gives CNT staff the ability to introduce a remotely located 3rd Party Intermediary (TPI) from the paired cell phone into the negotiations that are currently taking place with a barricaded subject over the Throw Phone.
During a Bluetooth® Cellular-to-Throw Phone Link operation, CNT staff may disconnect the TPI call at ANY time without disconnecting/disrupting the communicating taking place with the subject over the Throw Phone!
The UBL is also equipped with a cell phone “charge” port. This port allows the operator to charge their cell phone’s battery from the UBL’s internal battery during prolonged negotiations.
When fully charged, the UBL’s internal battery can power the actual unit for approximately 50 hours. An unlimited operating type can be achieved by connecting the UBL to external wall outlet.
