German air navigation service provider, Deutsche Flugsicherung (DFS) has selected Frequentis’ voice communication system for the tower modernisation project.

Under the agreement, Frequentis will provide its VCS3020X system for nine towers at German airports, including Frankfurt, Leipzig, and Berlin. The new voice communication systems will be capable of supporting ED-137 Voice-over IP (VoIP) technology.

DFS COO Robert Schickling said: “We have awarded the supply of voice communication systems to Frequentis and are confident that their technology and expertise fulfil the demands required of this tower project.

“Over the next five years, nine DFS towers will be equipped with Frequentis VCS allowing us to provide continued safe and efficient tower services across Germany.”
