Statewide Law Enforcement Radio System (SLERS)

Florida's Statewide Law Enforcement Radio System (SLERS) is a single, unified digital radio network that meets the radio voice communications needs of state law enforcement officers and other participating agencies throughout the state. SLERS is a 800/700 (aircraft) MHz system consisting of 200 microwave sites, RF multi-sites, and RF simulcast sites. The SLERS all-digital radio network covers over 60,000 square miles (including 25 miles offshore) with 98% mobile coverage and portable coverage in selected areas. &nbsp;Under&nbsp;<a href="http://www.leg.state.fl.us/statutes/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&amp;Search_String=&amp;URL=0200-0299/0282/Sections/0282.709.html" class="underline text-blue-500 transition-colors ease-in-out duration-500 hover:text-blue-400">section 282.709, Florida Statutes</a>, the Department of Management Services was tasked to implement a statewide&nbsp;communications system, and also created the&nbsp;Joint Task Force on State Agency Law Enforcement Communications&nbsp;that assists the Department with the planning, designing and management of the system.The goal of the Statewide Law Enforcement Radio System (SLERS) is to provide state law enforcement personnel with a shared radio system. The current system serves over 20,500 radios in patrol cars, boats, motorcycles and aircraft throughout the State.By providing a common communications system to state law enforcement agencies, the State achieves:<ul class="list-disc list-outside mb-6 ml-6"><li class="mb-2">Effective interagency, interoperable communications;</li><li class="mb-2">Coordinated communications with local public safety entities;</li><li class="mb-2">A viable solution to radio frequency congestion;</li><li class="mb-2">Replacement of older, agency-specific systems without duplication of effort.</li></ul>There are three types of partners on the network:&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dms.myflorida.com/business_operations/telecommunications/public_safety_communications/radio_communications_services/statewide_law_enforcement_radio_system_slers/current_slers_partners" class="underline text-blue-500 transition-colors ease-in-out duration-500 hover:text-blue-400">SLERS Partners</a>, <a href="https://www.dms.myflorida.com/business_operations/telecommunications/public_safety_communications/radio_communications_services/statewide_law_enforcement_radio_system_slers/slers_interoperability_partners" class="underline text-blue-500 transition-colors ease-in-out duration-500 hover:text-blue-400">Interoperability Partners</a>&nbsp;and <a href="https://www.dms.myflorida.com/business_operations/telecommunications/public_safety_communications/radio_communications_services/statewide_law_enforcement_radio_system_slers/slers_affiliate_users" class="underline text-blue-500 transition-colors ease-in-out duration-500 hover:text-blue-400">Affiliate Partners</a>.
