2. ATIS Board of Directors’ Meeting October 20, 2011 PSRA – Initial Findings & Next Steps October, 2014 Summary of Energy & Utilities Discussion September 24 th task force meeting focused on energy and electrical utilities applications Attendees included Utilities Telecom Council (presenter) and other sector representatives from NRECA and NPPD Detailed discussion on core set of applications, utility and energy requirements and transition challenges Most applications include one or more public leased analog circuits and carrier TDM circuit Other stakeholder organizations identified – most already on ATIS’s Outreach program 2

3. ATIS Board of Directors’ Meeting October 20, 2011 PSRA – Initial Findings & Next Steps October, 2014 Energy and Utilities Applications Protective Relaying - isolate faults; station-to-station transmission protection Special Protection Schemes – station-to-station transmission protection (using special protection schemes – can require multiple telecom channels) Synchrophasor Data – retrieval of phasor data for monitoring, storage and dispatch Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) – transmission of data to network headend and dispatch center Radio Control and Dispatch – radio/voice communications between dispatch and employees/vehicles Telephone Lines – support voice telephones between locations 3

4. ATIS Board of Directors’ Meeting October 20, 2011 PSRA – Initial Findings & Next Steps October, 2014 Specialized Requirements – Energy & Utilities Circuits Bandwidth – For protection applications, can vary from 64-256 kbps – SCADA applications are generally lower rate (9.6 – 19.2 kbps typical) – Synchrophasor can range up to 1.5 Mbps Latency – Protective relay, special protection and synchrophasor have most restrictive requirements (some in sub-msec to 4 msec range) – SCADA less restrictive Jitter – Requirements vary by protection manufacturer – 10 msec typical for Synchrophaser Reliability and Security – Protection applications require highest reliability, but all > 99% – SCADA requires very high level of security 4

5. ATIS Board of Directors’ Meeting October 20, 2011 PSRA – Initial Findings & Next Steps October, 2014 Migration Challenges – Energy & Utilities Biggest Challenges moving to IP or new media – Propagation delay, latency reliability, security, equipment investments, different carrier approaches Potential Benefits – New technology, industry movement to IP, greater capacity supports increasing data, redundancy solutions and primary/secondary back-up General conclusions from discussion – Not a one-step migration: layer 1 (physical transport) and layer 2 (protocol) – Very limited migration to IP solutions to date – SCADA and synchrophasor applications are best near-term opportunities – Any potential solutions must meet specialized transmission requirements and energy sector security and reliability needs 5

6. ATIS Board of Directors’ Meeting October 20, 2011 PSRA – Initial Findings & Next Steps October, 2014 Summary of Alarm Applications Discussion September 10 th task force meeting focused on alarm applications Attendees included Alarm Industry Communications Committee (presenter), and representatives from NFPA, SIA, UTC and the security industry Detailed discussion on core set of unique requirements, trends in alarm industry and relevant fire safety codes Current scope of task force does not explicitly cover residential alarm circuits, but agreed to explore overlap Identified some key related initiatives like FirstNet and ASAP 6

7. ATIS Board of Directors’ Meeting October 20, 2011 PSRA – Initial Findings & Next Steps October, 2014 Alarm Related Applications – Intrusion events and fire alerts to public/private buildings – Public safety communications and alarms on campuses and other secure locations – Alarms and communications on elevator systems – Dispatch console to EMS, Fire, – Firebar Conference Bridge – Base Station Control to EMS, Fire and Police – Private Line Automatic Ringdown circuits for EMS, Fire, Police – Circuit-based paging systems for public safety, i.e. page-out to responders – Residential wireline medical alert alarms linked directly to PSAPs 7

8. ATIS Board of Directors’ Meeting October 20, 2011 PSRA – Initial Findings & Next Steps October, 2014 Key Stakeholder Organizations Identified International Association of Fire Chiefs (IAFC) International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) National Sherriff's Association (NSA) APCO International NENA NPSTC NFPA—NEMA, AFAA, ESA, IAFF NASFM AICC and associated CSAA 8

9. ATIS Board of Directors’ Meeting October 20, 2011 PSRA – Initial Findings & Next Steps October, 2014 Relevant Fire Safety Codes NFPA 72 (National Fire Alarm and Signaling Code)has already addressed the transition to IP in Chapter 26 NFPA 1221 (Standard for the Installation, Maintenance, and Use of Emergency Services Communications Systems ) NFPA 720 (Standard for the Installation of Carbon Monoxide(CO) Detection and Warning Equipment) NFPA 731 (Standard for the Installation of Electronic Premises Security Systems) ASME A17.1 (Safety Code for Elevators and. Escalators) 9

10. ATIS Board of Directors’ Meeting October 20, 2011 PSRA – Initial Findings & Next Steps October, 2014 Challenges to Migration (discussed on 9/10 call) Pass alarm DACT signal formats in an undistorted fashion Ensure Line Seizure is not compromised The ability to provide for our control panels to "see” a telephone line equivalent (voltage and dialtone) VoIP and cable/ISP hardware should have sufficient backup power. 10 AICC discussed characteristics of a managed facilities voice network (MFVN) referenced in NFPA 72-2010.

11. ATIS Board of Directors’ Meeting October 20, 2011 PSRA – Initial Findings & Next Steps October, 2014 Transportation Related Applications ATIS invited targeted transpiration-related associations to Oct. 1 st task force meeting – meeting cancelled due to limited response This application includes railroads, light rail commuter systems, subways and related transit systems – Invitees included AAR and APTA The following list of applications were identified by PSRA-TF: – Circuits that monitor railroad crossings – Extension of underground communications in subways and tunnels – POS swipe machine in underground transportation systems – Emergency communications facilities in passenger stations Issues identified: – Reliability, security, latency, isolated locations, limited commercial power, underground path loss (radio), integration with other public safety needs 11

12. ATIS Board of Directors’ Meeting October 20, 2011 PSRA – Initial Findings & Next Steps October, 2014 FAA Circuits Held discussion during June 25 th task force meeting on issues and challenges related to FAA circuits to towers and alarms Short list of technology challenges identified: – Latency – Current perception of dedicated circuits over TDM – Clocking issues – Security Planning for tests and trials on alternative technology have begun Harris provides solutions in this area and agreed to establish points of contacts, as appropriate 12

13. ATIS Board of Directors’ Meeting October 20, 2011 PSRA – Initial Findings & Next Steps October, 2014 Next Steps for Discussion Determine the need for targeted Transportation related meeting (or other outreach approach) given limited response thus far Best approach for engaging the FAA on airport related applications Plan for identifying roadmap of solutions and alternative media given the “applications” and “requirements” input thus far Begin to discuss the format for communicating the findings and recommendations from the task force (1Q15) Continued Outreach to public safety associations and other relevant organizations as the task force begins to prepare output 13
