Communications Equipment Management Unit
The Communications Equipment Management Unit is responsible for purchasing, disseminating, and repairing mobile and handheld radios, mobile data computers, and cellular telephones for all deputy sheriff’s and Sheriff’s Office vehicles. Additionally, this unit manages the operation of the Sheriff’s Office recently upgraded paging system. We extend these services to several other County departments and many non-County personnel that partner with the Sheriff’s Office.
In addition to the preceding assignments, this unit manages and deploys the Mobile Communications Command Post on a variety of events. These events include but are not limited to SWAT callouts, missing persons, Search & Rescue operations, and numerous community events. This vehicle is equipped with the latest communications technology, and is ready to roll at a moments notice.
Amazingly, a radio technician and radio technician supervisor fulfills these duties. A sergeant oversees the unit.
