Cassidian? They're a huuuuuuuuge defence contractor owned by EADS (who own Eurocopter, Airbus and others). Cassidian owns what was Nokia's TETRA business.

They've rolled out at least one P25 system so far. City of Richardson, Texas:

Splitting hairs, but it's still in the installation/testing phase. The actual repeaters were made by Tait or Harris MA/COM, I forget.

And it's all junk, IMHO. The only thing PlantCML ever made that was worth it's weight in gold was Vesta Standard. The "Centracom" of telephone systems.
