When an incident report, the dispatch log and the camera footage all have to match, they can't come from three systems that were never designed to talk to each other.
Hiscall designs, installs and supports phone systems, dispatch-ready VoIP, CCTV, access control, cabling and secure records storage for law enforcement agencies nationwide. One certified team installs it, and the same team answers when you call.

- 24/7 on contract
A single incident can touch dispatch, a responding unit's radio and camera footage, an access-controlled evidence room, and records another agency needs to pull, before it is closed out. Most vendors sell you one piece of that path and leave the rest to someone else. Hiscall designs the whole path, from the handset to the camera to the records server, and supports all of it with the same certified technicians who installed it.
How it fits together
One incident, and everything that has to stay connected behind it
When it is designed as one path, a records request or a joint operation with another agency is routine. When it is not, every incident becomes an exercise in reconciling systems that were never built to share information.
The call
A call comes in and becomes a dispatched incident. Computer-aided dispatch integration and dependable VoIP phone systems route it and get resources moving without delay.
The response
Real-time video from CCTV and access control gives responding officers and command staff a picture of the scene as it develops, not just a description relayed over the radio.
The record
Call and screen recording capture the interaction, and cloud storage keeps the resulting records and evidence secure and accessible from any location, not locked in one building's server room.
The link
Unified voice, video and messaging on IP-based systems let your records and communications interoperate with the systems other agencies already run, instead of stopping at your own network's edge.
Why one team
What actually changes when one team owns the whole system
An agency that buys phones, cameras and records storage from three vendors owns the gaps between them too. Here is what that costs in practice.
| Where it counts | Hiscall | Separate vendors per system |
|---|---|---|
| Installation | One team, one schedule | Coordinated by you, across contractors |
| Support calls | A Hiscall employee who knows your facility | Whichever vendor you guess is responsible |
| System integration | Designed together from the start | Bolted together after the fact, if at all |
| Records & evidence requests | One point of accountability | Finger-pointing between vendors |
| Everything else | Cabling, cameras, AV, IT, all included | Another vendor, another contract |
Built for law enforcement, not adapted to it
Four capabilities that general low voltage contractors typically do not carry.
- Computer-aided dispatch integration. Phone and communication systems built to work with CAD, so calls, resources and incidents stay connected instead of living in separate tools.
- Real-time video. CCTV and access control feeds give command staff and responding officers a current picture of a scene or facility, not a report after the fact.
- Secure cloud storage for records & evidence. Data, records and evidence stored securely and accessible from any location, so an officer or investigator isn't tied to one building to pull a file.
- Interoperable, IP-based communications. Unified voice, video and messaging built on IP-based systems that can interoperate with other agencies, instead of stopping at your own network's edge.
What we install
Every system across the department, from one team
Most agencies buy each system from a different vendor, then spend years getting them to talk to each other. We put them on one design and one support relationship.
Phone systems & call recording
Cloud and premise-based VoIP built for dispatch integration, with call and screen recording so an interaction is on record without anyone remembering to press a button.
TelecommunicationsCabling and infrastructure
Copper and fiber optic low voltage infrastructure installed by BICSI-certified technicians, sized for a single precinct or a multi-facility department.
Network CablingCameras, access control & ID badging
CCTV and video surveillance, access control and door intercom systems at every controlled entry, plus ID badge printing for staff and visitors, under Tennessee CCTV license #1405.
Security SolutionsWireless networks & servers
Wireless network infrastructure and server hardware sized to a facility or an entire department, backed by the same team that installed the cabling underneath it.
IT Services & Data NetworkingDigital signage & emergency alerting
Digital signage, video walls and emergency awareness alerting that keep staff and the public informed, at the front desk on a routine day and departmentwide during an incident.
Audio VisualSound, paging & presentation systems
Overhead paging, sound systems and projectors or screens for briefing rooms, training spaces and public-facing areas.
Audio VisualAgencies we work with every week
From a single-building municipal department to a multi-facility sheriff's office, with the same certified technicians on every job.
- Municipal police departments. Phones, dispatch-integrated communications, CCTV and access control scoped to a single station or several precincts.
- County sheriff's offices. Systems built to cover a main office, satellite facilities and detention areas under one design.
- Dispatch & communications centers. Reliable dial tone, wireless networks and servers built around uptime, since a dispatch center going down is not an option.
- Campus & specialized law enforcement units. Access control, CCTV and cabling scoped to a campus police office or a specialized unit's facility rather than sold as an enterprise package.
How we work
Five steps, and you know who to call at each one
Survey
We come to you at no charge, look at what is already in place, and tell you honestly what should be replaced and what has life left in it.
Design
You get a documented scope and clear pricing. For a multi-facility department, we design one standard that repeats cleanly across every location.
Install
Installation is coordinated around shift schedules and secure-area access, not around us.
Train
On-site sessions for dispatch, records and IT staff, repeated as often as your team needs it.
Support
You call us directly, not a queue, with 24/7/365 emergency response and unlimited moves, adds and changes.
Local technicians, coverage across the Midsouth and beyond
Two Tennessee offices put a certified Hiscall employee close by. Cloud-managed systems let us monitor, configure and resolve a great deal remotely, so a multi-facility department costs you far less time than it used to.
- Dickson. Corporate headquarters and 25,000 square foot distribution facility, serving Middle Tennessee and the Nashville region. Reach the Dickson office directly at (615) 740-7771.
- Knoxville. Branch office at 4620 Old Broadway, serving East Tennessee since 2001, with the same certified technicians and the same emergency response. Reach the Knoxville office directly at (865) 862-4650.
- You reach a person. You work directly with a trained, certified, Hiscall-badged employee. Your needs are not outsourced to a call center overseas.
- Beyond our two offices. We also have employees based in West Tennessee and Kentucky, and we support customers throughout the Midsouth region and several nationwide.
