Motorola has launched a smallest TETRA base station for mission critical environments, the TEDS Ready (TETRA Enhanced Data Service) MTS1, along with a new multi-band base station, the high-capacity MTS4E.
The company claims that the new MTS1 TETRA base station is based on a new high-performance hardware platform and is easily deployable for indoor or outdoor coverage applications. It features IP66 weather resistance and provides a range of implementation offerings, including wall- and pole- mounted installation options, suitable for enhanced coverage inside buildings and inside tunnels.
According to Motorola, the MTS4E provides support for E1, IP-over-Ethernet and MPLS (multiprotocol label switching), enabling operators to utilise efficient and lower-cost NxG transmission networking technologies.
In addition, the MTS4E includes eTETRA functionality allowing support for base radios operating in multiple frequency bands utilising the same control channel. Motorola’s TETRA portfolio includes infrastructure offerings, terminals, apps and services.
Jens Kristiansen, vice president and general manager of TETRA Global Products and Solutions at Motorola, said: “Emergency service personnel require quick, seamless transfer of data in mission critical situations. Examples include firefighters viewing building blueprints or police officers filing reports.
“TEDS is now a reality, and we are well placed to offer these enhanced data solutions to emergency personnel. Our infrastructure supports it, and our next generation of mobiles such as the MTM5400 is also TEDS ready.”
