The TETRA system will comprise three IP-connected base stations from Rohde & Schwarz and more than 30 Sepura TETRA radios. The network will demonstrate the features and functionality of TETRA technology, along with showcasing vendor interoperability and the power of TETRA-enabled applications, a Sepura statement said.
Three local utilities have expressed interest in the technology, said Rick Nielson, president of Nielson Communications. He plans to supply the utilities with mobiles and portables and allow the utility staff to test the coverage. "Basically I’ve been watching this technology for 10 years, and it’s really interesting. It’s amazing actually," Nielson said. Complete Article: Link to Radio Resource International
I've been impressed so far with the audio quality and features that the this technology can offer. It's basically a radio system that has the capability of a cell phone system. Not quite sure yet where Tetra will fit best in the market place but for larger radio users such as Utilities, Public Safety, Rail, and potentially current SMR analog operators it has great potential.
