Event Communications

Tetra Radios

Digital Trunked Tetra radios are the latest in large area and multi site communications technology. Our systems are specifically designed for short term live events.

Communications are often under estimated in their complexity and importance for large public events. It's not just delivering the show, it's ensuring the public are kept absolutely safe at all times, especially in times of an emergency. With the ever increasing complexity of live events it is imperative that everyone can be kept informed and coordinated throughout the event no matter where on the site they are.

As part of our complete communications systems, we now have in stock digital trunked Tetra radios to replace the traditional analogue PMR and PMR trunked systems. The small, lightweight handsets have built in noise cancellation DSP as standard which work with the built in microphone as well as any accessory that is attached. The digital signal transmission not only results in crystal clear sound wherever on the site you are but also an extended coverage with the built in error correction. Full grouping and priority levels can be configured for the system directly from the base so handsets do not need to be recalled for re-programming. Users can belong to multiple groups as just listeners or with the ability to talk to the group. Full address book capability is available on every handset either pre-programmed in advance with all user's individual numbers or left for the user to program.

The base station requires minimal space and power requirements and features a 2 hour internal UPS backup. Built into Peli cases makes the base equipment weatherproof and quickly deployable.

Integration into other communications technologies including hard wired or alternate radio systems are readily available.

System Highlights
  • Increased Range over traditional trunked / PMR systems
    With digital error correction and high sensitivity receivers crystal clear communications are possible over a greater distance than with traditional analogue systems
  • Greatly improved speech intelligibility
    as every handset has built in noise cancellation DSP. Expensive noise cancelling headsets are no longer required as every handset digitally cancels noise.
  • Multiple call groups
    Each handset can be programmed to belong to as many or as few groups as required.
  • Individual calls
    By dialling a specific handset's number you can talk directly to one person without anyone else hearing. For added convenience we are able to program each handset's address with individual names
  • Much lighter than traditional GP340s / GP680
    GP340 / GP680 428g. Tetra Handset 239g.
  • Extended battery life
    Of 16 hours on a single charge
  • Multiple site coverage
    enabling seamless communications between sites long distances apart via IP over CAT5 or ADSL link. All features work the same as between handsets on the same site
  • Full duplex conversations
    are optionally available across all handsets - talk as if using a mobile phone
  • Text messaging
    is optionally available from handset to handset
  • Emergency calls
    can be initiated from any handset enabling the user to communicate immediately to the necessary handsets
  • 1 hour deployment
    from arriving on site. All handsets will be pre-configured to allow instant use
  • Full power backup
    The base station has a built in 2 hour UPS in case of mains supply failure. We also can provide a generator should permanent mains be unavailable
  • Integration into other communication systems
    4 wires can be integrated into the Tetra system to enable Party Lines or Key Panel matrix systems to be able to directly communicate to groups of handsets
  • Onsite support distribution
    and equipment tracking will help prevent any radios or accessories being lost during the event
  • All standard accessories
    are available for the tetra handsets including Peltor ear defending headsets
