Motorola Solutions has revealed its new DIMETRA Connect solution and MXP660 TETRA radio.
According to the provider, its new solution allows frontline responders to automatically switch between land mobile radio (LMR) and broadband networks.
“Our teams can stay connected”
Together, the DIMETRA Connect solution and MXP660 TETRA radio helps teams stay connected to their communications lifeline.
Not only is this key to supporting critical collaboration, but it also enhances productivity and safety.
“The ability to automatically switch from LMR to broadband when we move deep inside buildings or into heavily built-up areas is essential to our missions,” said Mogens Sandberg Brix, Division Officer and Inspector, Greater Copenhagen Fire Department.
“Our teams can stay connected as they fight fires or navigate myriad challenging environments, without losing focus on their priority of protecting life and property.”
The design of DIMETRA Connect protects frontline responders’ focus by automatically switching between Terrestrial Trunked Radio (TETRA) and broadband networks.
This does not require manual intervention, thus maintaining users’ preferred features and talk groups.
The new MXP660 has advanced capabilities, including built-in LTE, AI-trained background noise suppression for clear audio and high power transmission for extended operational range.
“Functionality and usability”
“TETRA will continue to play a central role in mission-critical voice communications for public safety agencies and enterprises,” added Ildefonso De La Cruz Morales, Principal Analyst, Critical Communications, Omdia.
“Innovations like DIMETRA Connect are enabling organisations to invest in a communications roadmap with proven, reliable LMR voice communications at the centre, leveraging broadband to extend coverage whilst reducing up-front infrastructure costs.”
“The design of the new MXP660 builds upon the functionality and usability of the dependable TETRA devices that Motorola Solutions customers are accustomed to,” continued De La Cruz Morales.
“Users maintain their existing workflows and gain the benefits of built-in LTE and enhanced connectivity via DIMETRA Connect, all without additional training requirements.”
Denmark’s Sikkerhedsnet (SINE) network will be among the first to deploy DIMETRA Connect.
