Terrestrial Trunked Radio (TETRA)

Technologies conforming to the TETRA European standard for open digital private mobile radio offer clear benefits to many businesses, particularly those operating critical commercial public access mobile radio (PAMR) systems.

Because the standard was originally developed in consultation with the emergency services, TETRA networks offer outstandingly high security and resilience, with dual encryption, an impressive range of network connectivity options and direct mode operation (DMO). Now that the technology has been firmly established, prices have fallen significantly, widening the appeal of TETRA to businesses seeking a highly flexible, efficient, secure and robust solution.
