Introduction

The Tait TM9155R mobile is a P25-compliant radio in the VHF (136-174
MHz) frequency range with 110 W transmit power output. It consists of a
standard TM9100 mobile enclosed in a strong chassis on top of which is an
external RF amplifier. The TM9155R comes complete with remote control
head, microphone, and install kit. An optional base plate and cover provide
secure ‘quick-release’ mounting and additional protection against water and
physical impact. The TM9155R is already fitted with an Ignition Sense kit.

The TM9155R is designed to be trunk-mounted, with the remote control
head mounted in the vehicle cabin.
