1.1 Overview
The SFFR-6, also known as the GoBox, is a small form factor, highly portable, self-powered, APCO P25 standalone repeater
and base station capable of delivering analogue and P25 conventional networked and standalone functionality.
The GoBox weighs in at just over 9.0Kgs, and can deliver up to 15W of RF output power from its 2 hot swappable Lithium
Ion rechargeable batteries.
When connected to external AC or DC power source, the GoBox is able to operate continuously while simultaneously
acting as a battery recharger.
Unlike any other portable P25 tactical repeater on the market, the GoBox is also a fully featured networkable base station
that can extend existing fixed station network infrastructure coverage. The GoBox can deliver a full suite of P25 network
services and functionality including support for all P25 call types, supplementary and data services such as AVL and OTAR
when connected to a core network.
GoBox’s can also be networked together when connected to Etherstack’s RFSS Network Controller via its on-board
Ethernet interface. The GoBox can connect to an IP backhaul using Cat5/Cat6 or can connect to an external 3G/4G cellular,
Wi-Fi or Satellite based IP uplink via the Ethernet interface.
Multiple Go Boxes can also be used to provide P25 digital to digital cross-band operation (e.g. VHF and UHF cross-banding),
or P25 digital and analogue interoperability (e.g. UHF P25 & VHF analogue) when used with Etherstack’s RFSS Network
Controller.
To further simplify operation and enable fast deployment and setup, multiple operational configurations can be pre-
programmed and permanently saved into the GoBox for quick selection and activation via the GoBox control dial.
In addition, a default configuration profile can be keyed to a specific duplexer such that on insertion of a duplexer, an
associated default profile can be selected. This feature totally eliminates the need for any configuration in the field and
truly speaks to why we love to call this product … the Go Box !
