PEATER OVERVIEW
Repeater General Applications
The repeater is ideal as a
range extender
, that
can help reach other users in areas that are
normally not covered by a 2-way radio’s range. It
is also very useful to help resolve the common
problem of the communications
“dead spots”
that
are created when there are terrain obstructions
(like hills or trees), concrete building structures or
architectural designs that interfere with the radio
signal
(1)
.
The repeater is designed to satisfy both MIL-
SPEC 810 as well IP55
(2)
level water and dust
ingress
(3)
protection making it a rugged device
can stand harsh environments. Its light weight and
various back-up power options (like alkaline/Li-Ion
Batteries Frames and Vehicle Charger) make this
repeater a perfect portable solution for temporary
(4)
and on-scene applications.
The repeater operates in the UHF 450 – 470 MHz
(with TX/RX 10 MHz separation) band providing
16 channels
(4)
with different pre-programmed
settings. This particular feature allows easy and
quick in field repeater deployment whenever there
is need to setup more than one repeater for
different users’ groups.
Fully and easily programmable, the repeater gives
the flexibility to customize frequencies, codes and
other features according to specific needs
(5)
.
A key advantage for the repeater is that it has
been designed to be compatible with the UHF
RDX 2-way repeater capable radios. Enjoy the
convenience of picking up RDX accessories (high
capacity batteries and programming cables) and
re-use them with your repeater. This clever
interoperability feature allows you to get the most
out of your complete radios and repeater system
solution by offering cloning and programming
among radios and repeaters.
