MTS1 TETRA base station

The small, flexible and yet extremely powerful MTS1 offers network operators a comprehensive coverage solution that can be rapidly installed and commissioned.

The MTS1 small rugged form factor, IP66 weather resistant enclosure, and ergonomic offers a wide variety of implementation options. Be it for indoor or outdoor wide area coverage applications, the MTS1 provides complete flexibility, covering wall and pole mounted installations.

The MTS1 also ensures complete end-to-end security with full support for static, dynamic and group based air interface encryption, authentication and end-to-end encryption.

This level of security is maintained even when there is a site link failure causing the base station to operate in local site trunking mode.

Features and benefits

Greater Levels of Resilience & Robustness
As the powerful MTS1 supports the full functionality of a TETRA base station, service is not dependent on wide area cells. High availability solutions can be readily enabled by simply connecting two MTS1 base stations to create a highly resilient two-carrier configuration.

Congestion Management

  • Controlled mobility between wide area cells and micro cells
  • Subscriber Class (Attract Users) and Valid Sites (Prevent Users) mechanisms already available

Designed for Reliability and Low Maintenance

  • Full network and alarm management of device
  • Automatic Interference Detection and Correction
  • Withstands wide ambient temperature form -40 to +55 Celsius
  • Traffic re-routed in the event of link failure
  • Required battery capacity and heat dissipation is low due to excellent power efficiency, and with a strong integrated battery charger, power supply costs are kept to an absolute minimum

Additional Capacity

  • Low enough RF power for in-building / near-building deployments enables re-use of frequencies
  • Micro cells can take the load off of wide area cell:
    • Mobility, Security and SDS
    • Telephony, Individual Call and Packet Data

Lower Total Cost of Ownership

  • Support for IP-over-Ethernet transmission technologies
  • Includes native support for MPLS as well as traditional E1 connectivity
  • Existing IP backbone can be leveraged to significantly reduce operational costs
  • Direct AC power input eliminated the need for expensive rectifiers and simplifies installation and deployment
  • Top of tower mounting capability requires shorter cables and reduces power costs
