We want to efficiently add channels to our site/system.

Check out NEXEDGE® Gen2 Direct Frequency Assignment:

  • All subscriber units are automatically notified whenever any new frequencies (channels) are assigned to the network. No radios have to be called in for reprogramming, and downtime is zero.
  • Flexible system expansion.

We want to remotely monitor network equipment.

Check out NEXEDGE® Gen2 Network Manager System & Client:

  • Network Manager System & Client enables comprehensive monitoring of large-scale systems with multiple access points, multiple users.
  • Network assets are managed using the SNMP protocol, while all IP assets are managed with a single program.
  • In addition to server and repeater monitoring, IP asset and network monitoring is also possible, including network traffic and load, network path, subscriber registration, latency, event and error monitoring.
  • Also: network topology mapping; log acquisition and analysis; call log acquisition and analysis by group, site and call type; reporting and alert settings.

We want to ensure console calls from the dispatch center get higher priority than other communications.

Check out NEXEDGE® Gen2 call pre-emption/interruption for consoles:

  • The console can to take over channels if no free traffic channel is available ? ideal for airport control towers and taxi dispatch centers.
  • When a console makes a call using pre-emption, subscriber units will stop transmission/reception and the console will be able to communicate directly with their users.
  • Call interruption enables emergency alerts or instructions to be issued (public safety/works applications).

We need a big increase in the number of radios that allow management of GPS positional data.

Check out the increased GPS data capacity and GPS report channel of NEXEDGE® Gen2:

  • NEXEDGE® Gen2 maximizes traffic/data capacity while reducing GPS data processing time thanks to improvements to the air protocol.
  • A GPS reporting traffic channel & reporting frame are assigned to each SU upon registration.
  • Ideal for organizations that depend on GPS, such as utility companies.

In emergencies we want to be able to assign a specific channel for first responders to communicate on.

Check out the Secured Priority Channel:

  • A secured channel can be assigned to a specific traffic channel for a specific group, console, or other peripheral. Members of such a group will have access at all times ? ideal for public safety applications.
  • A secured repeater channel can be assigned to a specific group.

We need to make maximum use of repeater channels within our site; we want to use many radios, but we have only a few frequencies.

1. Check out Dual Functional Channel (non-dedicated control channel):

  • The control channel temporarily takes over the role of a traffic channel, and vice versa, to maintain continuous operation. This flexibility increases air capacity.
  • Dual Functional Channel minimizes frequency use and maximizes traffic.
  • This also maintains an even load distribution on the repeaters.

We only need single-site trunking.

Check out decentralized trunking:

  • All equipped channels can be assigned to traffic, like analog LTR trunking.
  • A decentralized trunked radio system can be operated under the FCC FB6 station class code.

We want to connect conventional repeaters via IP to extend coverage.

Check out NEXEDGE® or DMR Conventional IP Network:

We want to be able to remotely block unauthorized site/system access.

Check out ESN-based stun/kill:

  • On access, the electronic serial number of a radio is automatically checked; if an unauthorized person is trying to access the network, you can automatically initiate a stun or kill to disable the radio.
  • This allows you to prevent unauthorized access and/or theft of radios, as well as protecting against loss resulting from unauthorized access.

We need sophisticated encryption to ensure secure communications.

KENWOOD digital radios offer DES (56-bit) and AES (256-bit).

NX-5200/5300/5400 and NX-5700/5800/5900 models are equipped with DES as standard, but an optional AES board can also be installed for enhanced security.
