Motorola’s TETRA solution is proven in the most difficult circumstances. Key elements of the solution are: network resilience; fallback solutions; disaster recovery solutions; supporting services and the highest levels of product quality.
System Resilience
Motorola’s TETRA solution offers multiple layers of redundancy to ensure the overall resilience of our solution is best in class.
Fallback Solutions
Provide alternative means of maintaining service in the event of a failure. For example, Motorola’s Local Site Trunking solution maintains secure communications even if the site link is lost.
Distributed IP architecture
Motorola’s distributed IP network is inherently self healing and eliminates the single points of failure found in traditional hierarchical networks.
Disaster Recovery Solutions
Motorola offer a range of class leading disaster recovery solutions to minimise loss of service in the event of a disaster.
Quality and Reliability
Motorola has established processes to ensure the quality and reliability of its products. . Our handsets and accessories for example undergo stringent Accelerated Life Testing to ensure maximum longevity in the field..
Supporting Services
Motorola has a full suite of security services which can also be expanded to cover the customer’s IT networks.
Ensuring AvailabilityMotorola has invested a great deal of effort to ensure the highest level of availability from the resilience of key components to providing effective solutions in the event of a disaster. Examples of the excellence of Motorola’s solution include:
• Built in redundancy for all key elements. For example, the Zone Controller has a redundant configuration with an active and a standby unit. This provides automatic and very fast switchover if there is a critical hardware failure, for example due to a loss of power. This redundancy not only guards against faults, but also allows software upgrades to be performed on-line, thus improving planned as well as unplanned down-time.
• A comprehensive range of supporting services to minimize the chance of service disruption and provide the fastest possible fault resolution.
• All Motorola devices and accessories undergo Motorola Accelerated Life Tests. Accelerated Life Testing simulates 6 years of hard usage in the field to ensure longevity. No other manufacturer voluntarily tests their products to these extremes.
Proven in even the most extreme conditions Motorola’s TETRA solution is tested and proven in the largest networks and under the most extreme operational conditions. For example:
• The United Kingdom – Airwave Service (London bombings and G8 Summit),
• Spain Madrid Municipality (Madrid Police, Fire and Medical Services during Madrid train bombing)
• G8 Summit in Germany 2007
