MGV-4000 /TETRA Gateway

The TETRA Mobile Radio Gateway from Trans Data Management

The MGV-4000 /TETRA Mobile Gateway provides access to the TETRA network, enabling
communication between mobile subscribers in the TETRA network and a dispatching terminal on
TDMs VoIP communication platform (NIS), or an alternative VoIP system.
Up to 8 external TETRA mobiles can be attached to the MGV-4000 for multiple, simultaneous
connections to the TETRA network. The gateway converts the audio voice stream and the TETRAspecific PEI signalling into VoIP, and standard IP protocols.
The connection via the TETRA Air Interface means that the MGV-4000 is particularly suitable for remote
locations and for ad-hoc applications.
