2-4 Project 25
What is Project 25?
Project 25 (P25) is a standard for the manufacturing of interoperable digital
2-way wireless communications products. Developed in North America under
state, local and federal representatives and Telecommunications Industry
Association (TIA) governance, P25 is gaining worldwide acceptance for
public safety, security, public service, and commercial applications.
The published P25 standards suite is administered by the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA Mobile and

The published P25 standards suite is administered by the Telecommunications Industry Association (TIA Mobile and
Personal Private Radio Standards Committee TR-8). Radio equipment that demonstrates compliance with P25 is
able to meet a set of minimum requirements to fit the needs of public safety. These include the ability to interoperate
with other P25 equipment, so that users on different systems can talk via direct radio contact. The P25 standard was
created by and for public safety professionals.

What is the Status of P25 Today?
P25 systems are available today and being deployed
globally. Many organizations have mandated that new
