1.2 Firmware Applications
The TB9300 operates in DMR/MPT networks.
1.2.1 Base Station Features
The following are lists of base station features available in both DMR/MPT
firmware and non-specific applications:
DMR/MPT ■ Fully compliant with the DMR conventional (Tier 2) and trunked
(Tier 3) standards. They can therefore interoperate with any similarly
compliant radios.
■ Analog conventional repeater operation
■ MPT operation as a control or traffic channel transceiver in an MPT-IP
network, including standalone operation
■ Digital simulcast operation
■ Support for an analog, 600 Ohm connected repeater in an analog
conventional network with CTCSS or DCS subaudible signaling
■ Simplex operation with antenna delay
Simplex operation applies to analog conventional operation only. DMR
operation does not support simplex.
Non-Application
Specific
■ Configuration, alarm monitoring, fault diagnosis, syslog capture, and
feature and firmware upgrades can be managed remotely from a PC
running a web browser. Alarms can be reported via SNMP traps,
allowing integration with an SNMP-based network management
system.
■ An integrated wiring solution is provided for the system control bus and
DC power connections to each module in the subrack
■ Reciters (receiver/exciter modules) can be replaced without affecting
the operation of other reciters in the same subrack
■ Rugged construction with generous heatsinks and fan-forced cooling
for continuous operation from – 30° C to + 60° C (– 22° F to + 140° F)
1.3 Firmware Application Details
In a DMR conventional network, the base station can operate as a stand-
alone repeater, or as a member of a multi-site system (under the supervision
of a DMR conventional channel controller). Since DMR provides two
concurrent logical channels (timeslots) for each radio frequency (physical
channel), the same frequency can be accessed simultaneously, one in each
timeslot. Base stations on different sites can be linked together to form
