Airbus Defence and Space Tactilon Dabat smart radio

Airbus Defence and Space has launched the Tactilon Dabat smart radio, a fully rugged smartphone and TETRA handheld radio in one device.

Featuring a large 4.7″ touch screen, the smart radio is suitable for accessing smart apps, even while wearing gloves, and also offers relevant modules found in other TETRA radios. It is interoperable and can work on any standard TETRA network.

In addition to the push-to-talk button, users benefit from a long-lasting, removable and rechargeable battery ensuring that they stay connected during long incidents. The audio processing is designed for professional operation and enables loud and clear voice communication. Front and back cameras also allow images to be captured, while the device can be worn on the lapel in order to capture videos and send them to a control centre or to colleagues.

The product is rugged and both dustproof and waterproof with Ingress Protection ratings IP65 and IP67. All information within the smart radio is encrypted and protected against threats.
