TPL Systèmes MDR (Mic Dual Radio)

With the arrival on the market of new communications networks based on 3GPP standards and 4G/5G networks, the integration of current LMR networks to these new MCX technologies is expected to take place gradually, with a long transition period. To help users with this transition, TPL Systèmes has developed a dual-mode speaker mic to bring MCX and LMR worlds together.

The MDR remote speaker microphone (RSM) can be connected to a smartphone with an MCPTT/MCX app and an LMR radio simultaneously. The user will be able to converse on these two vectors easily and maintain a quality Direct Mode with equipment already in their possession.

The connection between the mic and the Android or iOS smartphone can be made via USB-C cable BT, or custom cable to most makes and models of LMR radios. The product offers a ‘gateway’ functionality allowing it to relay communications from the smartphone to the LMR radio and vice versa.
