Rohill TetraNode base station infrastructure

Rohill’s TetraNode TETRA infrastructure solution uses standard hardware and software components to produce an economical and powerful system, with a flat network architecture based on nodes that challenges the traditional hierarchical way of building networks. The principles of IP networking are adopted in order to generate flexible network designs, which are scalable from single sites right up to deployment on a nationwide scale.

TetraNode applies soft-switch technology together with an open and reliable real-time Linux operating system to produce a TETRA system in which all functionality is implemented through software, providing numerous benefits including increased flexibility, speed and integration of IP.

The TetraNode Streaming Protocol (TNSP) has been developed to replace IP for the transmission of voice and data between TetraNode eXchanges (TNXs) and TETRA Base Stations (TBSs) due to certain limitations of IP for mission-critical communications. TetraNode is based on a minimum amount of standard PC and networking hardware, which makes it simple to install and maintain.
