New Tait Mobiles Offer Increased Safety, More Choice

Tait continues to expand its TM8000 series of high-performing mobile radios and invest in advanced analogue radio communications technology with the launch of two new products - the TM8260 dual band radio system for the public safety sector and the TM8235 MPT 1327 trunked mobile.

With these new additions, the Tait TM8000 range now offers customers more advanced mobile radio functionality and more choice than ever.

The TM8260 vastly improves users' safety and ability to cooperate at a time when agencies face an increasing need for reliable and effective public safety communications. The TM8235 is a cost-effective trunked mobile ideal for fleets of all sizes.

"Tait has led the way in mobile radios for many years, and our customers can now choose from a much wider selection of innovative and advanced mobile radios," says Michael Chick, Managing Director of Tait Electronics.

"This extension of the TM8000 range demonstrates Tait's commitment to providing increasingly innovative analogue products and solutions, rather than focusing solely on digital. As a leading provider of high quality analogue and APCO P25 digital products and solutions, Tait is able to offer customers the right type of solution to suit their particular needs," he adds.

Tait TM8260 - dual band conventional mobile radio

The TM8260 public safety solution's ability to receive and transmit simultaneously on two frequency bands enables independent groups such as fire, ambulance and police services to quickly and reliably communicate during public safety incidents.

"Without a solution enabling communications across different frequency ranges, these public safety personnel often need to operate a number of radios," Mr Chick says.

This dual band solution features two radio bodies that can be mounted away from the single radio head, allowing more flexibility for vehicle installers particularly where space is limited.

Public safety personnel using the TM8260 solution are also able to extend their communications range using the cross-band linking feature. Staff working away from their vehicles can easily communicate back to base through their portable radios, via cross-band linking in their vehicle's TM8260.

With its superior large alphanumeric display and GPS information service, the TM8260 can also provide safety-enhancing location information to enhance safety for remote teams.

Tait TM8235 - cost-effective MPT 1327 mobile

Tait has also released the TM8235 MPT 1327 trunked mobile, offering customers a choice in TM8000 trunked mobile radios to suit a variety of operators' and users' needs.

The TM8235 has been designed for fleets of all sizes from bus integrators to electric utilities.

The radio features an LCD display and enables 3-digit dialling with large fleet access (0-999). 100 conventional channels and built-in CTCSS and DCS allow users to access a conventional radio network when needed, or when out of range of the trunked network.

The TM8235 can operate on up to four MPT 1327 trunked networks, and also offers MAP27 data capability and Direct Connect GPS as standard.

With exceptional RF performance, rugged design and advanced technology, the TM8235 and TM8260 mobile radios have all the excellent standard features of the TM8000 range.
