Hytera Provides TETRA Technology for Police in Brazilia

The Police of the Federal District (PMDF) (also known as the Police Presidential Federalist) is the law enforcement agency responsible for ostensive policing and maintaining public order in the Brazilian Federal District. With over 13,000 police officers, PMDF may also serve in an auxiliary capacity to support national security operations. Its personnel, similar to those of the Federal District Fire Brigade (CBMDF), are uniformed officers operating under the authority of the Governor of the Federal District.

Challenge

Before 2014, the communication service of PMDF ran under the analogue system provided by Kenwood. Although the local government was struggling to balance budgets to combat the effect of economic crisis, they did not stop the work for modernizing the communications network of PMDF. In 2014, PMDF started to look for new communication suppliers completing the migration from analogue to digital. "The outdated analogue system has limited the efficiency of our daily service. I believe the digital network could facilitate the communication between vehicles and the communication center (CIADE), for example enabling a vehicle in Ceilândia communicate with a car in Planaltina easily and clearly, “said Colonel Nunes, the general commander of PMDF.

Solutions

At the end of 2015, Hytera successfully deployed more than 3, 000 flagship Tetra portable terminals Z1p and mobile TETRA radios MT680 to PMDF in Brasilia, capital of Brazil, for PMDF's routine and special operations. About 1,600 Tetra mobile radios MT680 were installed in police vehicle, 150 MT680 were in the rooms of battalions and the portable radios were divided into 107 group calls for policemen and commander. Hytera supplied the full scope of the bid through its Brazilian subsidiaryHytera Brazil. Besides the equipment, the company also provided services, training and installation support for the customer. Hytera has developed the remote multi program for PMDF's special requirement, and the 3W RF transmit power of Z1p, which is higher than other bidders such as 1.8W of Sepura, were another remarkable advantage.
