At Hytera, we strive to stay ahead of the curve—anticipating challenges, pushing technological boundaries, and delivering cutting-edge solutions to meet the ever-evolving needs of our customers. That’s why we’re excited to introduce the DS-6250S, our next-generation DMR Trunking Cube Base Station. This state-of-the-art communication system is engineered to enhance reliability, reduce operational costs, and offer seamless scalability for industries such as public safety, emergency response, transportation, energy, and more.

The growing demand for reliable and flexible communication

In today’s fast-paced world, emergency situations—ranging from public safety events to natural disasters and environmental crises—are becoming increasingly frequent. The need for real-time, reliable communication has never been more critical. First responders, organizations, and businesses require seamless connectivity to operate effectively in the most demanding environments.

Traditional base stations often struggle with deployment speed, power consumption, and environmental adaptability. The DS-6250S was designed to overcome these challenges, ensuring uninterrupted mission-critical communications in even the most demanding environments.

Cutting-edge innovation for enhanced efficiency

1. Compact and lightweight design reduces deployment costs

Unlike bulky conventional base stations, the DS-6250S integrates transceivers, controllers, and filters into a single, ultra-compact unit weighing just 16.7 kg with a volume of 20 liters.

This translates to faster, easier installation.

Before: Deploying a traditional base station could take over a week, requiring multiple engineers and heavy lifting equipment.

Now: With the DS-6250S, the same deployment can be completed in just 1-2 days, significantly reducing labor costs and downtime.

2. Energy-efficient operation to reduce costs

Power consumption is a major concern, especially for remote sites where electricity is limited. The DS-6250S consumes less than one-third of the power used by traditional base stations, operating at under 350W.

Lower power demand = Reduced energy costs

Solar-compatible = Ideal for off-grid deployments

For industries operating in mountainous regions, oil fields, or isolated islands, the ability to run on solar power or backup batteries makes the DS-6250S a cost-effective, eco-friendly solution.

3. SDR technology, operation and maintenance more convenient and lower cost

What if your communication needs evolve over time? Traditionally, upgrading a network meant expensive hardware replacements. With SDR technology, the DS-6250S allows software-based upgrades, eliminating the need for costly equipment overhauls.

Scalability: The system can expand to 8 carriers (UHF) or 4 carriers (VHF) without adding extra physical hardware.

Remote Upgrades: New features can be deployed without site visits, reducing maintenance costs.

4. Enhanced coverage and network efficiency

One of the biggest challenges in communication networks is balancing coverage, spectrum efficiency, and signal quality—especially in large cities or complex terrains. The DS-6250S solves this with multi-carrier and DMR trunking simulcast technologies, allowing multiple base stations to share the same frequency.

Benefit: In high-traffic urban areas, where spectrum is scarce, the DS-6250S efficiently increases network capacity without requiring additional frequency licenses.

Expanded Reach: Even with lower transmission power than traditional base stations, the DS-6250S provides wider coverage, thanks to:

Low insertion loss
High receiver sensitivity
Tri-diversity reception for better signal stability

Whether in a dense metropolitan area or a vast rural landscape, users can expect seamless, high-quality communication with fewer dead zones.

Unmatched Durability and Reliability

Extreme weather, dust storms, and lightning strikes—these are real threats to communication infrastructure. That’s why the DS-6250S is built to withstand the harshest conditions:

IP68-rated: Fully dustproof and waterproof, capable of operating in heavy rain, snow, or sandstorms.

Temperature-resistant: Functions in -40°C to +55°C, making it perfect for arctic winters and desert heat alike.

20 kA lightning protection: Ensures safe operation in areas prone to thunderstorms and power surges.

To further guarantee network uptime, the DS-6250S features built-in redundancy with 1+1 backup, ensuring continued operation even in case of hardware failure.

Future-proof and scalable

The world of radio communications is evolving, and Hytera is committed to staying ahead. The DS-6250S is fully compatible with the DMR Trunking Pro and Lite series, ensuring seamless integration into existing networks.

Looking forward, we see the DS-6250S playing a role in next-generation networks, including:

4G/5G integration for hybrid communication networks

Low-orbit satellite connectivity for global coverage in extreme remote areas

With the DS-6250S, you’re not just investing in a base station—you’re investing in a future-ready communication infrastructure.

The launch of the DS-6250S next-gen Cube Trunking Base Station marks a major milestone in Hytera’s mission to revolutionize professional mobile radio systems. By combining:
