Flexibility
NEXEDGE® supports both NXDN™ digital and analogue modes via a common radio technology, creating a self-paced migration path to accommodate budgetary, administrative, organisational, and time-line demands.
Conventional Mixed Mode
NEXEDGE® extends the life of current radio system assets. Capable of both conventional analogue and digital operation, NEXEDGE® radios can talk to both old and new radios. Current analogue and NXDN™ digital fleets can share the same frequency in conventional Mixed Mode, providing uninterrupted service as long as needed and a straightforward migration path as ageing analogue fleets are replaced with digital.
Mixed Mode operation is available in base, repeat, and direct modes in the following bandwidth combinations: 25, 20* or 12.5 kHz analogue with 12.5 or 6.25 kHz NXDN™ (25 kHz mode-capable equipment is only available where permitted by government regulation).
Additionally, all NXDN™ digital modes use the same Class-C power amplifiers and site management equipment used for current analogue stations, ensuring high ROI and a wide range of supplier choices.

Trunked Channel Shared Mode
NEXEDGE® trunked system traffic channels can be shared with existing external analogue conventional or analogue trunked logic controllers, extending service to analogue fleets as they transition to NXDN™ trunking.
Telephone Interconnect System
Connected to a NEXEDGE® trunked system, a Telephone Interconnect Adapter converts analogue voice to/from digital, enabling two-way communication between a telephone and a radio.
OAA: Over-the-Air-Alias
A calling unit’s User ID (UID) alphanumeric alias is sent over the air and displayed on the receiving unit’s LCD, so there is no need to program every fleet alias in every radio.
OTAP: Over-The-Air Programming
The NEXEDGE® OTAP Manager software (KPG-150AP) provides wireless programming for subscriber units in the field. Over-the-air programming results in huge savings for large fleets, which previously incurred considerable travel, labour and fuel costs, as well as suffering lost productivity from radio downtime.
