One Radio with Multi-Protocol Support
Customise at Will
Two-way radio environment of retailers, companies and factories is often mixture of digital and analogue FM, or only analogue FM and contemplating which digital radio to adopt in the future. The NX-3000 Series offers future-proof flexibility with support for both NXDN and DMR digital air interfaces (included as standard) as well as FM analogue - all in a single radio. A desired digital protocol can be selected at will, giving you the freedom to migrate to digital or expand your digital environment further at your own pace. Also, it offers unique capability to add or delete functions at will.
- NXDN Digital Protocol
In addition to the narrow 12.5 kHz support, the NXDN protocol can fit into the very narrow 6.25 kHz bandwidth using FDMA technology. Ensuring excellent spectrum efficiency, wide coverage and high scalability, it provides expansion for not only statewide but also interstate: In addition to NXDN Conventional, NXDN Type-C Trunking and Gen 2 Trunking offer enhanced features, flexibility and performance, including the ability to link up to 1,000 sites.
- DMR Digital Protocol
Making use of existing infrastructure, DMR is an excellent, cost- effective solution for simple systems. Thanks to 2-slot TDMA, DMR can obtain 2 talk paths within 12.5 kHz bandwidth, effectively doubling the capacity for a single license and/or repeater. DMR Tier II (conventional) and Site Roaming are supported, as well as Tier III Trunking.
FM Analogue
FM analogue protocol is offered in 25 kHz* and narrow 12.5 kHz channel spacing. Conventional and LTR systems are offered including QT/DQT, DTMF 2-tone/ 5-tone, MDC-1200 and KENWOOD's own FleetSync® signaling**.
*Some limitations apply in certain regions when configuring wide channel spacing.
** Signaling availability varies depending on the region
Mixed Digital & FM Analogue Operation
For gradual migration at you own pace, the NX-3000 radios that are set to Mixed Mode will automatically respond to calls from either digital or FM analogue by indicating an icon on the LCD display.
Designed to Go with All Sizes and Shapes
Capability to operate in digital protocol allows extending your channel capacity. The NX-3000 radios are designed to fit in different systems, from shopping mall or hospitality setting using conventional digital system in NXDN or DMR, to wider multi-site trunking systems using IP networking such as NXDN Type-C and Gen2 that extend across a campus or plant, even as wide as state/province or nationwide.
