Hytera Awarded TETRA Project for International Airports of Thailand
The outstanding performance of Hytera TETRA radios during the trial is critical for winning the contract of AEROTHAI
Aeronautical Radio of Thailand Limited, a state enterprise under the Ministry of Transport and Communications of Thailand, recently announced that Hytera Communications Co., Ltd has won the contract to supply TETRA radios for Suvarnabhumi and Don Muang Airport in Bangkok, Thailand.
Aeronautical Radio of Thailand Limited (AEROTHAI), founded in 1948 by airlines with the consent of the Royal Thai Government, aims to provide air traffic control and aeronautical communication services for airline operations. AEROTHAI built an integrated TETRA system network covering Bangkok International Airports since 2007, and it was used by the ground crews and logistic company for daily operational communications.
Provided by AEROTHAI, Suvarnabhumi and Don Muang Airport in Bangkok, Thailand, among the top 15 busiest airports in the world, have been using Hytera TETRA radios since April 2013 for trial. The use of portable radios PT580H and mobile radios MT680 ensures more convenient and reliable communications for crews in airports. MT680 enables quick access to the TETRA network and roaming services, and the superior voice quality of PT580H is ideal for communications in the clamorous environment of airports. The outstanding performance of Hytera TETRA radios during the trial is critical for winning the contract of AEROTHAI.
It is expected that more TETRA terminals from Hytera will be deployed in these two airports to facilitate their operation in 2014.
