Powertrunk reiterates that its FCC-Approved TETRA Equipment can be used in all bands under part 90 rules
No waiver is needed for PowerTrunk to sell its TETRA LMR devices in the United States for those bands for which it has been certified.
PowerTrunk Inc. and its parent company Teltronic S.A.U., a global leader in land mobile radio, confirm again that the company's TETRA land mobile radio devices have full FCC authorization to be marketed and deployed in the United States without any restrictions.
"We've received a number of enquiries to clarify the impact on PowerTrunk of the recent FCC 'Order on Clarification' issued last September 28. I would like to state that the restrictions imposed by this Order to non-Part-90-compliant TETRA equipment are not applicable to PowerTrunk equipment. PowerTrunk does not need any waiver to market and deploy our FCC-certified Part-90-compliant TETRA devices. Therefore, any waiver granted in favor of non-compliant equipment along with its associated restrictions is irrelevant to PowerTrunk," stated Jose M. Martin, Executive Vice President & Chief Operating Officer of PowerTrunk. "Our FCC type acceptance certificates are as good as a one-dollar bill so we don't need any further endorsement in the same way as nobody needs a confirmation from Ben Bernanke to buy a coffee".
PowerTrunk received FCC type acceptance certificates under Part 90 rules for its TETRA base station repeaters (BSR75), handsets (HTT-500) and mobiles (MDT-400) in the 409-430 MHz, 450-470 MHz and 806-870 MHz bands in 2009 and 2010. Certification for other bands is expected in the near future.
