PowerTrunk, Inc., a subsidiary of Teltronic S.A.U., part of the Sepura Group, announces that Teltronic has been awarded a contract for a first-responder TETRA network for the Mexican State of Mexico through a major local system integrator.

The contract was obtained through its Mexico-based branch Teltronic Mexico. This contract for the State of Mexico follows the successful deployment of a similar TETRA network in the State of Guanajuato in 2014, confirming TETRA as a cutting-edge and highly-suitable technology for public safety in Mexico. The Guanajuato network is currently being expanded through a separate contract.

The scope of supply for the TETRA network comprises two redundant control nodes, 40 site base stations, 2,000 Sepura SRG3900 mobile radios, 3,200 Sepura STP9000 hand portables, 65 Sepura SRG radio dispatchers and a digital voice recording system. The system will enhance public safety and emergency services across the State of Mexico, the most populous in the country with more than 16 million inhabitants in a territory of 22,351 square kilometers.

“We are delighted to be part of this initiative that will boost first responder capabilities in this densely populated Mexican state,” said Jose Martin, Sepura Group Regional Sales Director for the Americas and PowerTrunk CEO.
