Main features

Analog/Digital Adaptive Auto-Switch
The cornerstone of the ET-R98D is its ability to operate in pure analog, pure digital, or mixed-mode. In mixed-mode, it automatically detects the type of incoming signal and intelligently retransmits it. This ensures complete interoperability between legacy analog radios and new digital radio repeater networks, providing a truly seamless migration experience.

High Power Output for Maximum Coverage
With a powerful 45W output in VHF bands and 40W in UHF bands, this two way radio repeater is built to cover large areas from a single installation point. This high power, combined with excellent receiver sensitivity, ensures reliable communication across sprawling industrial sites, large campuses, or remote rural locations.

TDMA Digital Technology for Double Capacity
Leveraging advanced Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) technology, the ET-R98D operates as an efficient uhf dmr repeater, effectively doubling the call capacity within a single 12.5kHz licensed channel. It supports simultaneous two-slot voice transmission, allowing two separate conversations to occur at once. This dramatically increases spectrum efficiency and user capacity without requiring additional frequency licenses.

IP Interconnect for Wide-Area Networking
Equipped with optional IP port interconnection, the ET-R98D enables the creation of expansive multi-site networks. By linking repeaters over a standard IP network (LAN/WAN), you can extend coverage to regional or national levels, allowing users to roam freely and communicate across vast distances as if they were on a single local site.

Robust Remote Management & Diagnostics
Integrators and system administrators can benefit from the ability to remotely monitor, diagnose, and control the repeater's status via an IP connection (internet). This allows for proactive maintenance, quick troubleshooting, and efficient system management, reducing on-site visits and minimizing downtime.

Comprehensive Data and Voice Services
The ET-R98D supports a full suite of advanced features, including single call, group call, all call, short messaging, call alert, and emergency alarms. It also supports remote stun, kill, and wake functions for enhanced radio fleet management, ensuring security and control over the air interface.

Dual Development Interfaces for Custom Integration
To meet the needs of specialized clients, the repeater features a 26-pin secondary development interface and an RJ45 Ethernet interface. This allows third-party integrators to develop custom dispatch systems using the AIS (SIP) protocol, offering unparalleled flexibility for bespoke solutions.

Superior Thermal Management for 24/7 Reliability
Designed for continuous duty, the ET-R98D incorporates a temperature-controlled cooling fan. This ensures stable, reliable, 100% full-power operation even in demanding environments or during extended periods of heavy traffic, guaranteeing that this digital radio repeater remains online when it is needed most.
