Artevea is dedicated to encouraging the

adoption of the TETRA standard and our vision

is simple: to continue to make life easier for

communicators within all kinds of public and

commercial organizations.

In order to do this we are committed to ensuring

that our products and services are always

designed with customers' needs at our core.

The evolution of our products is a process

involving attention to detail, rigorous testing and

careful consideration of what communicators will

need in the future.

Our highly experienced research and

development personnel are constantly finding

ways to improve the capability and flexibility of

our products. And as established industry

experts they know the importance of making

sure that our customers receive the best value

for money.

2 A Pioneer in TETRA Technologyditional Gateway options

A Vision for the FutureArtevea are constantly striving to deliver the

most advanced TETRA products with the

greatest attention to detail and quality. As an

ISO 9001 organisation, our focus is to set new

benchmarks for innovation, quality and vision.

Artevea participates actively with the TETRA

MoU and the Interoperability Organization and

we are proud to work with business partners

who share our vision. We look forward to

hearing about your communications

challenges and to making those

communications easier.

3Reliable Communications Worldwide

TETRA digital trunked radio helps organisations

ensure that a distributed workforce stays in

constant touch through voice and data calls.

Using Artevea TETRA-over-IP systems can

deliver improved efficiency and competitive

advantage by enabling your workforce to access

data on the move while still in the

field. All communications over TETRA are

reassuringly private, secure and robust.

As a global open standard, TETRA allows a

mix of different manufacturers’ terminals on the

same system, Artevea are active participants in

the TETRA Interoperability testing forum and

have successfully trialled all the leading suppliers

of terminals on our system.

With the added advantage of Artevea’s

T-MATRIXTM TETRA-over-IP (ToIP) infrastructure,

communication networks can be as modular and

flexible as required. Artevea designs completely

scalable transportable radio sites (T-MATRIXTM P)

or fixed radio site installations (T-MATRIXTM F).

Each radio site can be a seed for a larger multi-

site network by adding extra components.

Better still, T-MATRIXTM is insulated against

system failure. T-MATRIXTM ToIP uses Advanced

Distributed Architecture for Call Processing and

Databases instead of a central switch, thereby

removing any single point of system failure. If a

radio site becomes detached from a network it

will continue to operate locally with no loss of

functionality. The other sites remain connected

and operational while the link is being restored.

With a distributed system, work stations,

gateways and network management

components can be located anywhere on the

network that is convenient, rather than having to

locate resources close to where the equipment

needs to be.

4 An Expanding Global Market

TETRA equipment was originally designed to

meet the needs of public safety and military

organisations. It replaced analogue radio

broadcasts audible to anyone able to pick up the

frequency, with defined subscriber groups limiting

and securing vital communications.

In critical situations fast and sound decision-

making is essential. TETRA systems are based

around group and one-to-one private calls where

the connection is instant at the push of a button.

Speech is clear and background noise cut to a

minimum.

Businesses such as taxi firms, couriers, security

companies, haulage and air freight services also

operate with a distributed task force that can

take immediate advantage of radio

communications to mobilise latent resources and

enhance market competitiveness.

In today’s world, the faster, more flexible and

better informed you are the better your chances

of winning customers and contracts.

Since it was first defined as a standard, TETRA has

now been adopted in over 70 countries and is used

by Police Networks, Defence Networks, Power

companies, Water companies, Railways, Airports

and Mining & Exploration Industries.

Improving the level of customer service is key for

any organisation. Air, rail and road transport

operations all require flexible communications giving

access to real-time information to work crews as

well as passengers. Construction companies with

large numbers of employees dispersed across

broad coverage areas rely heavily on their

communication systems for the co-ordination of

work crews and overall operational efficiency.

In large distribution centres and retail chains,

ground floor staff need hands-free operation of

communication devices and can utilise a significant

amount of data in their activities.

Artevea understands your needs and through

partnership with other leading suppliers ensures a

complete solution.

5A Key Role in Global Communications

The TETRA standard has been developed by

industry experts alongside the European

Telecommunications Standards Institute and has

emerged as the unchallenged standard for

professional users of radio communications

worldwide. It is designed to function well within

some of the most arduous environments in

the world.

From the earliest days of TETRA, Artevea Digital

UK has played an active and key role in

assisting the development of the standard. And

over the last three years Artevea has designed

and produced a robust and resilient TETRA

system holding to the principles and standards

that we ourselves helped put in place.

We at Artevea are proud of our achievements

and of our latest product offering: the

T-MATRIXTM TETRA infrastructure, which offers

not only reliable communications but also the

flexibility of using TETRA over IP.

The Artevea global distribution and partner

program ensures that professional radio users

can enjoy complete peace of mind when

choosing systems from Artevea. All our

distributors are constantly trained and updated

on the latest designs and configurations. Every

one of our partners installs and maintains our

systems, backed up by Artevea technical staff

who are available around the clock.

As TETRA continues to grow Artevea continues

to play a key role in supplying advanced

communication systems anywhere on the globe.

it uses Advanced Distributed Database

Management, Processing and standard TCP/IP

Routing techniques. The networks can be

designed using star, mesh or mixed topology,

ensuring continuous multi-site operation.

The T-MATRIX™ Technology is future proof

because it is designed to be able to support the

developing TETRA 2 Standard and Inter

Systems Interface (ISI) Specifications. This

allows customers to choose Artevea

T-MATRIX™ Technology and Products with

confidence and capability to move forward in the

future. T-MATRIXTM is cost effective because

users are not tied to proprietary handsets or

terminals and the system works with a wide

choice of ‘Off The Shelf’ routers and ethernet

switches so that customers can take full

advantage of competitive pricing on any

essential devices.

T-MATRIXTM F is a fixed site solution for
