HiveNet™ is a rugged transportable repeater which can

be linked with other HiveNet repeaters over RF links, to

create a network of linked repeaters. A HiveNet repeater

network is self-healing, allowing for repeaters to be

added and removed on the fl y, as well as being rapidly

confi gurable for expanded area coverage.

INTEROPERABLE ENCRYPTED NETWORK

HiveNet repeaters and links can be any frequency band (VHF,

UHF, 700/800/900 MHz). HiveNet is available as an analog only or

analog and P25 digital (mixed mode) repeater network giving users

full forwards and backwards compatibility with existing legacy

equipment. In P25 Digital mode, HiveNet will pass all encrypted

voice and data transparently through the repeater network using

AES-256 encryption, meaning all communications are secure in the

case of a HiveNet repeater being compromised. HiveNet repeaters

are interoperable with a wide range of subscriber radios from all P25

supported vendors.

HEARTBEAT SIGNAL FOR ROAMING

Conventional repeater systems require users to manually change

channel to move between repeaters. HiveNet has the unique

functionality of a heartbeat signal which enables a user to roam

freely within the HiveNet repeater network coverage area, without

having to change channels. The heartbeat signal ensures a users

portable radio is locked onto the best HiveNet repeater site for

optimal coverage and reliable communications.

RUGGED AND RAPIDLY DEPLOYABLE

HiveNet repeaters are lightweight and housed in a compact

watertight polyethylene Pelican™ case. The case includes soft grip

handles, in-line wheels, press and pull latches and a telescoping

handle for rapid deployment. A HiveNet repeater is low power

consumption, allowing it to operate from internal batteries, vehicle

batteries or additional add-on external batteries. HiveNet is based

on a transportable repeater solution but can be installed as a fi xed

network infrastructure.

 FEATURES AT A GLANCE
