This comes in the wake of the HCL-Motorola combine winning the Rs 100-crore contract to implement a secured radio network for the Delhi government ahead of the up-coming Commonwealth Games. The duo is betting on implementing TETRA (TErrestrial Trunked Radio) communication network, which facilitates swift and secure communication both within a department as well as inter-departments.
Talking to ET , HCL Infosystems executive vice-president George Paul said the agreement with Motorola has just been inked. "HCL and Motorola will combine their respective specialisation in system integration and communication technology. Since such advanced radio communication systems require both the elements, we think this partnership will help us win major deals in the government and police space," he said.
As part of the strategy, HCL is also planning to increase its product portfolio for such specialised IT communication equipment and hardware. At present, a major chunk of HCL's system integration revenue flows from the government and the public sector.
Motorola India sales director and country head (enterprise mobility solutions) Subodh Vardhan said both HCL and Motorola has already bid for the tender floated by Daman police and is also in talks with Bangalore police.
"Almost all the big police departments such as Gujarat, Bangalore, Chennai and Hyderabad are now planning to upgrade their communication network. A big business opportunity will soon open up," said Mr Vardhan.
Mr Vardhan said Motorola globally is implementing a number of TETRA communication systems for governments. 'TETRA being a digital solution as compared to the existing analogue system, it has its own advantages such as digital sound clarity, much better usage of spectrum and full-data capability. Plus, this can be linked among departments and encrypted," he said.
TErrestrial Trunked RAdio (TETRA)
TETRA is the new standard for digital trunked radio specified by the European Telecommunications Standard Institute. In a single solution TETRA combines the benefits of:
- Digital PMR
- Digital Cellular Phone
TETRA SERVICES
A transceivers can combine in one device the benefits of:
- Digital transceiver for special radiocommunication networks
- Digital cellular phone
- Alphanumeric pager
- Modem for data transmission
- Device of digital cryptophony
TETRA APPLICATIONS
Some of the applications that can be developed based on the TETRA technology can be summarized in the following:
- Fleet Management
- Vehicle Tracing Location through GPS
- Image Transmission
- Wireless Access in Databases
- Wireless Internet
- Connection with peripheral devices such as: taximeters, credit card readers, portable PC's and printers, fingerprints readers, etc
