Hytera DMR Solution Supports Her Majesty’s Thames Diamond Jubilee Pageant

Source: The Critical Communications Review | Gert Jan Wolf editor

Over 1,800 Hytera brand new DMR hand portables PD70X/PD78X have been deployed to support the event along with base station repeaters and accessories.

On Sunday, June 3rd, 2012, over one thousand boats mustered on the River Thames in preparation for Her Majesty the Queen to take part in the Thames Diamond Jubilee Pageant.

Hytera Partner in the UK, Roadphone NRB is honored to be the supplier of the radio system that supports this prestigious event. Over 1,800 Hytera brand new DMR hand portables PD70X/PD78X have been deployed to support the event along with base station repeaters and accessories. During the event, the radios performed excellently in the very wet conditions due to their IP67 rating.

It was one of the largest flotillas ever assembled on the river. The flotilla was bolstered with passenger boats carrying flag-waving members of the public placed centre stage (or rather mid-river) in this floating celebration of Her Majesty's 60 year reign. The spectacle was further enhanced with music barges and boats spouting geysers. Moreover, there were specially constructed elements such as a floating belfry, its chiming bells answered by those from riverbank churches.

The Thames Diamond Jubilee Pageant celebrates Her Majesty's 60 years of service by magnificently bringing the Thames to life; making it joyously full with boats, resounding with clanging bells, tooting horns and sounding whistles; recalling both its royal heritage and its heyday as a working, bustling river. Roadphone NRB and Hytera are extremely proud and privileged to be a crucial and fundamental part of the proceedings.

Besides the Thames Diamond Jubilee Pageant, Hytera products and solutions also supported many other grand events this year such as Euro 2012, China-Thailand joint military training, and Sri Lanka Esala Full Moon Poya Day.
