Fylde Micro’s NEW Multi-Lingo System the gold standard in radio trunking enabling easy migration from MTP1327 to DMR trunking

According to Fylde Micro , the design teame in Blackpool, England have worked tirelessly to complete what is the most sophisticated and complex design ever to come from Fylde Micro. Fylde’s goal with the Multi-Lingo controller is provide network operators and radio users the very best in radio trunking whilst minimising investment risk and maximising choice.

The company explainst that the Multi-LingoTM is designed from the ground-up as a multi-protocol platform, more importantly, it allows different protocols to talk to one another. Multi-Lingo can be enabled to use digital DMR and analogue MPT 1327. Multi-Lingo systems provide the network operator with an easy and flexible migration scheme from legacy MPT systems.

The company have partnered with leading manufacturers to ensure seamless integration with new and existing repeater equipment.

Connecting Legacy infrastructure to digital Multi-Lingo Systems

Legacy system data is collected via an available site port on the existing Fylde (RCP) Regional Control Processor. The Audio streams are collected via the existing Fylde PCM Switch. These connections are then presented to the specially tasked Multi- Lingo controller card using a Fylde cross patch interface.

The specially tasked Multi-Lingo card acting as a translator, converts analogue voice signals and network data from within the legacy MPT system, converting everything to digital data. This interchange allows calls and messaging to seamlessly flow between digital systems and existing analogue systems. It is worth noting that once the translator is no longer required the Multi-Lingo card can be put into service as a regular controller. This setup is all you need to seamlessly bring together new DMR or dPMR IP based sites with your existing legacy MPT network.
