Full network flexibility

DAMM systems are characterized as being scalable and able to handle sites of any size – from one-site solutions with local coverage to large-scale multisite solutions, using any combination of DAMM outdoor and indoor base stations. Simple and smooth site expansion is possible, even while in operation due to the intelligent DAMM TetraFlex software.
The 100% IP-based technology provides full architectural network flexibility with all network components connected in a single state-of-the-art infrastructure without a central switch.
The DAMM indoor base station is part of the DAMM single-technology portfolio and can be fully integrated into any of our multi-technology products.

High capacity. High efficiency

The DAMM Indoor Systems can be configured with up to 16 TETRA carriers in two racks, giving a total of 64 time slots with easy access to all field-replaceable units and terminals from the front.
Excellent receiver sensitivity is ensured by the Tower Mounted Amplifier/Duplexer (TMA/TMD) by eliminating receiver cable loss. Additionally, the TMD enables dual-diversity operation using only two antennas.

DAMM Indoor Systems have extremely low power consumption and can be delivered as a high output power version as well.

Secure and failure tolerant

Featuring full support for battery backup and redundant controllers, power supplies and carriers, DAMM Indoor Systems meet your highest requirements for reliability. The intelligent decentralized architecture replicates information to all sites in the network, avoiding any single point of failure.

Unlimited application integration

DAMM TetraFlex is supplied with Application Gateways for easy access to the Application Programming Interface (API), Packet Data Gateways and Voice Gateways, which enables straight-forward integration to existing control room equipment and telephone systems or development of customer-designed applications.

As an independent TETRA infrastructure provider DAMM base stations are IOP certified for full compatibility with all TETRA terminals, providing you with the option to freely choose your favourite terminal brand.

Wide range of advanced software tools

The DAMM TetraFlex system is available with a wide range of application software such as Voice and Data Log System, Dispatcher, Enhanced Bridge and a comprehensive Network Management tool including subscriber management and network performance statistics.
