Entropia delivered portable and mobile TETRA radios and offered the jury the opportunity to follow the head and tail of the course live on a digital map via the Entropia Combus Controlroom platform.

The Amstel Gold Race, a Dutch one-day bicycle race event for professional riders, which is held annually since 1966 in the hills of Limburg, The Netherlands, took this year place on April 17 with the support of the TETRA mobile telecommunications network of Entropia Digital.

Since 2008, Entropia supports the cycling event providing radio communications for the organization and security where radio coverage is provided across the Amstel Gold Race area.

Also this year Entropia delivered portable and mobile TETRA radios. The company also offered the jury the opportunity to follow the head and tail of the course live on a digital map via the Entropia Combus Control Room platform.

Additionally Entropia transmitted communication via a VHF channel (150.1375 MHz), allowing hobbyists to follow the course directly.
