The most emergency services mostly use the dedicated TETRA network, although some fire brigades have looked to DMR, as for a start they tend to use VHF which is not offered in TETRA. In this area DMR Solution have a good product offering, with again terminals that offer a migration pathway (In this case the technology was analogue conventional so the migration would be to Tier 2 DMR).
ATEX Intrinsic safety is often a requirement for some of the situations that fire crews have to attend, as are specific accessories to be worn when the person is wearing gloves, helmets, breathing apparatus and heavy duty clothing.
Therefore, products like the Talkpod DMR series that are rugged and waterproof, support analogue conventional and DMR, have an ATEX variant and can use the specialised accessories required (bone conduction and throat microphones, large PTT controller buttons).
