Brazilian airport selects Motorola DIMETRA
BH Airport, operator of BH International Airport in Belo Horizonte, Brazil, has adopted a Motorola Solutions DIMETRA TETRA digital radio solution.
The system was deployed by Bapi Telecomunicações, Motorola’s local partner and system integrator.
The system brings together critical operations such as security, operations and baggage handling activities.
It’s also used by outsourced personnel who provide airport parking, aircraft sourcing, cleaning and catering services.
The airport’s dispatch centre currently manages 23,000 push-to-talk calls per day, with capacity for expansion.
Approximately 200 terminals were initially deployed, including MTP3500 portables and MTM5200 and MTM5400 mobile and fixed terminals.
For aircraft sourcing and firefighting units, ATEX-certified MTP8550Ex terminals were provided.
Paulo Amarante, BH Airport technology director, said that “the new radios have greatly improved airport communications, especially with respect to audio quality, without interference or interruptions”.
“Now, with the digital system, we no longer have problems with network congestion and communication has become more precise, thanks to the possibility of defining groups by order of priority.”
