Scalable dPMR Digital

Radio Trunking with

Seamless Migration

from MPT1327

Fylde Micros NEW Multi-Lingo System, the gold standard in radio trunkingThe design team at our development centre in Blackpool, England have worked

tirelessly to complete what is the most sophisticated and complex design

ever to come from Fylde Micro. Fyldes 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.

Multi-Lingo 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 dPMR, digital DMR and analogue

MPT 1327 . Multi-Lingo systems provide the network operator with an easy and

flexible migration scheme from legacy MPT systems.

Fylde has partnered with leading manufacturers to ensure seamless integration

with new and existing repeater equipment. Fyldes Multi-Lingo is fully

digital throughout; both control and speech paths are conveyed between all

nodes via IP.

Cross Protocol NumberingMPT1327 and dPMR have different numbering

schemes. To enable communication between

these protocols some form of translation must

be provided. Multi-Lingo has translation tables

to ensure that dPMR users can be included in

MPT both individual and group calls and vice

versa. The intention is to have no restriction on

protocol to protocol communication.

Next Generation SYSCON-SuiteTo complement the new controller Fylde has

created a revolutionary network administration

interface that incorporates asset tracking, a

SIP based dispatcher, all available via a web

browser.

Everything is digital over IPThere are no switches or separate control /

to the Multi-Lingo channel card, everything is

digital and conveyed over IP links.

Totally Scalable Systems Multi-Lingo can be used to build systems

ranging in size from 2 channels on a single

site to national systems of a 1000 sites. Each

Multi-Lingo tray supports either 4 x dPMR

channels, 4 channels of MPT 1327 or 4 DMR

Time slots. Trays can provide a mix of protocols

up to 32 channels per site.

dPMR utilises 6.25kHz narrowband FDMA technology.

dPMR Mode 3 provides for a fully managed, scalable

trunking similar to MPT-1327 in operation. Fylde Multi-Lingos unique design

allows different protocols to talk to one another seamlessly. ETSI compliant.

MPT 1327 is still the most well established analogue trunked

radio protocol available. Renowned for its fast call setup and

delay free speech. The core strength of MPT1327 is that it is a stable and a

static standard resulting in a wide range of fully interoperable products from

serveral manufacturers.

Multi-Lingo provides a Unique cross protocol numbering Aliases Number aliases are necessary because

all three protocols use different numbering

standards. A dPMR radio simply enters the

alias number and the system will translate it to

the correct MPT number. This unique feature is

all done within the Multi-Lingo site controller.

dPMR is an ETSI Standards Why is this important?

ETSI standards could be described in general as

being definitions and specifications for products

and processes requiring repeated use. They are a

set of rules for ensuring quality. Standards can be

found throughout our daily lives but why do we need

them? Rather than asking why we need standards,

We should ask what the world would be like without

standards.

Products might not work as expected. They may

be of inferior quality and incompatible with other

equipment, in fact they may not even connect with

them, and in extreme cases; non-standardised

products may even be

dangerous.

For the foreseeable future Fylde Micro will continue to manufacture and support its 3rd generation range of dedicated MPT1327 Analogue systems

Fylde Micros Legendary MPT1327 Systems

For the foreseeable future Fylde will continue to

manufacture and support its 3rd generation range of

dedicated MPT 1327 analogue systems.

This 3rd generation rugged, modular equipment is world renowned for its trouble

free performance. Fylde prides itself on long term support of all its products so

users can be confident of at least ten years support. And of course, 1st / 2nd

and 3rd generation Fylde trunking can interface to Multi-Lingo via the legacy

gateway further increasing the useful lifetime of the system.

MPT 1327 is an industry standard for trunked radio communications networks.

It was developed in 1988 by the British Department of Trade and Industry (DTI),

Although a British standard it is widely used in Europe, South Africa, New

Zealand, Australia and even China. Many countries have their own version of

numbering / user interface, the most notable being MPT1343 (UK), Germany

Chekker (Regionet 43), France 3RP (CNET2424), Australia Multiax,

China -Gong An.

Connecting Legacy inf r astr ucture to digit al

Multi-L ingo 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.

This gateway can be used to facilitate gradual migration where big-bang swap-outs are not viable.

We guarantee to provide upgrade paths for all our customers, allowing the interconnection of existing and future Fylde networks.

30 years of radio trunking excellence Fylde Micro delivered the first ever true MPT multi-site system back in 1986.

Since then Fylde have been pioneers in the field of radio trunking gaining a

worldwide reputation for rugged and reliable trunked radio solutions.

Fylde is now entering into its third decade and with that comes new digital

narrowband communication challenges. Fylde have being closely involved

in the writing of the ETSI digital standards for DMR and dPMR. Whilst

these standards have been maturing Fylde have developed the Multi-Lingo

controller, the most sophisticated and complex controller design in the storied

history of Fylde Micro. This brand new product is capable of communication

across three protocols DMR, dPMR and MPT1327 simultaneously, digital

and analogue.

1986 - 1988 Fylde provide the worlds

first true MPT system for Air Call / BT.

This system was installed at the top of

the Telecom Tower - London.

Fylde Micro outstripped all competitors

in the supply of MPT1327 systems and

handset controller circuits.

1983 - Fylde Microsystems incorporated

as a limited company specialising

in SELCALL and other PMR/SMR

technologies.

1994 - Fylde began the supply of MPT

controller circuits to Kenwood Japan.

Fylde designed and manufactured

thousands of miniature controller

boards for the very successful TK series

mobile radio. Following on from this

success Fylde designed further projects

for Kenwoods MPT1327 range.

1989 - Tait Electronics of New

Zealand purchased a product

license from Fylde allowing them

to manufacture and further develop

Fyldes unique distributed processor

based infrastructure. Today there is no

resemblance between Fylde and Taits

equipment. Fylde carried on developing

its distributed processing scheme

whereas Tait followed the path of

centralised processing.

Fylde released a total of 5 design

licensies for re-manufacture and

development of its MPT infrastructure.

1983

2005 - Installation of Entropias

European MPT1327 network

begins. Fylde supplied 145 sites

comprising 850 channels. The

largest commercial MPT network

in the world spanning across four

countries.

1995 - Fylde opens the doors to its

new headquarters and purpose built

manufacturing facility in Blackpool UK.

1994 - Fylde and Motorola entered in to a

5 year OEM supply agreement. Motorola

purchased Fylde MPT controller and

infrastructure re-branding it Motorola. The

main market was UAE and Asia.

2011 - Fylde Micro and Icom Inc. are

the first in the world to release dPMR

Mode 3 equipment.
