(Xinhua)
Updated: 2006-03-23 08:47 A leading European
telecommunication network provider has built Asia's largest professional mobile
radio (PMR) network in Beijing, which covers more than 34,000 law-enforcement
officers and urban facilities supervisors.
Jean-Marc Nasr, chief executive officer of European Aeronautic Defense and
Space Company (EADS) Secure Networks, said at a press conference here Wednesday
that the reliability of PMR with the terrestrial trunked radio (TETRA) standard
was fully proved duringthe just ended annual sessions of both the National
People's Congress and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference.
"Our TETRA provides reliable service to professional mobile radio users in
some key governmental organs in Beijing," Nasr said.
"We plan to expand our TETRA business in police and public transit transport
systems," he said.
Combining traits of both walkie-talkie and mobile phones, traffic and patrol
police as well as customs officers could be equipped with TETRA professional
mobile radios.
Nasr said, "We hope we could supply our systems and terminals for the 2008
Beijing Olympics."
EADS Secure Networks was created following a major deal that saw EADS buying
Nokia's PMR business.
The addition of Nokia's TETRA business means that EADS has morethan 130 PMR
customers in 56 countries.
