The municipality of Mazatlan in  Mexico has selected Sepura TETRA radios for its public safety  organisations. The contract with Mazatlan’s municipal authorities, the  Secretaría de Seguridad Pública y Tránsito Municipal de Mazatlán,  Sinaloa (SSPyTMM), was closed by Sepura’s Mexican partner Exsertel S.A.  de C.V.

Mazatlan is the premier tourist destination in the Mexican  state of Sinaloa and one of the key states in the war against the drug  trade in the country. The municipality needed a new radio solution to  ensure effective and secure communications – and remove the risk of  eavesdropping — for its municipal police in the entirety of its  territory. Sepura radios will operate on municipal-wide TETRA  infrastructure provided by Rohde & Schwarz.

Jesús Antonio  Moreno Tapia from SSPyTMM commented: “By enabling Automatic Vehicle  Location (AVL), the GPS option available in Sepura’s STP8000 and STP8100 hand-portables  will enhance operational efficiency and improve officer safety. The  hand-portables and the SRG gateways’ high RF power is a perfect fit for  our specific coverage requirements. Furthermore, Sepura’s revolutionary  Man-Down functionality — which triggers an alert when the radio detects  ‘non typical’ user movement — is a crucial new safety feature for all  our police officers, in particular when working alone”. Mr Tapia added:  “The Bluetooth functionality of Sepura’s hand-portables will enable  future implementation of remote data projects and the ability to deal  with events more effectively by sending pictures of fingerprints,  criminals or missing persons over the TETRA network”.

Juan Carlos  Calderón Tapia, Operations Manager at Exsertel said: ”The Mazatlan TETRA  project is an example of Sepura’s ability to exceed customer  requirements and expectations: not only were the radios delivered and  configured on time, but Sepura’s radio design will allow our customers  to develop applications for their network. Choosing these radios  promises undoubtedly the best return on investment.” Mr Calderon  continued: “This is the third operational public safety TETRA network in  Mexico – but the first one to comprise a complete fleet of Sepura  radios in operation and to include interconnectivity with the National  Security System. The Mazatlan network is prestigious and pivotal as it  is viewed as a pilot project for the deployment of a nation-wide TETRA  network”.

Mazatlán is the second largest city in the Mexican state  of Sinaloa located on the Pacific coast.  Its surrounding municipality  has a population 403,888 and is also called Mazatlán. The city was  founded in 1531, and by the mid-1800s became a thriving commercial  seaport, importing equipment for the nearby gold and silver mines.  Besides being a very popular tourist destination, Mazatlán is Mexico's  largest commercial port.

The Government of the German Federal  State of Saarland has announced the award of the contract for their  entire fleet of 4,000 TETRA radios to Sepura’s partner in Germany,  Selectric Nachrichten-Systeme GmbH.  Sepura’s radios will be supplied to  all of the Police, Fire Brigades and Rescue Services in Saarland.

Patrik  Schlicker, Project Manager for Saarland’s Ministry of the Interior,  commented: “With one European-wide tender we have been able to complete  successfully the procurement of TETRA radios for all public safety users  in Saarland. After a thorough evaluation of all the bids received, we  selected Sepura radios because of their superior price-performance.  We  are confident that we will be providing our users with the best TETRA  radios on the market today.”

Saarland chose Sepura’s STP  hand-portable and SRG mobile gateway radios and became the first German  state to select the new Sepura Colour Console (SCC) for the mobile  radios.  The SCC has a large high resolution colour screen which allows  the display of high quality photographs and maps and introduces three  text mode sizes and a new ‘night mode’ which reduces glare — ideal when  driving at night. In addition, it offers high levels of water and dust  protection (reflected in its IP67 rating) which enable it to withstand  submersion in water and make it ideal for installations on motorbikes  and fire engines. Configuration and management of all TETRA radios will  be carried out with Radio  Manager, Sepura’s advanced client server operational support tool  which allows users to connect to a number of Sepura TETRA terminals  simultaneously.

Service and training will be provided locally by  Selectric thus ensuring the smooth implementation of digital  communications for all public safety users in Saarland.

Hendrik  Pieper, General Manager of Selectric said: “This is the ninth German  federal state to choose Sepura radios, which is significant for an SME  (Small Medium Enterprise) business like ours – these contracts help us  strengthen the local economy and provide job security for our  work-force”.

Kasper Barfoed, Regional Director for Sepura  commented: “This prestigious win is yet more evidence of the efficiency  of Selectric and Sepura’s partnership – together we have established  market leadership in the largest TETRA market in the world.” Mr Barfoed  added:”The following figures speak for themselves: Sepura and Selectric  have won national tenders in 9 of the 13 German federal states bringing  our German market share to a staggering 61%”.

Sepura TETRA radios  are already in use in the German states of Baden Wurttemberg, Bavaria,  Bremen, Hamburg, Niedersachsen, Northrhein Westphalia, Saxony and Saxony  Anhalt.
