Futurecom Systems Group, ULC Introduces the PDR8000 - Portable Digital Repeater

Las Vegas, March 28, 2017:  Futurecom Systems Group, ULC today announced the latest addition to their RF coverage solution portfolio, the PDR8000 - Portable Digital Repeater. Designed for Federal or other public safety agencies whose duties extend beyond traditional fixed RF coverage areas, the PDR8000 provides local on-scene P25 coverage and a V.24 wireline connection allowing connectivity to Motorola Solutions Inc. dispatch consoles anywhere in the world.

The PDR8000 was built with special ops and security detail teams in mind, with a lightweight transportable case weighting less than 28 lbs. and is suited for discreet travel.  "Our Federal customers are required to operate anywhere, anytime to provide for our security. They need reliable, secure RF coverage. Futurecom’s PDR8000 gives them the ability to rapidly deploy P25 compliant local RF coverage with connectivity back to command and control dispatch. The PDR8000 rounds out Futurecom’s portfolio, which includes the DVRS and VRX1000 product lines, to allow first responders and security agencies to bring the RF coverage they need, where ever that may be.” said Paul Halinaty, Futurecom President & CEO.
