NEXEDGE
: Multiple Solutions – One System
All NEXEDGE™ products use advanced digital voice
technologies and support both FM analog and new
digital fleets. System type conversion or expansion only
requires software options and/or additional base station
units, i.e., no “forklift” upgrading. Kenwood offers
high-power turnkey NEXEDGE™ conventional, trunked
and wide area trunked IP network solutions with secure
digital voice and an array of advanced digital feature
sets for business and government sectors.
NEXEDGE
is powered by the NXDN
digital air interface, an
FDMA digital access methodology generated with optimized DSP
coding, AMBE+2
voice coding technology, unique filtering and a
4-level FSK modulation technique producing an industry-leading
low bit error rate (BER) digital performance even at weak RF
signal strengths.
Natural Sounding Digital Voice
The AMBE+2™
VOCODER, a state-of-the-art voice digitization technology,
replicates an individual's natural human speech nuances accurately
unlike early technologies that sounded unnatural and synthesized.
The AMBE+2™ offers superior voice quality at varying signal
strengths even at highway speeds.
Extended Range over FM
As RF signal strength weakens
with distance, FM analog reception becomes increasingly noisy and
intermittent. NXDN™'s low BER improves reception in fringe areas,
thereby increasing the effective range by as much as twenty
percent over FM.
Large Group & Individual ID Capacity
The NXDN™
subscriber air interface protocol supports 65,519 GID's & 65,519
UID's for system sharing and large organizations (maximum ID's
available depend on operational mode). ID's can be organized by
agencies, divisions, departments and individuals.
Spectrum Efficient Now
The NXDN™ digital air interface
and equipment are capable of all channel bandwidths.
FM Analog @ 25 & 12.5 kHz Channels
NXDN™ Digital @ 12.5 & 6.25 kHz Channels
NXDN™ Digital Air Interface
NEXEDGE™ supports common call features in both digital
conventional and trunked modes.
Over-the-Air Alias
A calling units UID alphanumeric alias is
sent over the air and displayed on a receiving unit's LCD, so there is
no need to program every fleet alias in every radio.
UID/GID Validation
Each unit and talk group are validated in
the operator system manager for access and call privileges.
Paging Call
Up to five UID unit-to-unit pages are dated, time
stamped and stored for recall and review - useful for unattended
radio messages and non-voice selective paging operations.
Emergency Call
Subscriber units can declare an Emergency
to a console, an individual, a group or all groups. This signal can be
triggered by a manual key, a footswitch (mobiles) or man-down tilt-
switch (portables).
Remote Stun/Kill
Enables a dispatcher to temporarily or per
manently disable a lost, stolen or compromised radio unit over the
air for system security and personnel safety.
Remote Check
Enables a dispatcher to check if a unit is on or
in range.
All Group Call
A selectable All Call GID calls all talk groups on
the system for facility wide announcements, emergencies and
evacuation scenarios.
