SLR8000 Base Station

Item Number: SLR8000E100W400470

Digital Repeater

  • 400-470 MHz Frequency Range
  • 64 Channel Capacity
  • Reliable Operation
  • High Sensitivity
  • Improved Noise Blocking

The SLR8000 Base Station has a 100 W transmitter output and high sensitivity receiver and delivers radio coverage to an enormous area. With its excellent performance characteristics, it is also ideally suited for congested sites, where tighter specifications are required.

This digital receiver has internal monitoring circuitry, allowing you to measure parameters such as input voltage and current, output power, module temperatures and VSWR. This can be accessed through the front panel maintenance interface, or through a remote management application such as RDAC.

The SLR8000 Base Station has a next-generation receiver design, with high sensitivity and improved noise blocking, so you can be confident of clear voice quality, even in the worst conditions.

The SLR8000 Base Station can be customized to suit your operation.There are options for an internal preselector and antenna relay module, offering you a true one-box installation. You can also opt for an internal wireline card if you need tone control capabilities, 4wire audio and additional external inputs.

Power can be supplied as 110-240 Vac, 12-24 Vdc, or AC with battery fallback: there is even a built-in 5 A battery charger. The 2U unit can be mounted efficiently in a rack, with no requirement for ventilation space above or below. Serviceability is improved by the local voice capability: there is an internal speaker and volume control, with provision for an external microphone.
