Sepura has announced two significant updates to its market leading SC21 TETRA hand-portable, with the device now certified with an IP67 environmental protection rating, while also being made available for use in the UV band (403-470MHz).

Since its launch the SC21 has proven popular with organizations looking for a compact, robust TETRA hand-portable with outstanding audio and enhanced user functionality through data applications. Along with its sister device, the larger SC20 hand-portable with its additional high-speed data bearer, the SC2 Series of TETRA radios are firmly in position as Europe’s TETRA radio of choice, deployed by public safety organizations throughout the UK and across Europe.

Operational in harshest conditions

Having the SC21 available in the 403-470 MHz frequency band ensures that the device will now also be available to non-Airwave user organizations in the UK as well as in many other global regions.

The IP67 environmental protection rating ensures that the SC21 device has proven to remain operational even after the harshest of working conditions. For the user, this means that Sepura’s radios last longer and more reliably, even when used in dirty and wet environments.

Combined with innovative features such as Water Porting, extended receive sensitivity, and the ability to add intelligent data applications through its AppSPACE software environment, the SC21 is shown to be a leader in critical voice and data communications.
