Where next ?
• So if we can do all this ………..

TCCA timeline
• The TETRA Association is of the opinion that for mission critical data there will remain a requirement for dedicated spectrum.
• TETRA currently offers voice and mission critical data. Without any viable
alternative to voice it will be available for at least the next ten years. • The only dedicated spectrum that is available today and likely to be available
during that time for mission critical data points to TEDS. • Non mission critical data throughout the same period may utilise a commercial
service. • Additional spectrum could become available for first data and then data plus voice
in the longer term. • The TETRA Association believes that any investment in TETRA today and going
forward is protected given these timescales and lack of both spectrum and the desired functionality.
