ZTE launches LTE broadband multimedia trunking solution at CeBIT

ZTE has launched the LTE broadband multimedia trunking solution at CeBIT 2014 in Hanover, Germany.

ZTE's LTE broadband multimedia trunking solution is based on TD-LTE technology. The system can be used across a multitude of sectors, providing the best information and communications technology (ICT) service for customers and meeting the customised requirements of many organisations including transport, public safety and energy.

"Currently, conventional narrowband digital trunking systems provide only voice and limited data, and therefore cannot fulfil the demand of data-heavy activities such as the downloading of videos and photographs. ZTE's LTE broadband multimedia trunking system overcomes these problems by offering a high-speed radio transmission capability of up to 100Mbps in downlink and 50Mbps in uplink, alongside multi-party response and quick access," the company mentione din its statement.

"ZTE's system provides voice calls, short messenger services and voice intercom functions; as well as supporting various high-bandwidth services including multimedia dispatch, wireless HD video transmission, multimedia video conferencing, mobile office, vehicle and personnel positioning. The system's trunking capacity is not limited, enabling it to meet custom requirements in a wide range of application scenarios," it said.

"ZTE has also introduced innovations and improvements to the system based on TD-LTE technology. It does this by providing over-the-air encryption, virtual private networking (VPN), bi-directional access authentication, end-to-end encryption and other measures to ensure the security and confidentiality of communication services, successfully meeting the varied requirements of customers," according to a release.

Additionally, ZTE's LTE broadband multimedia trunking solution is being applied in a number of ways in the energy sector. With its flexible networking, fast deployment, widespread network coverage and safe and reliable performance, the system has supported the establishment of smart grids and digital oilfield network.
