Case Study
Central Maryland Region Uses Perfect Fit 619 Audio Bridge for Rebanding Program
Re‐banding With Interoperability Gateway
The existing repeaters were re‐banded on the new frequency plan and 4 temporary repeaters were added and tuned to the original frequency plan (back‐to‐back configuration). Most importantly, this had to be done without the loss of service to any radio user in any of the agencies concerned.
A simple, safe and cost‐effective solution was required to llow the transition of networks and the eventual removal of the old equipment. The availability of 19” rack space at some repeater sites was also a onsideration. Teltronic selected the 619EI Audio Bridge / Interoperability Gateway for this purpose.

The Challenge
How to Combine a Number of Frequency Bands
The region wanted to crossover to the re‐banded frequencies gradually whilst maintaining quality of service to its users. Therefore, the solution needed to be totally transparent to those users. The challenge was how to combine a number of frequency bands (new and existing) so that users could still talk to each other while the crossover was undertaken.
The Solution
Run The Old And New Narrow Band Frequencies
The approach taken was to run the old and new narrow band frequencies in parallel and combine each group’s audio at the repeater site. Two audio bridges were used at each site and the linking was arranged to form two talk groups on each bridge. Link paths within an audio bridge are configured via front panel DIP switches. The 19” 1RU enclosure meant that rack space was kept to a minimum. Balancing audio between different audio sources for correct deviation can be challenging. However, the 619EI has separate audio level controls for incoming and outgoing paths, making this job very easy. Overall, the 619EI makes this kind of application simple to implement.
