SOFTWARE ROIP GATEWAYS
Software RoIP gateways for every radio network
Omnitronics software gateways connect dispatch consoles to P25, DMR, TETRA and broadband push-to-talk networks – on a server or virtual machine, with no gateway hardware to rack for every link.
100% software
No gateway hardware to buy, ship or rack for each link.
Server or virtual machine
Run on a fan-less PC, a rack server or as a virtual machine.
Built for resilience
Redundant pairs for automatic failover, load balancing and disaster recovery.
Vendor certified
omniGateP25 and omniGateDMR are certified under the Tait Technology Partner Program, and every gateway reaches the many other radio vendors Omnitronics supports.
Choose your gateway
Which software RoIP gateway do you need?
Each omniGate gateway connects your dispatch consoles to a different kind of radio network. Pick the one that matches your system, or combine several on the same dispatch platform. Open any gateway below for its capabilities, examples and diagrams.

Why software
Why choose a software RoIP gateway?
A hardware gateway is bought, shipped, racked and cabled for every link. A software gateway is a license and a server – and the server can be the one already running your dispatch platform. That changes how fast a system grows, how it survives a failure and what it costs to run.
No hardware to ship
Add a gateway without buying, shipping or installing a physical device – ideal for growing systems and temporary deployments.
Scale by license
Add talk paths, consoles and call capacity with a license change rather than new equipment.
Always on
Redundant pairs provide automatic failover, load balancing and disaster recovery, all managed virtually.
Deploy anywhere
Run on a virtual machine or in a container, on-premises or in a private data center, anywhere in the world.
Easy to manage
Browser-based configuration and remote updates, so day-to-day administration needs no Linux skills.
One platform, every radio
Combine gateways on the same dispatch platform and reach the other radio systems Omnitronics supports through IPR and DRG hardware gateways.
Network diagram
How software gateways fit into your network
Dispatch operators connect over the IP network to one server or virtual machine running the software gateways you need, which in turn connect to each radio network. Other radio systems reach the same consoles through Omnitronics IPR and DRG hardware gateways.
Video
omniGate seamless failover
omniGate gateways keep dispatch running by switching to the secondary system when a primary connection, server or service becomes unavailable. Watch how a hot-standby pair takes over without the dispatcher noticing.
Deployment
Deployment options
Every Omnitronics software gateway can be virtualized. Omnitronics also supplies approved hardware, sized to the gateway and the number of talk paths.
Fan-less industrial PC
A compact, silent option for small gateways at a site or in a comms cupboard.
Rack server
Dedicated rack servers sized for small, medium and large gateways.
Virtual machine
Run as a guest on the omnicore host or on your own hypervisor.
Hot-standby pair
Two gateways, ideally at separate sites, so dispatch keeps running if one fails.

Industries Benefiting from Software RoIP Gateways
Many sectors with critical communications needs are adopting software-based gateways to modernize their radio networks and improve interoperability. Here are just a few examples of industries and use cases that are driving the evolution from hardware to software RoIP gateways:
Other sectors such as Defense, Government, Manufacturing, and Aviation are also embracing software-based radio gateways to enhance their communications networks.
In any mission- or business-critical industry, software RoIP gateways provide the agility, integration capabilities, and reliability needed to unify disparate radio systems onto a common, future-ready platform.
FAQ
Software RoIP gateway questions
What is a software RoIP gateway?
A software RoIP gateway connects dispatch consoles to a radio network over IP without a dedicated hardware gateway for each link. It runs as software on a server or virtual machine and speaks the radio network's standard interface, such as P25 CSSI, P25 DFSI or DMR AIS.
Which omniGate gateway do I need?
Match the gateway to your radio network: omniGateP25 for P25 trunked systems, omniGateP25DFSI for conventional P25 repeaters, omniGateDMR for DMR Tier 2 and Tier 3, omniGateAIR for Airbus Agnet broadband push-to-talk and Tetra GatewayDM for DAMM TetraFlex. omniGate connects omnicore Enterprise consoles to Omnitronics RoIP gateways.
Can the gateways run on a virtual machine?
Yes. Every Omnitronics software gateway can be virtualized – as a guest on the omnicore host or on your own hypervisor. Omnitronics can also supply approved fan-less PCs and rack servers.
Do software gateways support failover?
Yes. Gateways can run as redundant pairs for automatic failover, load balancing and disaster recovery. Your Omnitronics specialist will confirm the right design for each gateway.
Can I use hardware and software gateways together?
Yes. Many organizations use hardware gateways at radio sites and software gateways in centralized or virtualized environments, all on the same dispatch system.
