Australia welcomes Sepura once again

Published: 
17 September, 2009

Sepura has secured another Australian commercial order, this time from the Pacific Fair Shopping Centre on the Gold Coast, Queensland after work by Trans Communications, a dealer for ComGroup, one of Sepura’s channel partners in Australia.

This new digital system - which replaces a dated and restrictive analogue network - will enable the shopping centre to meet the growing demands of the retail environment by ensuring greater traffic capacity, enhanced security of communications and clearer speech quality. In addition, the ability to utilise advanced voice, telephone interconnect and data features will improve the total business efficiency and customer service delivery within the retail complex.

Sepura’s STP hand-portable and SRG mobile TETRA radios will be supplied to a variety of operators within the centre and will be used specifically for personnel location, centre management, maintenance, security and cleaning services. The Bluetooth location system by Zonith, one of Sepura’s solutions partners, will be used to track employees throughout the shopping centre thus providing greater levels of security and more effective management of resources. This is one of the many solutions Sepura and its partners are able to provide under the auspices of Sepura’s highly successful Solutions Partner Programme.

Johnny van Rooyen from Trans Communications says: “Our customer had no hesitation in selecting Sepura thanks to the radios’ GPS tracking and Bluetooth technology features as well as for their impressive digital audio clarity”. Doug Bowden, Senior Business Development Manager for Sepura added: “It meant a great deal to us, our partner ComGroup and their dealer Trans Communications, to implement their first TETRA digital system in Queensland within a commercial environment such as Pacific Fair”.

Kevin Graham, Regional Sales Director for Sepura concluded “Pacific Fair joins a growing list of small, but significant customer organisations in Australia. The country is progressively starting to embrace TETRA in similar fashion to the rest of Asia Pacific and we are confident that our radios will enable these new users to make the most of the enhanced voice and data features available with this digital radio technology”.
