Two-Way Radios for MOD & Defence Support Services
The UK Military and Ministry of Defence were among the first adopters of two-way radio.
In this field, there is a well-established understanding of how vital reliable communications can be in order to ensure safe and effective facility operation.
Advances in Two-Way Radio Capabilities for Military
With continual advances in two-way radio technology, many new features can be applied and are directly relevant to the Ministry of Defence and Military organisations. Many key features, including Lone Worker and Man Down emergency signalling, enhanced security and encryption, wide area systems coverage, ATEX Certified Radios and GPS positioning can all ensure multiple organisation inter-operability and user safety.
Integrating 2CL Connect
The 2CL Connect system can be installed to integrate into existing site infrastructure, giving additional capability, including features such as voice recording, telephone interconnection, alarm management, BMS monitoring and fire system early warning assistance. 2CL Connect is a simple unit that can be quickly installed and easily configured to provide a huge increase in site monitoring and systems control.
Although there is a huge variety of enhanced capabilities we understand that more often than not the basic requirement is often overlooked. With us, you can be assured that a solution will be recommended to ensure the simplest operation possible. We understand that, especially in high-pressure situations, the ability to get safety critical messages communicated to all users simply and quickly is vital. Over-complicated procedures can often be eliminated in favour of single-button pushes, with automated voice messages being relayed to everyone in a matter of seconds.

Firing Range Radio Systems in the UK
2CL have been supporting QinetiQ and their Ministry of Defence weapons testing ranges across the UK, with a key system located at Pendine. Using DP4401 radios, which are equipped with GPS as a standard, and a TRBOnet Dispatcher Radio System, control room staff are aware of staff locations in relation to which ranges are operational. QinetiQ also has the ability to disable the GPS using a radio side button, for when they need their radios to stop sending location updates, thus increasing the emissions safety of these particular radios.
Within TRBOnet there is also the capability to set up ‘Geofencing’. This feature can highlight particularly hazardous areas, and when particular radios enter an area, a message can be sent to the radio. For example, if there was a range that the cleaners were not allowed to visit, you can set up a Geofence around the range, and should any cleaner carry a radio into the range their radio will alert and the control room will become aware of this particular radios incursion into the active range.
