Trailblazer® Hybrid (TB-Hybrid)

A Point-To-Point Digital Radio Providing POTS, Leased Lines and Ethernet Data

Trailblazer radios use TrueTDM™ and IP technology to provide perfect wire-line quality telephone service to industrial facilities and substations beyond existing phone lines.

Configurable for up to eight 64 kbps PCM voice channels in a combination of 4-wire E&M circuits and POTS, with ranges up to 32 mi/50 km or more with repeaters. Features full fax and V.90 dial-up modem or Ethernet capability. Optional v.35 interface. 2-wire bidirectional circuits are also available.

Flexible and Programmable

All Trailblazer models are bench or field programmable. The graphical user interface (GUI) offers installation and antenna alignment aids and diagnostic tools. All models support 4-wire E&M, 2-wire circuits, carrier class features, fax and V.90 dial-up modems.

Advantages Over Wireline

All Trailblazer models deliver voice, data or both up to 32 mi / 50 km. Using Carlson's exclusive TrueTDM™ technology and state-of-the-art digital electronics and wireless links, Trailblazer radios provide network quality and reliability without the expense of right-of-way costs or wireline hard costs. Trailblazer Hybrid is a popular solution for utility companies who use it for substation isolation.

Plug and Play Simplicity and Reliability

All components, including digital radio cards, multiplexer, power supplies and CPU are fully integrated into the outdoor 3 kg / 8 lb waterproof enclosure or a standard metal rackmount. No third party devices such as MUX or adaptors needed.

Easy Installation

ODUs are easily installed with a simple wall or pole mount and built-in power supply. 19" rack mount IDU also available. Programming with a GUI and your laptop completes the job.

Rugged and Weatherproof

ODU terminals are housed in a NEMA 4X waterproof enclosure, built to last in tough climates.

No License Required, yet Private and Secure

Uses the license-exempt (in most countries) 2.4 GHz or 5.8 GHz frequency bands. Licensed 4.9 GHz models are also available for qualifying security-related applications. Trailblazer uses TDMA framing for additional over-the-air security.

Low Power Draw, Solar Powerable

Point-to-point systems draw low power and accept any DC voltage from 12V to 24V. Solar power kits available with up to 7 days of backup power.
