Kenwood TKR-D710 & TKR-D810 Digital Mobile Radio Repeaters

Description

The Kenwood TKR-D710 and TKR-D810 are professional-grade DMR digital and analog repeaters designed to expand the coverage, capacity, and reliability of two-way radio systems. Both models deliver robust performance, enhanced audio clarity, and scalable network integration, making them ideal for industrial operations, transportation fleets, security networks, and large-scale professional communication systems.


Perfect For:

  • Industrial operations and manufacturing

  • Logistics and transportation fleets

  • Security services and emergency response teams

  • Utilities and field operations

  • Organizations requiring extended radio network coverage


Key Features:

  • Digital & Analog Compatibility: Supports DMR digital and conventional analog modes for seamless integration into existing networks.

  • Extended Range: Increases communication reach across single-site or multi-site networks.

  • High Audio Quality: Provides clear, intelligible voice communication, even in noisy environments.

  • Scalable Network Integration: Supports multi-site configurations with IP connectivity.

  • Robust Construction: Industrial-grade durability designed for reliable, continuous operation.

  • Advanced Signaling & Security: Supports emergency signaling, private/group calls, and optional digital encryption.

  • Remote Monitoring & Control: Enables network management and diagnostics for operational efficiency.

Features

  • Dual-mode (analog/digital): Supports DMR Tier II digital and conventional FM analog modes. The repeaters can operate in a mixed-mode, automatically detecting the incoming signal type and switching modes, which allows for a flexible migration path from older analog systems.
  • Increased capacity: Uses DMR’s two-slot TDMA technology, which effectively doubles the capacity of a 12.5 kHz channel and improves spectrum efficiency.
  • High power output:
    • TKR-D710 (VHF): Up to 50W output power at 50% duty cycle, and 25W at 100% duty cycle.
    • TKR-D810 (UHF): Up to 40W output power at 50% duty cycle, and 25W at 100% duty cycle.
  • Conventional IP network: With an optional network interface unit (KTI-5), multiple repeaters can be linked over a TCP/IP network to create a wide-area communication system.
  • User interface: Features a two-digit numeric LED display, a local speaker, and six illuminated programmable function keys for easy operation and status monitoring.
  • Battery backup: Includes a built-in battery backup system that automatically switches to an optional 12V battery if the power supply fails, ensuring uninterrupted operation.
  • Remote functions: Supports various DTMF remote control functions for system management (analog mode only).
  • Software updates: The repeaters use flash memory, which allows for future feature and system architectural upgrades via firmware updates.
  • Rack mountable: Designed for rack mounting, making it easy to install in existing infrastructure.
