Two-way radio, paging and bi-directional amplifiers
Proeye started in 1999 installing two-way radio, and radio is still part of what we do. We install and upgrade two-way radio and paging systems, and extend radio coverage inside buildings with bi-directional amplifiers.
In short
- Two-way radio systems for staff who need instant, one-to-many communication.
- Paging services for alerting staff on site.
- Bi-directional amplifiers to carry two-way radio into basements, car parks, stairwells and plant rooms.
- The same team, risers and cable pathways as our mobile coverage work.
What we provide
Radio systems are planned around the building, the people using them and the frequencies licensed for the site.
Two-way radio
Installation and upgrades of two-way radio systems, including antennas, cabling and equipment in comms rooms and risers.
Paging services
Paging for alerting staff on site, planned so pages reach people wherever they work in the building.
Bi-directional amplifiers
In-building radio coverage where handheld radios lose contact, with a donor antenna, an amplifier and indoor antennas.
How a two-way radio BDA works
Concrete, steel and below-ground levels block radio signals, so handheld radios can lose contact with the rest of the system in exactly the places staff need them.
A bi-directional amplifier (BDA) works in both directions. It takes the radio signal from a donor antenna, amplifies it and feeds it to antennas inside the building. Transmissions from handheld radios inside are picked up, amplified and sent back out, so people in the building can both hear and be heard.
- Survey first. We measure where radios lose contact before designing the system.
- Licensed frequencies. A BDA retransmits radio frequencies that are licensed, so we work with the licence holder and confirm the requirements before installation.
- Set up to suit the site. Amplifier gain is set at commissioning. A poorly set-up amplifier can interfere with other radio users, so we check before handover.
- Shared pathways. Where a building also has a mobile repeater system, the radio and mobile cabling can be planned together in the same risers and ceiling spaces.
- Interference diagnostics. Our spectrum survey and interference diagnostic work helps find and fix radio problems. Consultancy and RF diagnostics
Where radio coverage matters
Two-way radio is often the main way security, maintenance and operations staff talk to each other.
- Basements, car parks and loading docks
- Stairwells, lift lobbies and plant rooms
- Hospitals, aged care and large residential buildings
- Warehouses, distribution centres and retail centres
- Venues, campuses and events
Radios dropping out inside the building?
Tell us about the site, the radio system you use and where contact is lost, and we will scope a survey.
