  1. Rebanding Update

  2. Basic Rebanding Message • Interference has been a serious problem for 800 MHz Public Safety and Critical Infrastructure communications • FCC spent 2 1/2 years studying problem with 10’s of thousands of pages of comments • Report and Order was designed to reduce PS interference • If you are impacted, it is mandatory--you can’t get out of it • All costs are covered • Motorola is here to help you through the process and provide the absolute minimum disruption to your operation

  3. Impacts to Subscribers and Infrastructure

  4. Motorola’s System CategoriesSystem impact falls into 4 categories based upon channels used A – Channels in first 120 only (806.0125/851.0125 – 808.9875/853.9875) • No NPSPAC 821-824 Channels at all B – Channels in NPSPAC only (821.0125/866.0125 – 823.9875/868.9875) • No Channels in 806-809 General Category C – Channels in NPSPAC and first 120 / Expansion D – Channels in Interleaved spectrum (809.0125/854.0125 – 815.9875/860.9875) • No NPSPAC 821-824 Channels at all • No 806-809 General Category Channels Note: Expansion Band PS will move, unless they opt to stay

  5. Retune/Reprogram/Update/Replace Definitions • Retune: Updating the channel frequencies via the Customer Programming Software/Radio Service Software programming software • Reprogram: Updating operating software via software FLASH with new frequencies & band plan • Update: One or more boards must be replaced in the equipment to enable retuning or reprogramming • Replace: Cannot be updated to support new frequencies or band plans

VRM / PRM (All) Subscriber Impact -- Category AChannels in first 120 only • System with channels from 851.0125 / 806.0125 to 853.9875 / 808.9875 • Relocates to channels from 854.0125 / 809.0125 to 861.9875 / 816.9875 • Does not have any NPSPAC channels including Mutual Aid programmed in radio • Equipment impact • Radio units can be retuned to new frequencies • Radios in red are class B IM protection. Motorola recommends replacing those units for better interference protection after rebanding* * Costs to replace radios that can be retuned or reprogrammed will be the responsibility of the licensee

  7. Subscriber Impact -- Category BChannels in NPSPAC only • System with NPSPAC channels from 866.0125/821.0125 to 868.9875/823.9875 • Relocates to rechanneled 851.0125/806.0125 – 853.9875/808.9875 • 821/866-824/869 MHz must be reflashed with new radio software to operate in 806/851-809/854 MHz • All radios must be retuned. The radios must be reprogrammed with a new RSS/CPS programming software to support new channels Reprogram Subscriber Replace Subscriber Spectra Spectra E Saber SI STX Gemini Plus MTX 820 MaxTrac LCS 2000 LTS 2000 MTS2000 (256k) ASTRO Saber (512k) ASTRO Spectra (<96) XTS5000 XTS2500 XTS1500 XTS3000 MCS2000 MTS2000 (512k) ASTRO Saber (1MB) ASTRO Spectra (>95) XTL5000 VRM & PRM (All)

  8. Subscriber Impact -- Category CBoth NPSPAC & first 120 Channels • System with NPSPAC channels from 866.0125 / 821.0125 to 868.9875 / 823.9875 and channels from 851.0125 / 806.0125 to 853.9875 / 808.9875 • May be a multi-step process • First Relocation from lower 120 (851.0125 / 806.0125 to 853.9875 / 808.9875) is retune only • Second Relocation to rechanneled 851.0125/806.0125 – 853.9875/806.9875 is Reprogram and/or Replace • All radios with NPSPAC channels must be re-flashed with new radio software to operate in new NPSPAC channels (806/851 - 809/854 MHz) • All radios must be retuned. Radios must be reprogrammed with a new RSS/CPS programming software to support new channels Reprogram Subscriber Replace Subscriber Spectra Spectra E Saber SI STX Gemini Plus MTX 820 MaxTrac LCS 2000 LTS 2000 MTS2000 (256k) ASTRO Saber (512k) ASTRO Spectra (<96) XTS5000 XTS2500 XTS1500 XTS3000 MCS2000 MTS2000 (512k) ASTRO Saber (1MB) ASTRO Spectra (>95) XTL5000 VRM & PRM (All)

  9. Subscriber Impact -- Category DChannels in Interleaved spectrum • System with channels from 854.0125 / 809.0125 – 860.9875 / 815.9875 only • At this time, no impact; However, • Public Safety licensees in new Expansion band channels 860.0125 / 815.0125 to 860.9875 / 815.9875 can relocate if desired to frequencies below 809-815 / 854-860 MHz. • Project only requires retuning for those who move out of Expansion Band

  10. Category B & C Product Replacement Mapping Rebanded Subscribers Replace Subscriber Decision for 01 to 03 Portable If the portable is a model III, requires encryption or 255 channels, it should be replaced with an 03 radio. Otherwise, it should be replaced with 01s LTS2000 are replaced with 03s Mobile If the mobile requires encryption or 255 channels, it should be replaced with an 03 radio. Otherwise, it should be replaced with 01s LCS2000 are replaced with 03s RBP03 RBP01 RBM03 RBM01 LTS 2000 ASTRO Saber (512k) Saber SI MTS2000 (256k) STX Gemini Plus STX LCS 2000 ASTRO Spectra (<96) Spectra Spectra E MaxTrac Syntor 9000 Syntor X MICOR Mostar Traxar Motrar Encryption Model III Large Channel size No Encryption Model I Encryption Large Channel size No Encryption

  12. Subscriber Summary • If system is 806-816 MHZ only it is a Retune • If subscriber has any NPSPAC trunking channels, use replacement radio chart • Be sure you’ve checked your interoperability plans • Rebanding radios are driven by 3 factors • Display • Encryption • Number of channels • Accessories will be swapped on 1 for 1 basis

  18. Consoles • Conventional only—No Impact • CategoryA&D Trunked Systems—No Impact • Impact on CategoryB&CSystems—No Impact with two exclusions: • Trunked CENTRACOM II will have to be replaced • CENTRACOM Series II+: still being evaluated

  19. Software Development and Certification Effort For Fielded Units • New channel assignment required to move NPSPAC to lower part of band • Channel Spacing in 806-809 changes with new band plan • Channel number to frequency translation must change • Control channel list has been increased to allow old and new assignments • Failsoft channel list has been increased to allow old and new assignments • New plan allows radios to work on either upgraded or not upgraded site • Simplifies rebanding migration process • Minimizes disruption to Licensees • Greatly reduces infrastructure costs and overlay requirements • Reduces number of duplicate systems needed • Enables system-wide mobility throughout customer migration

  20. Band Plan Migration Old Plan New Plan (Includes Old Plan) • Step 1 – Update Mobile with New Plan (Includes Old Plan) Site 1 Site 2

  21. Band Plan Migration Old Plan New Plan (Includes Old Plan) • Step 1 – Update Mobile with New Plan (Includes Old Plan) • Step 2 – Update Site 1 with New Plan Site 1 Site 2

  23. Infrastructure Summary • Impact on Non-NPSPAC Systems is Retune • Impact on NPSPAC Systems requires more effort: Reprogram or Update • SMARTNET I & II need HW Replacements • Other Systems need new SW • New band plan software incorporates both before and after plans • Simplifies rebanding process significantly
