Performance
Certified
Legacy Compatible
The base station, mobile, or emergency comms- The URC-300 fits your application/CONOPS. Maximized RF performance for close proximity operations, this portable transceiver is compliant to ETSI EN 300 676-1 for 8.33 kHz and 25 kHz channel spacing. Ideal for what you need, when and where.
Since 1992 GDMS' Ground-to-Air (G2A) radios have provided clear, reliable communications to meet the dynamic communication requirements of air traffic control centers, commercial airports, and military air stations and range installations. With over 10,000 radios delivered, they are the first radios deployed in the National Airspace System (NAS) to support VoIP global standards and have quickly become the preferred choice of the FAA and DoD to replace legacy radios.
UNMATCHED RELIABILITY
​
According to the latest FAA Fielded Reliability Report, the CM-300/350 V2 radios average 695,000 hours Fielded Mean Time Between Failure (FMTBF) across 266 operational terminal sites monitored, making them one of the most reliable ATC radios in the world.
MAXIMIZED RF PERFORMANCE - REDEFINING SOFTWARE DEFINED
