Wireless: Can the HME 800 system support more than 4 beltpacks on 1 base station?
Question: Can the HME 800 system support more than 4 beltpacks on 1 base station?
Answer: The HME 800 is now obsolete
The HME 800 system has several modes of operation that allow different numbers of beltpacks to operate with the base station.
Full-Duplex Mode - This mode of operation provides continuous two-way comms between the base station and BH800 beltpacks. The beltpacks each transmit to the base station on independent frequencies, this allows up to 4 beltpacks to operate with the base station
Half-Duplex Mode - This mode of operation provides push-to-talk (PTT) communication between the base station and a unlimited number of beltpacks. Multiple beltpacks can reside on the same transmit frequency channels, but the users understand that only one BP per channel can talk at a given time for clear communications. If more than one beltpack on the same transmit channel triggers their talks at the same time interference will occur on that channel.
Combined Full / Half-Duplex Mode - 3 channels on the base station are setup as full duplex beltpacks, insuring that key users have communications access to the base station and each other at all time. The 4th channel is setup for PTT mode for non-critical users that don't need full time communications access. The 4th channel can use an unlimited number of beltpacks on the same transmit frequency.
