Connect your iDEN phone to your Two-Way Radio Network! The CA-1 iDEN Bridge allows an iDEN subscriber to communicate with and be party to a two-way radio talk group. The CA-1 connects your TL-NET Network to any popular iDEN network such as Sprint/Nextel or SouthernLinc.

How Does it Work?

Simply add your CA-1 to an existing site where the iDEN network is available. Each CA-1 will have its own iDEN private call number. The iDEN user will call the CA-1’s call number to connect to the two-way radio talk group.

Why Should I Use it?

The CA-1 provides an alternative to cell phones for your customers. They can put iDEN phones only in the hands of necessary users. Other users can be converted back to your private SMR airtime business, saving your customer the high cost of cell phone bills and increasing your monthly subscriber units.

What Equipment is Required?

The TL-NET network is required to use the CA-1. This system allows multiple repeater sites to be linked together, creating a wide-area trunking network. The TL-NET system includes one server to oversee the entire network, a Gateway and high speed ethernet connection for each site, and one controller per repeater.  TL-NET can be managed from any computer connected to the internet.  The CA-1 is just another controller on the network. For more information see our  TL-NET wide-area trunking system.
