For reliable standardized tactical communications channels
Built for critical moments
Reliable interoperable communications are critical during major incidents, multi-agency operations, and large-scale emergencies. 7-TAC and 8-TAC repeaters provide standardized tactical communications channels used by public safety agencies to ensure responders can coordinate effectively on scene. To support interoperability, public safety radio systems operating in the 700 MHz and 800 MHz bands are typically required to include these tactical channels in their programming. These standardized channel plans help ensure responders can communicate when it matters most, even when they normally operate on different systems or networks.
7-TAC repeaters support both P25 digital and analog operation
8-TAC repeaters provide analog tactical channels
These systems are commonly deployed when emergency communications are required between local, state, and federal agencies, especially in incidents that involve multiple jurisdictions or agencies operating together.
Most 7-TAC and 8-TAC repeaters are transportable and designed for rapid deployment.
They can be staged ahead of time for special events, moved to disaster response locations, or deployed to improve tactical coverage at an active incident scene. When properly engineered, configured, and installed, these repeaters can significantly improve coordination, safety, and overall operational effectiveness.
JES provides equipment, programming, installation, and support for transportable and deployable interoperability solutions. If your organization needs a 7-TAC or 8-TAC repeater setup, or you want to ensure your radios are correctly programmed for interoperability requirements, our team can help.
