Even after years of successful deployments, IDAS MultiTrunk remains a mystery for much of the LMR community. This lack of exposure is unfortunate because a properly deployed NXDN Type-D system is a reliable, cost effective, and bandwidth efficient straightforward solution. While P25 has all the hype these days, its implementation is cost prohibitive for many smaller public safety or commercial agencies. These entities typically require modest coverage area, yet more talk paths than a conventional system can offer, and the level of reliability that public safety demands. This mid-level solution is where MultiTrunk really shines.
