Motorola SLR 1000 — 10W Compact Repeater for In-Building Coverage
Compact 10W DMR repeater engineered for in-building and campus coverage. Single 5-inch rack unit with integrated duplexer eliminates external filtering, wall-mountable with passive cooling requiring no fans or ventilation. Supports 2 simultaneous voice paths via TDMA, integrated battery charger for 8-hour backup operation, and Capacity Plus single-site trunking readiness. Ethernet port for remote management and firmware updates. Ideal for hotels, hospitals, school campuses, and underground parking where a compact self-contained unit replaces expensive external infrastructure.
Hytera HR1062 — 50W 1024-Channel Multi-Site Gateway
Dual-mode DMR conventional + XPT trunking repeater with 1,024-channel capacity across 64 zones. 50W output with 0.3µV analog sensitivity, and mixed-mode analog/digital auto-detection for seamless migration. Built-in multi-site roaming controller eliminates external IP network hardware, and the 2U rack design with front-panel access suits central equipment rooms. The gateway step for networks that outgrow a single site and need XPT trunking and roaming without bolt-on servers.

The Coverage Architecture Decision
Choose the SLR 1000 when the problem is a dead zone, not a network: a hotel basement, hospital wing, campus building or underground garage needs one self-contained 10W unit with integrated duplexer, passive cooling and an 8-hour backup charger — deployable by a single technician without external filtering or ventilation. Choose the HR1062 when the network spans multiple sites: 50W output, 1,024-channel capacity across 64 zones, XPT trunking and the built-in multi-site roaming controller scale a growing fleet without bolt-on IP hardware, while mixed-mode auto-detection eases analog migration. SLR 1000 buys surgical in-building coverage at minimal site cost; HR1062 buys multi-site trunking capacity in one 2U box.
