Redmond, Wash. – Zetron, a leading provider of mission-critical communication solutions, announces its new Pathway TIA P25 Digital Fixed Station Interface (DFSI) gateway. The Pathway product has been designed to allow connection of up to 4 control stations or console systems to a single Pathway device using the DFSI protocol.

Zetron’s Pathway offers the following key benefits:
• Allows up to 4 DFSI enabled console systems to communicate to a single DFSI base station.
• Uses Standards based TIA P25 Digital Fixed Station Interface protocol for normal operation.
• Works with any manufacturer’s dispatch console that is compliant with the TIA P25 DFSI open standard.
• Easy to use web based configuration.
• Has the capability to send updated state information to the console systems whenever one of those systems changes the fixed station state.

“The Pathway product is ideal for applications that include console system migration, disaster recovery/backup center operation or multi–agency control in which the same DFSI resource is required to be accessible by all systems,” said Zetron vice president of product management, Kathy Broadwell. “And in the true spirit of open standards, Pathway will work not only with Zetron dispatch consoles but consoles from any manufacturer compliant with the DFSI standard.”
