Digital Solutions Division
Training Handout TRN Handset
Introduction
Government and one of the largest providers of two-way radio technology in the world.
L3Harris have a presence in Canberra and will also provide ongoing maintenance support for
the Handsets.
The TRN handset is to be used in accordance with the TRN Use Procedures detailed within
the TRN Use Procedures document.
The Harris XL-200 radios are the new two-way radios that will
replace the old analogue radio handsets across the Health
Directorate, Canberra Health Services and Calvary Public
Hospital. These handsets operate through the ACT
Government Territory Radio Network (TRN) and will function
wherever the TRN signal or TRN expanded network signal is
available.
The TRN operates through a network provided by TRN towers
that are established in a ring formation at the perimeter of the
Australian Capital Territory (ACT) border. The TRN handset can
operate across the entirety of the ACT and can even function in
states that are connected to the TRN. For instance, ACT
Government Harris handsets will also function within New
South Wales (NSW).
The TRN is a digital service and as such, the new TRN handset is
has additional capabilities to the previous analogue handsets.
The most significant is the ability for each user group to
maintain an exclusive channel for use within their operations
without interference from other user groups. For instance,
Ward Services will have their own channel, as will all the user
groups who use the TRN service.
L3Harris are the providers of the TRN Handsets for the ACT
