What wireless network standards does TrimTrac support?
The TrimTrac locator initially supports GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications). GSM is the standard for digital cellular communications in much of the world. In the United States, there are competing standards, including AMPS, CDMA and TDMA; however, GSM enjoys equal or better coverage compared to the other digital standards. As with the other digital standards, the TrimTrac locator’s GSM coverage is strongest in heavily populated areas and along interstate corridors. None of the digital standards are as pervasive as analog AMPS cellular signals, but analog is gradually being phased out in favor of digital standards. Over time, the TrimTrac locator may be enhanced to support other digital communication standards.
