Point-to-Point Protocol (PtP, P2P); a network configuration that is used to establish a
direct link or connection between two radios. In general, a Point-to-Point network
includes a Point-to-Point Master, a Slave, and optional Repeater(s). All data packets
in a Point-to-Point network are acknowledged - Master to Slave packets and Slave to
Master packets. This type of network allows two way communications between the
Master and the Slave.
Hybrid Peer-to-Peer Protocol; a network configuration that allows the radios to
communicate directly with one another. This network also allows the user to view and
modify the settings of any remote radio from any radio in the network. In general, a
Hybrid Peer-to-Peer network includes a Master, one or more Slaves, and optional
Repeater(s).
Time Division Multiple Access Protocol (TDMA); a network configuration that allows
multiple radios to use the same frequency by assigning different, predetermined time
slots to each radio in which to transmit/receive or repeat data to the Master radio. In
general, a TDMA network includes a Master, one or more Slaves, and optional
Repeater(s).
Point-to-Multipoint Protocol (PtM, P2M); a network configuration that is used to
establish a communications link between the Master radio and the Slave radios in the
network. In general, a Point-to-Multipoint network includes a Point-to-Multipoint
Master, Slaves, and optional Repeater(s). Only data packets sent to the Master in a
Point-to-Multipoint network are acknowledged. This type of network allows two way
communications between the Point-to-Multipoint Master and the Slaves.

Push to Talk Protocol (PTT, P2T, PtT); a network configuration that allows the radios
to communicate directly with one another. The PTT network includes Master and one
or more Slaves. Lexycom's PTT Master operates with 1PPS synchronization. Our PTT
Slaves can operate with 1PPS synchronization or using RF synchronization to the
Master.
