The Arcom RC210 is a true 3‑port repeater controller that is available as a kit or already assembled.   Each port has its own timeout and hang (carrier delay) timers, courtesy tone, ID's and dedicated DTMF decoder.   Each port can be intertied to any other port.   Each port can be configured as a repeater, a remote base, or a half or full duplex link port.   Options include The RAD Audio Delay Board (eliminates squelch crashes and DTMF blips) and the AP1 Intelligent Autopatch Board (which doesn't tie up a radio port).


Likewise for the RC810 controller:

Everything from an IRLP or EchoLink node to a half-duplex link or remote base radio, made be used in this manner. The only limitation is that the source has to provide its own squelch muting.   Article by Ken Arck AH6LE
