Sepura is the only major network-independent TETRA (Terrestrial Trunked Radio) terminal supplier. It designs, develops and supplies digital (TETRA) radios for the public safety market (such as police, fire service and ambulance) as well as Military, Transport and Utilities. Sepura headquartered in Cambridge, UK, has an international network of distributors and partners supplying organisations in over 100 countries worldwide as of 2008.

Sepura's origins are from the Pye company which was based in Cambridge from the end of the 19th century. The mobile radio division, Pye Telecommunications, was taken over by Philips in 1967. By the mid 90's Philips decided to pull out of non-core business areas, so Simoco came into existence. In 2002, Sepura was formed from the terminals business of Simoco.

Sepura offers the most comprehensive and largest international range of TETRA terminal products. They are available in the widest range of TETRA frequency bands and operate on all manufacturers’ infrastructures.

Manufactured by Siemens in Austria, Sepura's product portfolio comprises vehicle-mounted and hand-held radios, the world’s most popular covert radios, 10W mobile-gateways and the most advanced programming support tool on the TETRA market today – Radio Manager. Amongst the many options available with these radios are the multi award winning fully-integrated sGPS receiver and the most comprehensive range of air interface and End-to-End Encryption solutions.
