Speed matters. Workforce mobility is accelerating and fast, simple, reliable group communications for more people, in more places, and across more networks and devices is in greater demand. Group communications over traditional cell service isn’t fast or simple as experienced when attempting to add multiple people to a conference call via cell phone. A basic one-to-one cellular call takes 108 seconds out of your day.

LMR service doesn’t completely address the need either because people outside its coverage area or those not carrying portable radios cannot communicate with those who are on the LMR network. Often, when using two-way radios while working with some team members who are not, cell phones are needed to communicate.

So, what’s the solution?

Communicate Without Boundaries

We’re evolving the way you communicate with a broadband PTT platform that delivers instant communications tailored to your organization. Teams can share information via fast, seamless individual or group communications at the push of a button over commercial or private LTE and/or Wi-Fi networks. Instantly. No dialing. No swiping. And, from anywhere. Across town. Across the state. Across the country.

And what makes it even better … our broadband PTT platform integrates easily with two-way radio networks so you can significantly extend the reach of your existing LMR system.

From PTT to PTX

We are also taking PTT beyond basic voice, delivering push-to-anything (PTX) communications that lets you share videos, images, documents and text messages with individuals or groups. You can combine voice and multimedia communications in the same PTT call to make it faster and easier to share thoughts, ideas and concepts.

As we lead the way innovating PTT to PTX, we do so while adhering to key standards for service reliability and consistency: Open Mobile Alliance (OMA) PoC and PCPS specifications; 3GPP Mission Critical PTT (MCPTT) and more.

Choose the Right Device

In addition to popular phones available from most wireless carriers, our broadband PTT platform also supports an array of ruggedized devices and accessories, ensuring that you can best equip your teams for their roles, responsibilities and work environment. You can be confident in your choice knowing that we rigorously apply ongoing device testing for maximum reliability.

Choosing the Right Platform Matters

Because one size does not fit all, our broadband PTT platforms offers a tailored solution so you get the right fit for your specific size, industry and budget. The right communication platform should fit within your existing workflows, not the other way around. That’s why our broadband platform supports multiple deployment options – network-integrated, cloud and premise – to meet your unique communication requirements.

Our broadband PTT expertise is unmatched with more than 15 years delivering fast, secure, reliable push-to-talk communications to more than one million end users in nearly 40 countries supporting over 2 billion calls a year.

We’ve only just begun to improve how you communicate – get ready for broadband PTX to evolve how you instantly connect and collaborate.
