Push-to-talk (PTT) two-way radios with their nationwide coverage and sophisticated technologies are currently replacing traditional radios and cell phones as the preferred communication devices for the field teams.
Why have field teams outgrown traditional radios and cell phones?
While earlier field teams used traditional radios and cell phones to further business communications, they had some setbacks.
- Traditional radios: They are suitable for communicating within a limited radius. Expanding coverage of such radios may require the purchase of expensive equipment like a repeater, costly licensing, and maintaining the infrastructure that eats into the annual budget.
- Cell phones: While cell phones are convenient, they are not viable in industries that require instant communication, as there can be disruptions from patchy service and noise issues.
Primary Advantages of PTT radios Over Traditional Radios and Cell Phones
Ideal for key industries, like securities, logistics, construction, field services, school districts, and utilities, where team communication is vital, PTT radios offer seamless, uninterrupted communication with nationwide coverage.
The key features include:
Instant and reliable communication:
PTT two-way radios offer instant and reliable communication, allowing users to instantly connect at the push of a button.
Group communication:
Push-to-talk radios allow users to engage in group communication simultaneously by using multiple channels. This is useful in industries like healthcare, where instant group communication is essential to maintain efficiency and safety.
Enhanced battery life:
Unlike traditional radios or cell phones, the PTT radios come with batteries that last a long time. They typically work on a single charge for a longer time, allowing extensive use of the devices in field work.
Durability:
PTT radios have a durable exterior that can withstand constant exposure to challenging outside conditions, including dust, dirt, and moisture. This makes them an ideal device to be used in remote areas.
Dedicated networks:
Unlike cellular networks, where communication can be disrupted because of network outages, congestion, or dead zones, PTT radios use dedicated frequencies like LTE/WiFi networks, ensuring fast, uninterrupted communication.
Secure communication:
Unlike cellular phones, which can be vulnerable to eavesdropping, push-to-talk two-way radios use encryption features to offer a high level of security and privacy in industries dealing with sensitive information.
Cost-effectiveness:
Unlike cell phones, PeakPTT radios come with no monthly contract or fees, eliminating the need for expensive data plans.
PeakPTT radios with advanced features, like GPS, emergency alarms, and affordability can suitably replace cell phones and traditional radios to offer uninterrupted communication to various industries.
