College campuses operate like small cities. Communication between faculty, staff, administrators, maintenance personnel, and security are critical tools for maintaining order on campus and providing a safe environment in which students can learn.
Push to talk radios can be instrumental in facilitating communication on campuses no matter what’s going on in and outside your hallowed halls of learning.
These are a few benefits digital radios for college campuses have to offer.
Swift Communication
Push to talk communication allows instant communication with multiple people with the press of a single button. You have the option of communicating with all groups, specific groups, or individual people with push to talk radios, making them highly useful for managing emergencies, events, and other campus activities.
Sound Quality
Digital radios are excellent tools for eliminating background noise, like wind, rain, raucous frat parties, rowdy fans in football stadiums, and more. This allows the voice communication to get through clearly despite the sounds going on all around both sides of the conversation. You can also purchase accessories, like headphones to facilitate even clearer communication.
Budget Friendly
Colleges and university operate under budgets. Providing cellphones to college staff is expensive — both to purchase and maintain with hefty monthly fees. Push to talk radios are more affordability, allowing you to do more with your budget.
Durability Factors
Of course, durability is another critical component of the equation when you’re dealing with communication equipment. Many push to talk radios are built to take more than a little abuse from those using them. More importantly, they are built to withstand certain amounts of wind and rain and keep on operating making them a rugged communication choice useful in all weather conditions.
Panic Features Enabled / Emergency Management
Many push to talk radios also have built-in panic buttons or SOS features allowing users to provide short bursts of detailed information regarding emergencies while transmitting the GPS coordinates of their locations. This makes emergency responses fast and effective.
Offering students, administrators, and anxious parents peace of mind that communication breakdowns won’t exacerbate terrifying situations on college campuses and allowing emergency responders the ability to act as needed to manage these situations and more.
From student protests to football games and weather emergencies, such as tornados to day-to-day management of large student bodies, college personnel need to be able to communicate effectively and efficiently. Push to talk radios facilitate effective voice and text communications regardless of power outages, weather systems, background noise, and more.
