Broadband Push-to-Talk / Push-to-Talk over Cellular
Push-to-Talk over Cellular uses broadband or mobile data networks to provide instant group voice communication similar to a radio system. It is useful for organizations that need rapid team communication across wide coverage areas without relying only on traditional radio infrastructure.
When broadband push-to-talk is the better answer
Where an organization operates across a wide area already covered by mobile networks, PTToC delivers radio-style group voice without building radio infrastructure. There is no repeater to site, no licence to hold and no coverage gap to engineer around, provided the mobile coverage is sound. Devices can be handsets, ruggedised radios or an application on a phone the user already carries.
Where it is not
PTToC depends on the mobile network. Where operations run beyond coverage, or where communication must survive a network outage, land mobile radio or satellite push-to-talk remains the right choice. Many organizations run both, with radio for the operational core and PTToC extending reach.
What BCE Systems provides
Requirement assessment, device selection, subscription and service configuration, group and user structure design, deployment, training and ongoing support. As a Motorola Solutions Silver Reseller we supply and support WAVE PTX and the associated device range.
Case study: Senaca EA, Nairobi
Senaca East Africa provides residential security services in Kitisuru, an affluent suburb north-west of Nairobi. Rolling terrain, long distances and heavily wooded estates meant their existing analogue radio network could not deliver reliable communications across all patrol zones, while network licence fees and maintenance on ageing hardware were consuming budget.
BCE Systems surveyed the zone and proposed Motorola Solutions WAVE PTX. Guards were equipped with TLK 100 radios operating over a local mobile network, with supervisors using the WAVE PTX mobile application to coordinate from headquarters on the other side of Nairobi. BCE Systems provided training, ongoing support and device management.
“Our security guards appreciate the new system as they know they can always reach the supervisor or other security officers promptly, wherever they are on their patrols. From a business perspective, we appreciate the reduced operational costs and the excellent service and support BCE Systems delivers.”
