Next Generation of Broadband Push to Talk Solution

13 October 2021, Wednesday – As an advocate of digitalisation and technology that promotes business efficiency, ASPRI was pleased to work with Motorola Solutions to organise a webinar for our members. The webinar was also jointly organised by Technics Communication & Electronics (TCE), a distributor of Motorola products.

The webinar, attended by around 50 pax, covered Motorola’s solutions which were suitable for hazardous environments such as work sites in the Process industry. Product Sales Specialist of Motorola Solutions, Mr Choong Kit Soon, opened the webinar with an overview of Motorola’s products and services. More details of all products be found here.

Firstly, Mr Choong shared about three devices of different tiers. They are the Wave PTX Two-Way Radios TLK 100/150, MOTOTRBO Ion, and EVOLVE LTE. With it being the most basic of the three devices, the TLK100/150 is a rugged two-way radio which is easy to use and manage.

The MOTOTRBO Ion is a tier higher than the TLK100/150. A business-ready communication device with all-on voice and broadband data capabilities, it has smartphone capabilities with built-in camera, touch screen, app ecosystem, and runs an Android operating system.

The highest tier device, EVOLVE LTE, looks like a typical smartphone but with the capabilities of radio. It possesses a built-in push-to-talk (PTT) button, LTE antenna, touch screen, and a camera, all enclosed in a rugged case.

Mr Choong also touched on the Wave PTX mobile app that allows users to turn their smartphone into a PTT handset. This could be useful for users that want the speed and simplicity of PTT communications, and the ability to share multimedia information at the touch of a button. He also shared on the Wave PTX Dispatch – a centralised communication console that allows a user to instantly communicate with other users on the same channel. It also allows for location monitoring.

Lastly, Sales Manager of TCE, Mr Boon, shared a special package of discounted prices specially for ASPRI members. Interested attendees were asked to indicate their interests in a survey after the Q&A session.

ASPRI would like to thank Motorola Solutions, TCE, and all ASPRI members that attended for making this webinar possible. We will continue to connect our members with tools and technology that help to improve their business efficiency.
