Telecom network and software giant Nokia has launched Nokia Group Communications portfolio – as part of the expansion of its LTE-based public safety solutions.
Motorola is one of the leaders in public safety solutions.
Nokia Group Communications will enable first responder teams to securely communicate through new applications such as instant video connectivity alongside traditional push-to-talk features on a single device, to enhance operations and safety, said Nokia.
Nokia has pre-integrated applications onto a range of devices to meet the high-security demands of public safety agencies. Field workers and command controllers can share live video feeds with each other to enhance their knowledge and ability to react in any situation by utilizing Nokia’s Group Communications portfolio.
Nokia Group Communications portfolio is compatible with 3G and Wi-Fi networks in order to ensure high service availability even if there is no LTE network coverage.
The Finnish technology company said Nokia Group Communications can be used with the Nokia Compact Network, allowing first responders to quickly deploy a private network in emergency situations.
The high-capacity platform supports real-time push-to-video for 1,000 active users and 20,000 push-to-talk active users per single server with the ability to scale. Software license is offered on a pay-as-you-grow basis. Dispatch consoles incorporate voice, video and mobile CCTV features and fast call set up with latency below 300 milliseconds are the additional features.
“Nokia Group Communications further bolsters our public safety offer with capabilities that will help first responders react more effectively in a crisis,” said Henri Tallon, head of Public Sector at Nokia, in a statement.
