How Push To Talk (PTT) works
Push To Talk (PTT) is a mobile technology that allows your field personnel to use their GSM mobile phone just like a business radio. At the push of a button, staff can broadcast to the whole team or hold a private one-to-one conversation.
But the key advantage of PTT compared with a walkie-talkie radio system is coverage. Because Push To Talk uses the global GSM network it can work almost anywhere in the world, whereas a traditional radio can only be used when within reception of the base transmitter which can be only a few miles.
