Radio-PTT Interoperability

Integrate your instant communications solutions

Extend coverage, optimize capacity and drive productivity

With the Radio/PTT Interoperability solution, you can instantly communicate with your entire team using your Land Mobile Radio (LMR) or Push-to-talk (PTT) services from Bell. This compatibility helps you bridge the gap between your radio network and PTT technology with high data capacity. You get access to Canada’s largest LTE network1, which allows you to extend your LMR network coverage and upgrade to the latest PTT technology and devices.

How your business can benefit from Radio/PTT interoperability

Industry use cases

Transportation

Keep dispatchers, drivers and other staff connected across Canada, whether it is part of your day-to-day business, or an occasional call outside your Land Mobile Radio coverage area. Scale your communications during peak demand, using Radio/PTT Interoperability on drivers’ existing phones, keeping them connected without the need for additional radio handsets.

Solutions

Radio/PTT Interoperability using Radio over IP (RoIP)

Bell offers a simplified RoIP interoperability solution, to connect traditional Land Mobile Radio and Bell broadband Push-to-talk (PTT) users. Using a donor radio, Bell's interoperability solution seamlessly connects talkgroups across all devices and networks.

Radio/PTT Interoperability using Critical Connect

Bell's interoperability service allows public safety agencies to securely connect their P25 radio systems directly to Bell Push-to-talk users via a hosted ISSI gateway (Critical Connect).¹ This allows administrators to configure talkgroups between radio users and broadband PTT users, or partner agencies, in just a few clicks.
