Lead the evolution to mission-critical communications over LTE — discover how Motorola Solutions is driving development of the MCPTT Standard to meet the unique needs of Public Safety.
Our Kodiak Broadband PTT platform sets the standard for instantaneous 1-to-many and 1-to-1 communications over LTE and Wi-Fi networks.
Based on industry standards, the Kodiak Broadband PTT platform distinguishes itself with high performance, network integration, rich features, broad choice of compatible devices, interoperability with two-way radio systems, and APIs for integration into 3rd-party productivity applications. Our Kodiak platform has by far the largest installed user base of standards-compliant broadband PTT service in the world.
The Kodiak Broadband PTT platform is an ideal solution for mobile workforce communications, augmentation of two-way radio systems, and PTTenablement of third-party productivity applications.
Transforming PTT to Broadband and Standards-Based Solution
Our Kodiak Broadband PTT platform delivers instantaneous 1-to-many and 1-to-1 voice communications cost-effectively over 4G/LTE, 3G, and Wi-Fi networks, and it is based upon the Open Mobile Alliance’s (OMA) Push-to-Talk over Cellular (PoC) standard. This standard is also the foundation of OMA’s Push to Communicate for Public Safety (PCPS) standard, which provides a commercial-ready baseline to 3GPP’s MCPTT standard for mission-critical communications. Finally, the Kodiak platform features a cloud-hosted resilient platform with high scalability and reliability.
End customers in commercial and public safety sectors can get the following key benefits when they use our Kodiak Broadband PTT platform:
- Ubiquitous nationwide wide-area coverage, leveraging the latest commercial and private networks •
- Effective in-building coverage via Wi-Fi
- PTT and mobile broadband data applications on a single device, enabling simplified, efficient, and cost-effective use of voice + data communications
- Augmentation of an existing two-way radio system to extend coverage, reserve or expand capacity and allow more workers to use PTT
- Future-proof PTT investment and industrywide ecosystem support due to compliance with industry standards
- PTT platform tightly integrated with the carrier’s network and daily operations, with option of being used for carrier-agnostic over-thetop PTT
- MCPTT-compliant features that enhance safety, increase situational awareness, and improve operational efficiency
Superior Performance and Advanced Features
Our Kodiak Broadband PTT platform solution delivers an enhanced user experience with a rich set of communication and collaboration features:
Sub-Second Call Set-Up
Enables instant voice communication with a group or an individual with the push of a button.
High Voice Quality
Uses wideband AMR codec that provides a MOS score as high as 4.1-4.2.
Multimedia Messaging
Supports not only PTT voice but also messaging with text, picture, video, file, recorded voice, and location.
Location-Based Services On Device
Allows users to track team members’ location, share their own location, set up geo-fencing, and receive an automatic alert when a fence is crossed.
Encryption Based ON AES 256
Protects PTT users from unauthorized call interception or monitoring. Encryption is compliant with FIPS 140-2 Level 1 requirements, with FIPS validation.
Real-Time Presence
Presence status includes Available, Do Not Disturb (DND), and Offline.
Multiple Application Modes
Provides two client modes: PTT Radio, which emulates the experience with a traditional two-way radio, and a Standard mode, which offers full client functionality.
One-Touch Calling
Allows the user to press the PTT key once to call a user-defined contact or group, regardless of the phone’s current state (idle PTT application or locked device screen).
Voice Message Fallback
Automatically records and sends a voice message when a user initiates a PTT call but the recipient is not available.
Late-Join/Re-Join Functionality
Allows a user to easily join or re-join a group call after it is started.
Pre-Defined And Ad-Hoc Group Calling
Provides the user with the capability to select multiple contacts and then initiate a group call on the fly.
Call Preemption Via Supervisory Override
Allows a designated user to take over the PTT floor at any time, even when somebody else is talking.
Large Talkgroups
Supports limited number of groups with up to 3,000 members.
Broadcast Calling
Initiates a preemptive one-way call to a large group of people at the same time.
Talkgroup Scanning With Priority
Allows a PTT user to select up to eight talk groups for monitoring, with three that can be set up as prioritized groups.
Alerts
Provides the convenience of a quick alert to request a call back or display a missed call.
