At a time when keywords such as 'Internet of Things' (IoT) and 'digital transformation' are being talked about more frequently, it is important to understand how these things work and how they can impact on your operations. One application that can provide a direct benefit is called Push-To-Talk over Celluar (PoC or PTToC).
With there being a wide variety of PoC applications available, and new ones being created each day, it can be hard for the end-user and decision-maker to decide which is best. Therefore, ecom has built a section on its website (https://www.ecom-ex.com/nc/apps/) to show some applications which have been well-tested with ecom devices. These applications support group calls, messages, individual calls and a lot of more features. Additionally, they can support interconnectivity existing radio infrastructure such as Tetra or DMR.
ecom instruments is a provider of mobile devices for hazardous areas, such as smartphones, tablets or PDA's. With the latest products, Smart-Ex® 01 / Ex-Handy 09 and the Tab-Ex® 01 series, ecom brought the world-wide most used operating system in restricted work-spaces. Due to the fact that all Android devices are running on KitKat (4.4.4) as a minimum, all devices are able to run PoC applications. Additionally, they support 4G/LTE capabilities to have excellent data transmission rates and the best speech quality provided to your co-worker, as well as supporting latest standards of WiFi to have best-practice options for coverage in every area and situation. The dedicated side buttons, such as the yellow PTT button and the red emergency button on Smart-Ex® 01 / Ex-Handy 09, provide more functionality to the user.
For best audio support in every situation, ecom is also steadily increasing its portfolio for audio accessories. The latest device is the Ex-RSM Aurelis BT, which is a fully functional remote-speaker microphone with Bluetooth connection and options to connect a wide variety of environmental-dependent accessories for best audibility. Furthermore, lightweight headsets (ComCom Ex) or hearing protection headsets (ProTac XP ATEX) can be found in the portfolio.
