Discussing the product, a spokesperson said: “The Tait R5 is a powerful broadband-based edge computing platform which can integrate with P25 and DMR radio networks, and Tait mobile terminals.
“It delivers a single in-vehicle interface to access a broadband hotspot, push-to-talk over cellular, 4G/5G cellular networks, and mapping. [It can also] manage multiple video streams, and control vehicle lights, sirens, external PA speakers and matrix signage.”
The solution – which is designed for public safety – is the first of its kind to be approved by the UK's Emergency Services Network, according to the statement.
Tait director of global solutions, Dan Draughn, said: “Tait is pleased to partner with Handsfree to take this technology worldwide, not only for public safety agencies but also for the benefit of other industries such as utilities.
"The R5 provides a unique blend of advanced mobile broadband and edge computing capabilities and can be deployed on either private LTE or commercial carrier networks.”
