LTE Radios

Instant Wide Area Coverage Over anLTE (4G) and 3G Network
LTE radio provides instantaneous, wide area communication using an LTE (4G) and 3G
network*. LTE radio doesn’t require its own repeaters or IP network, therefore reducing
the cost of building, and maintaining a wide area radio network.
* Service availability depends on the country. Network coverage provided by a custom SIM card.

LTE (4G ) and 3G Network* IP500APP (iOSTM/AndroidTM
application) required.

One-to-Many
Communication

Full-Duplex
Communication••••Unlike mobile phones, the IP503H/IP501M users can immediately starttalking to all the radios in the sametalkgroup, with just a push of thetransmit (PTT ) button.

Our LTE Radios use full-duplex
conversation, which allows users
to talk and receive at the sametime. This allows smooth, telephone
like conversations.

Priority Interrupt Calling
The LTE radios provide
group calling with threeor more people. In caseof an emergency, you canbreak into an on-going callto transmit an importantmessage.
