In order to communicate within a building, the emergency response team can be provided with paging, apps and walkie-talkies. Beeper systems (paging) and apps ensure that the emergency response organization is alerted quickly, effectively and reliably within seconds. After alerting the emergency response team, the communication taken over by walkie-talkies. These walkie-talkies have sufficient transmission power to establish a two-way connection in the entire building. Fast and reliable Emergency response means of communication make your organization decisive and efficient.
For decades walkie-talkies have been used for emergency response communication between people at great distances. In addition, walkie-talkies are frequently used by private individuals for holiday and recreation purposes. These walkie-talkies are used in the PMR band (446 MHz), no license is required for this band. The maximum transmission power of these two-way radios is 0,5 watts. In practice, this is often a range of up to 1 kilometer in favorable conditions. If the range of the license-free walkie-talkie is not sufficient, you can use professional walkie-talkies with a license from the Telecom Agency.
Professional licensed radios are widely used in security, industry and emergency services. Within the professional walkie-talkies there are roughly two different types: Analogue and digital. Analogue radios are affordable and have a range of about 5 to 10 km in open field. The downside is that they have a relatively poor voice quality combined with the ability to eavesdrop on them. Digital walkie-talkies have approximately 25% more range with the same power and the speech quality remains at a consistently high level. Digital walkie-talkies offer the user options to exchange voice messages and GPS location. In addition, reports from the fire panel can be sent via ESPA 4.4.4. to be displayed. In recent years, more and more digital radios have been sold instead of analog. The analog radio will be phased out slowly.
Initially, you will immediately opt for license-free walkie-talkies for price reasons (budget). We would, however, like to explicitly warn you about malfunctions. The license-free frequencies are used for a variety of wireless devices. It could therefore be possible that children with a walkie-talkie will disturb you during a Emergency response exercise. You will understand that this is absolutely undesirable during an actual calamity. The use of a licensed walkie-talkie ensures you can check for malfunctions. You get specific own frequencies for use.
Then pay close attention. The Telecom Agency advises you not to use license-free equipment for business-critical communication. Disturbing radios can affect your processes.
