What is Mission Critical Communications?

Based on 3GPP standards, Hytera's mission-critical communications, applications, and terminals provide enriched, secure, and future-proof 4G/5G mission-critical broadband services. Together with the Mobile Network Operators (MNOs), we empower the digital transformation for the mission-critical and business-critical communications users.

Public Safety (PS) agencies around the world, especially first responders such as police, firefighters, and medical services, rely on critical communications to respond to emergencies and need to ensure that communications networks should work when they need it most. While traditional narrowband technologies such as TETRA, DMR, and PDT have been capable of meeting PS agencies' voice-centric communication requirements, their broadband application capabilities are limited. 

Critical communications are transitioning to digital and broadband technologies. The development of new technologies and the shift in business trends towards data means that public safety, transportation, and utility users now demand more than voice and messaging services. They need new capabilities to improve situational awareness and operational efficiency. Video, high-speed data transmission, and multimedia dispatch are essential to enhance daily operations.

Therefore, 3GPP has introduced MCX (MCPTT, MCVideo, MCData) standards based on LTE technology. Mission critical communications initially focused on the public safety industry. Still, there is also strong interest in deploying MCX-based services in rail, mining, power grid, and any industry that requires reliable critical communications.

Hytera Mission Critical Communications

Hytera HyTalk MC solution, a mission critical communication system over public or private LTE networks based on 3GPP standard, is designed to deliver reliable and secure communication services, including MCPTT, MCVideo, MCData, as well as unified visualized dispatching services to all the vertical industries.

  • Standard

    Standard

    Hytera HyTalk MC solution bases on open 3GPP standards and is backed by a vast and mature industrial supply chain. This avoids vendor lock-in for both the mobile operator and the MC user, which supports a wide selection of vendors offering more cost-effective pricing.

  • QoS

    QoS

    Hytera HyTalk MC supports Quality of Service (QoS). The QoS guarantees on the services of the MCPTT platform provider and the mobile operator's network. Dedicated QCIs guarantee MC services from end to end.

  • Security
