Opting for an LTE-based mission-critical-push-to-talk (MCPTT) solution and abandoning land-mobile-radio (LMR) technology for vital public-safety communications is proving to be an operational and financial boon to the city of Dallas, Ga., according to its police chief.
Joe Duvall (pictured above), police chief in Dallas, Ga., said the city uses FirstNet PTT—the MCPTT solution from Samsung—as its primary voice communications service, with the L3Harris BeOn push-to-talk offering over Verizon Frontline as a backup. Personnel can access both systems via L3Harris XL portable devices with dual-SIM functionality.
