Ahead of this year’s highly anticipated edition in the UAE, Kirisun has detailed its plans to present an impressive array of next-generation innovations that underscore the company’s commitment to innovation and customisation. Terry Lin, Vice President of Kirisun, said, “DMR has become very popular and is widely used across the critical communications landscape. Nowadays more and more public safety organisations are using DMR in a mission-critical context as a more valid and cost-efficient system for the critical communication features they need. Meanwhile, we are also seeing fast increases in using DMR technology on mission-critical communication for government emergency departments and tactical or incident teams. At Kirisun, innovation drives our endeavours. We continuously push the boundaries to ensure our DMR product and solutions evolve with our users’ needs in both business-critical and mission-critical communication areas.”

With CCW 2024 fast approaching, Kirisun will showcase its ETSI TS 102-361 DMR technology and products, these end-to-end professional wireless solutions also offer dispatching, network management, voice recording, and geographic information solutions. Others confirmed to be presented at DWTC include Kirisun’s PTT product and solution range which includes the TD60 and TD66, state-of-the-art dual-mode professional radios that support DMR T2, T3, and Push-to-Talk over Cellular (PTToC) functionalities, and are fully packed with features which are designed to fulfil critical communications needs such as secured Bluetooth data transformation and customised voice encoders.

Other key highlights will also include PTToC solutions as Kirisun unveils its versatile KiTalk category that offers tailored solutions to meet specific business-critical communications challenges. Designed for frontline officers, operational vehicles, and control rooms, CCW will enable attendees to become well-versed in Kirisun’s convergence communication system expertise. The company will detail how frontline teams can make better, safer, and more informed decisions with these solutions by maximising their data usage and communication capabilities across different radio systems.

Lin added, “We always aim to deliver tailored solutions that truly matter. PTToC is an important new broadband technology for the future of critical communications and we are excited to showcase our KiTalk PTToC solutions that offer variants like KiTalk-Cloud, KiTalk-SME, and KiTalk-Pro. Each is designed to address unique sector-specific requirements and offerings like these exemplify our dedication to providing bespoke communication solutions to those we serve. We pride ourselves on recognising the diverse challenges our users encounter and customisation remains pivotal.”

Additionally, Kirisun will present the official launch of its new 4G and 5G body-worn cameras during CCW. Both devices offer user-friendly operation and boast an extended battery life that lasts beyond a full shift. They ensure reliable capture of high-quality video, securely storing and organising it with precise time, date, and location information. This meticulous approach maintains the integrity of evidence, supporting thorough incident investigations. Furthermore, Kirisun will unveil an exhilarating plan to introduce a groundbreaking Intrinsically Safe Explosion-Proof PTToC radio at CCW. This pioneering device marks the world’s first explosion-proof PTToC radio, boasting a meticulously crafted Professional PMR design.

“Innovate for a Safer World”, Hytera’s latest brand campaign theme, also the theme for its exhibition at CCW2024, encapsulates what the leading critical communications solution provider is to present and convey. At its booth J10, Hytera will showcase its enduring mission to enhance operations safety and efficiency for various sectors through its technological innovation. The new products to be unveiled span its multiple product lines such as Body Worn Camera (BWC) and Digital Evidence Management (DEM), Push-to-talk over Cellular (PoC) and Mission Critical Services (MCS), Dual-mode radio, intrinsically safe two-way radio, and smartphone.

Stanley Song, head of Hytera UAE and VP of Hytera, expressed enthusiasm about the upcoming event, stating: “At the core of Hytera’s development is innovation – a driving force for unlocking new value and a fundamental pillar for fulfilling our commitment to those we serve.

Amongst the latest Hytera innovations to be unveiled at CCW 2024 is the SC880 5G Body Camera – a state-of-the-art smart device with Ultra High Definition (UHD) video recording and live streaming. Equipped with Electronic Image Stabilization (EIS) technology and a high-power infrared LED light, the SC880 ensures stable and clear footage capture, whether in day or night conditions, serving as a critical component for revealing essential details during operations. Notable features include a single button push-to-talk (PTT) function which seamlessly transforms the camera into a two-way radio through Hytera PoC Solution, providing added versatility for users.

Hytera is one of the few providers that offers a complete body camera portfolio and DEM software at the same time, which makes it a strong player in the market. Its Cloud-native Digital Evidence Management Platform, a robust innovation designed for the efficient collection, storage, and automatic analysis of digital evidence from various sources, will surely garner attention from the public safety and security sector. Hytera DEM platform supports flexible and comprehensive evidence management suited for law enforcement and security industries.

The PDC5 Series Dual-mode Rugged Radio will also be on public display for the first time. Designed to provide seamless, dual-mode communication with superior audio quality and robust connectivity, the PDC5 Series is optimized for critical industries such as railways and security. This series of radios is essential for government institutions and businesses who want to leverage both Professional Mobile Radio (PMR) and LTE technologies.

Hytera will also spotlight three products from its Intrinsically Safe (IS) device portfolio, ideal for industries with operations in hazardous environments of explosive gas and combustible dust. These products include the PNC460U, a ruggedized smartphone with versatile PTT features and various data applications empowered by Android 12, as well as two-way radios PT890Ex and HP79XEx. The radios of TETRA and DMR protocols provide reliable voice calls optimized with AI-based noise cancellation in noisy industrial environments.
