No, PoC is a specific protocol that allows Push to Talk (PTT) communications through a cellular network, our Radio (IP5 01H) is a data device used for voice communications.
No. Our LTE radios are not cellular phones. They are push to talk two-way radios that work over the 4G/LTE/3G data networks. The units are designed to be used for commercial environments where you need to talk to one or more parties straight away. There is no need to dial a number as you push to speak directly to the other person or people in the group. They are designed to withstand rough environments and meet tough IP67 standards.
No, Icom will supply a custom SIM card. Each SIM has its own ID and password and will only work with an Icom supplied device. This custom SIM card will not work in any other device.
No, the supplied SIM will allow a connection direct to Icom’s secure cloud server and can only be used with an Icom supplied device.
Yes, this is a private system with a dedicated MPLS Connection from the LTE/3G Radio access network of carriers direct to our cloud servers. There is no use of public internet for a call control.
We’ve worked diligently to make sure that the highest level of encryption is in place on the cloud server to secure your private data and communications as well as adhering to all data privacy handling requirements to maintain your best interest.
The IP501H and IP501M are centrally controlled devices that typically have little interaction with the internet. That said, the IP501M has an Ethernet port that when used in combination with our VE-PG4 or another IP501M, can be setup to route connected devices to the internet or wherever a customer choses.
No, this is a data device, only devices connected through our private, secure cloud server can communicate with each other.
No, Icom will supply a custom SIM card. Each SIM has its own ID and password and will only work with an Icom supplied device. This custom SIM card will not work in any other device.
Yes, the IP501H, IP501M mobiles and RoIP Gateway VEPG4 are certified and approved by PTCRB and also approved by FCC/Industry Canada.
With PTCRB (PCS Type Certification Review Board) certification, operators and device manufacturers are confident of a device’s interoperability with wireless networks.
PTCRB certification verifies compliance with global industry standards for wireless cellular devices.
The PTCRB Working Group within the CTIA Certification program defines the requirements. Member operators are committed to ensuring device quality through a rigorous certification process.
Without PTCRB certification, manufacturers run the risk that their devices will perform poorly on wireless networks.
All devices that access a carriers tower in North America require PTCRB approval. A device that is not approved can be denied access from the carriers.
You are in non-compliance if the device is not approved by PTCRB and access can be denied by the carriers.
Traffic is controlled by a central server. The radio gains access to the server via LTE/3G network connections via SIM card.
Our US and Canadian servers are based in a secure locations in the US and Canada.
Yes, there is a monthly flat rate for unlimited usage.
No, the IP501H and IP501M requires an LTE 4G or 3G data signal in order to operate.
This is a private radio system. Users can only communicate with individuals that have been programmed into the system. A total of 500 users can be programmed into each device and 2000+ users can be part of a private system.
The IP501H portable and IP501M mobile operate exactly like a traditional radio. Placing an ALL, GROUP and/or INDIVIDUAL Call is available.
A total of 500 users can be programmed into each device and 2000+ users can be part of a private system.
The IP501H and IP501M are full duplex capable. This allows users to talk and listen at the same time - similar to a cell phone. Traditional two-way radios are simplex where each person has to wait till other party finishes before speaking.
Yes, the IP501H has Priority Calling, Man-down, Lone Worker & Emergency Signaling.
These radios are Waterproof, have built-in GPS and Bluetooth®, a Vibrate Alert, Voice Message Record and predefined Text Messages.
Traditional radios, either Analog or digital, use a narrow bandwidth to pass audio. This restricts the amount of information that can be transmitted. Given the IP501H is a data device operating via LTE, a much wider bandwidth is available.
The Icom IP501H portable, IP501M LTE mobile and Radio over IP Gateway VEPG4 are available in LTE-CONNECT System. Each product provides wide area communication using the 4G/LTE and 3G data networks. This allows you to make individual and group calls in the same manner as a conventional two-way radio. VEPG4 offers great felxibilty to integrate several radio technologies to LTE-Connect platform.
There is nothing more involved than purchasing the IP501H LTE portable and/or IP501M mobile (simple & easy installation) with airtime. We will set up the SIM and radios to your preference, ship and once you have received your radios, they are ready to use.
No, the IP501H and IP501M are license free to operate in USA/Canada/Mexico.
Unlike traditional radio, there are no requirements for infrastructure investment. No need to invest in repeaters, cabling, or radio programming. Once set up by your dealer, it’s as simple as turning on the unit and starting the call by pushing the PTT (push-to-talk) button.
