We keep frontline teams connected
Instant Connect software revolutionizes how mobile teams communicate and stay connected, so they're safer and more productive.
Born on 9/11
The need for converged, interoperable voice
The events of 9/11 exposed a glaring inability of first responders to communicate across organizational and technical boundaries: push-to-talk (PTT) devices and radio networks were isolated from each other, unable to connect to other devices and networks.
Cisco asked the question: What if all devices could share a common environment that allowed individuals to use virtually any device they wanted, anywhere, to communicate?
Soon after, software was devised to connect audio streams from various networks over IP. The journey towards unified communications had begun.
The platform that makes it all happen today is called Instant Connect Enterprise™ (ICE). Now, everything and everyone who need to be, can stay connected.
Instant Connect Enterprise (ICE)
The future of voice
Conventional push-to-talk (PTT) simply can't keep pace with today's rapidly-evolving communications breakthroughs – innovations that include auto-discovery of voice assets, automatic assembly and disassembly of dynamic talk groups, automated workflows triggered by IoT alerts, smart geofencing, and more.
The next-gen ICE platform – powered by the Dyna™ automation engine – is at the vanguard of these and other important advances in voice and data-based capabilities. ICE works across virtually any device or network so teams never get disconnected and instead, get the exponential improvement in performance they need to stay one step ahead of trouble.
Dynamic frontline communications
Data-driven, designed for the mission
Dynamic Frontline Communications™ represents a new class of automated, data-rich voice communications made possible by the ICE platform.
We deliver the world's first dynamic talk groups for frontline teams that need to manage voice and data communications in an increasingly dynamic world.
These smart talk groups are changing how workers across industries communicate and collaborate to achieve the mission.
