How it works?

Loudtalks client supports interaction with the PC-radio hardware interface units making it a radio gateway. In effect the radio network within the range of the transceiver, linked to a PC running Loudtalks radio gateway becomes a special type of end point, which could be linked using virtual channels to any users or other gateways within your network. A typical setup includes the following components:

  • A PC connected to the internet and running Loudtalks client software in a radio gateway mode
  • A two-way radio unit (base station, mobile or handheld), connected to the radio network
  • PC-radio interface unit, providing a physical link between the PC and the radio
  • Dispatch application running on a remote PC or Windows Mobile device
