TalkgroupSM
Instant communication for larger, local groups.

Talkgroup
Get the word out to up to 200 people who are both in the same network "fleet" code and within the same local calling area. Ideal for large security, dispatch and industrial teams, TalkgroupSM is a group push-to-talk service that allows pre-defined groups to participate in ongoing communications.
Key Features
Local only. All Talkgroup members must be located within the same local calling area. Also, initiation of, and particiaption in, Talkgroups can only occur within your home calling area.
Handles large groups. Each Talkgroup can consist of up to 200 users, although as with any group service, call quality may be reduced as group size increases.
Multiple group membership. Users can belong to up to 250 groups (25 can be stored on a phone).
Single group join. Users can monitor only one Talkgroup at a time. Similar to tuning into a radio station, users select which Talkgroup to monitor and press “join”, which allow them to hear conversations pertinent to only that Talkgroup.
Centralized group management. An Account Administrator must create and manage groups, online and via the Talkgroup Management tool (25.7KB PDF); other authorized users may setup a Talkgroup by calling Customer Care.
Talkgroup Scan. Available on select phones, this feature allows users to simultaneously monitor communications on up to four Talkgroups.
Participant status. Members of a Talkgroup can identify who is speaking on a Talkgroup call.
