Around the world, first responders rely heavily on paging and callout services to quickly alert emergency services personnel on call to incidents, provide them with short and precise information about the incident at hand, and to find out who is able to respond.
Callout is a defined specification developed by TCCA for TETRA networks for critical two-way alerting, but to date there has been no parallel specification for 3GPP 4G and 5G broadband networks. Now, TCCA has published new Broadband Callout specifications for 3GPP-enabled mission critical networks using broadband MCX functionality – Mission Critical Push-to-Talk Voice (MCPTT), Mission Critical Video (MCVideo) and Mission Critical Data (MC Data).
