The panelists shared the consensus that broadband is the future for law enforcement users, while PDT systems will be the major communication networks for Chinese police in years to come before LTE for public safety is final ready.
During the event Yelin Jiang, VP of Hytera, talked about the Total Convergence solution which Hytera showcased at the 8th China International Exhibition on Police Equipment (CIEPE) in China National Convention Center on May 17-20. The Total Convergence solution not only horizontally integrates different communication standards for narrowband private network, broadband private network, public network and internet, but also vertically unifies terminals, infrastructure and applications. It achieves complete convergence of products, business and management, and will bring completely new experience for public security users and enable them to deal with various complicated scenarios efficiently.
On the technical development side, G. S. Kok, SVP of Hytera, took the stage with a detailed presentation of how Hytera managed to develop and promote the open standard DMR Tier III portfolio in such a successful way, and what is to come in the age of narrow-to-broad band migration.
