Let’s Talk! Hiring Two Way Radios, PoC Radios & Bodycams

Previously, we have touched upon 7 benefits of hiring two way radios, PoC radios, and bodycams. Let’s delve a little deeper into the benefits of hiring communication equipment with Digitall Comms.

 

Get The Right Equipment For You


Hiring communication equipment means flexibility, we have an extensive hire fleet available to choose from. You can test out various pieces of equipment to find which communication solution works best for you and can be tailored to your individual needs. This includes accessories too, trying to have all angles covered when purchasing can be a waste and costly. Especially if you don’t use the equipment frequently.

We understand that different events and teams may require different products which is why you don’t have to stick with the same equipment every time you hire from us. You can choose to try out the latest communication technology without taking the leap to purchase. On the other hand, if your solution didn’t get the result you wanted, we can help to create a new solution for you to try.

Repeaters are available to extend or boost your coverage if you have a large or obstructed site. Check out our blog if you’re unsure if you will require a repeater or speak to our expert team!

 

Safety First


Within the festive season, retail and businesses are busier than ever! Equipping your staff not only provides them with support and assurance but also the ability to require help at the press of a button, they are big benefits of walkie talkie hire.

With security heightened, venues and security teams need to be able to cope with the influx of people around for Halloween, Bonfire Night, and Christmas events. For crowd control, disturbances, busy shopping centres, the upcoming Christmas markets, and even the Christmas Light Switch On.

Two way radios have great features to help with safety of all staff and potential customers attending your business or event over the next few months. Read more on their features within the ‘Features’ section.

 

The Perfect Solution


Hiring communication equipment can be the easiest solution for many businesses.

The Christmas and New Year season are a perfect demonstration of why hiring communication equipment is the right solution for many. Many businesses and industries don’t need communication equipment all year round, however the festive period over Winter can mean they’re over-crowded and require extra safety & support that comms equipment delivers.

It is ideal if you have temporary staff over your busy periods. Learning how to use two way radios is a doddle, no intense training required, questions can be asked over the air waves. PoC radios are just as easy to handle, the functionality is similar to mobile phones & with most people being familiar with mobile phone technology it’s quite straight forward. That being said, instruction and training is available from our technical team.

A discussion that comes up frequently is – why not mobile phones? PoC can work on the phone network and also Wi-Fi, therefore are more reliable in terms of coverage. Call at the touch of a button or group calling. Mobile phones can be more expensive, and dangerous to use in certain industries. To find out more, why not check out our PoC vs Mobile Phone blog to see more differences between the communication devices.

 

Budget Friendly


Organisations get locked into a cycle of replacing cheap hand portables due to the poor quality, which just ends up costing more in the long run. Most communication equipment have an estimated lifespan of 5-7 years which overall makes it more cost effective. This is due to less money being spent continuously replacing devices, especially if you’re hiring since you’ll get a different set of radios each time that have been regularly checked and serviced between hires.

Transparent pricing with no surprise costs. No license fees for short term hiring of radio equipment, everything is included, your only payment would be your monthly fixed rate hire payment. Potential extra costs can be found within our Radio Hire Guide so you can be prepared for any situation. PoC radios may require SIM charges depending on the length of the hire, however our expert team can help you with this. Our hire rates vary and are dependent on how long the hire term is for.

 

Features


Our communication equipment has many features across all products. Two way radios include man down and lone worker, and other programmable features such as manager and group calling. These are perfect for outside lone workers, whether you’re a security officer or retail assistant. The Emergency Button can be programmed in the instance of a vital situation which travels back to the main device to alert them of an emergency, all at the push of a button. Due to these radios being a pure communication device, it lowers distractions and encourages productivity and awareness. Manager/Supervisory radios can be programmed to assist with direct & group calling.

PoC is brilliant due to the range of features it provides. Third-party apps are available on all PoC devices. If the app is available on Android devices, they function on PoC devices. Large area coverage ranging from nationally to world-wide, with different SIM options available.

Body cameras are great evidential devices, capturing both video and audio. These are also built with a programmable button, giving your staff easy access to emergency communication. Some models now have live-streaming capabilities, please chat to our expert team if this is something you would like to know more about.

 

Having communication devices to help with safety and efficiency is a major benefit of walkie talkie, PoC, and body cam hire. If you have any more questions regarding hiring of two way communication equipment, get in touch and our expert team will be happy to help with any enquiries!

Let’s Focus: Kenwood TK-3701D

Let’s Focus: Kenwood TK-3701D


The Kenwood TK-3701D is becoming a popular product amongst our customers. From security to schools, this licence-free radio is great for various industries. Let’s take a deep dive into the TK-3701D.

Part of the ProTalk range, the TK-3701D is a dual-mode analogue and digital two way radio. Therefore, it is ideal for mixed fleets or if you’re gradually upgrading your handsets to digital as you can easily switch between the two.

Perks

You receive all the perks of digital radios including the clear and crisp audio quality with less residual noise and extended coverage. With this in mind, there are a total of 48 preset channels (32 digital and 16 analogue) in 3 zones (2 digital and 1 analogue) which gives you freedom between the two modes. With an IP rating of IP54/55, it provides enough protection for any typical day-to-day duties. To find out more about IP ratings, click here.

Licence Free

As a result of being licence free, it operates on free-to-access public frequencies otherwise known as PMR446 channels. Another great feature of this radio is the straight-out-the-box use. In other words, it is already pre-programmed and can be used immediately with any type of two way radio. On the other hand, you may experience interference from other licence free radios in your area. However, if privacy is important to you, we have ‘code’ options available that we can program in that will ensure privacy.

Licence free radios are a great cost-effective option. For instance, the low price makes it easy for small businesses to benefit from quality communication and the features of digital radios, without the price of a licence.

Kenwood TK-3701D radios are popular across all industries due to their straightforward use and the many opportunities they offer. We have provided both security and schools with TK-3701D’s but have found other industries have found these radios have suited their needs.

Best Body Camera For Security Guards

Best Body Camera For Security Guards


Finding the right body camera for your business can be tricky. There are so many to choose from but what is the best body camera for security guards? The simple answer is there isn’t one singular body camera that’s the best. It all depends on how you use them.

Before we discuss the products on offer, let’s first consider why businesses choose a body worn camera for security and what features are available that will help you and your staff.

 

Why Choose Body Cameras

Gearing up with a security body camera comes with many benefits which is why they’re so important to use. With crime rates differing year to year and CCTV not available on every street corner, it’s the best way to protect your guards.

Video evidence is more reliable than verbal, meaning body cameras offer transparency and accountability. This results in the protection of your staff and business against any legal battle that may occur.

Most people change their attitude once they’re aware of being recorded which has the potential to instantly de-escalate a situation. Unfortunately, not everyone is put off by a camera. Some gain confidence whilst being filmed, leading those finding themselves in repercussions later down the line.

In addition, a security body camera can help for training purposes. This can help you see any room for improvement within the role and where training may be lacking. Improving your business and your staff.

 

Low End or Professional

A question that everyone is thinking; why should you get professional body cameras when there are low-end versions available? This is a very good query and a low-end security body camera may be cheaper but, as the saying goes, you get what you pay for.

Professional body cameras are more durable and have a higher IP rating than lower-end cameras. This leads to a longer life span as one drop or fall will not cause as much damage and you’re not paying out for repairs or replacements as often.

Professional body cameras have long battery life and a big storage capacity. Different models of security body cameras have different storage capacity however these still are larger than what you will find on lower-end body cameras. The higher-end body cameras can transfer footage easily over Wi-Fi or 4G. Lower-end cameras transfer physically using cables.

A big difference between the two is the viewing angles. Low-end body cameras offer a limited viewing angle whereas professional body cameras offer a wider angle which is recommended for patrol work. This along with HD video quality makes professional body cameras worth the money invested into them.

Lower-end body cameras can be blurry and pixelated whereas professional body cameras have the ability to time and date stamp, making it easier to organise and find any footage that you may need later.

 

Many Features Available

The best body camera for security guards should have all the features that will make your day-to-day job easier and more efficient.

A great feature of a body-worn camera for security is the 30-second pre and post record time. The second your staff press the record button, your body camera has already stored the previous 30 seconds of the action.

You have access to an emergency button which is vital in any potentially dangerous situations and any lone workers that could be patrolling. One press and the emergency message is sent back to alert anyone who will get an emergency service out to them. Body cameras have a built-in GPS to track any body cameras & ultimately team members that are out on the job.

The best body camera for security guards should be robust, compact, and incorporate a high IP rating to cover any weather conditions or area permitting situations your security staff may be working in. 

With up to 10 hours of recording time and a high-quality microphone to pick up any audio, body cameras are great to attach for your shift.

 

High Tech Body Camera Integration

Be aware of your staff’s safety whilst also catching real-time action! 

Body cameras are constantly improving with new technology developing every year. The newest release is live streaming, seen in our new Halo partnership. Continuous access to live video feeds comes with many opportunities for safety in many ways. Emergency assistance has become easier to acquire with no wait times for your security guard to call it in. Assistance will be sent at the first sign of trouble, letting the viewer maintain situational awareness.

Using live streaming means you have a secure chain of evidence at your fingertips. Don’t wait for the body camera to come back to the office to then shift through the hours of footage waiting.

 

Two In One

POC, or push-to-talk over cellular, is a time and money-saving option. These are a great body-worn camera for security as they can incorporate into your current system, whether you have two way radios or mobile phones. These body cameras work using cellular, Wi-Fi and 4G. You’re less likely to encounter signal problems and the added experience of national and international coverage.

What Are PoC Radios?

What Is An IP Rating? IP Ratings Explained

An important term when dealing with two way radios is IP Rating. However, this can cause confusion amongst first time or non-technical users as you can be unsure whether your environment needs high IP rated radios.

What is an IP rating and how does it affect radio communication?

 

IP Ratings Explained


IP or Ingress Protection is an industry 2-digit rating system given to products in communications in regards to how they withstand liquids, dust, and solids. In other words, is this product waterproof and dust resistant.

It was developed by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) who takes these products and gives them special testing which results in the rating. This is a recognised classification system all over the world.

 

First Digit

The first digit within an IP rating ranges from 0 to 6. The number increases with the degree of protection against solid objects and dust.

 

Second Digit

Health and safety is vital. Two way radios can create a faster, more effective response to emergency situations, weather conditions, and security issues.

Being aware of your IP rating is vital depending on your environment. If you’re in a high-risk location where there is the potential for your two way radios to fall, come into contact with dust, or could suffer water damage, then having a high IP rating is important.

 

Underneath, we have inserted an IP Ratings Explained Chart to give you an idea of each level of protection. 

IP Rating Explained

 

The minimum of our two way radios is an IP of IP54, with higher IP radios available. If you’re not sure whether you’re looking at the correct IP rated two way radios, get in contact with our expert team who will be happy to discuss this with you.

Why Two Way Radios Would Benefit Your Golf Club

With outdoor sports facilities having re-opened on Monday 29th, your golf club may still be trying to pick up from where you left off.

You want your business to be up and running smoothly, as quick as possible and we want that too. To aid in your process, check out these 5 reasons why two way radios would benefit your golf club and how we can partner together so that you have everything off to a tee.

 

STAY CONNECTED


Staying connected to all members of staff and being organised has never been easier.

No matter if you’re holding a few club players or a tournament, by equipping your receptionist, caddies, greenkeepers, and other on-site staff with walkie talkies enables seamless communication.

 

 

LONE WORKER FEATURE


Greenkeepers are readily accessible whilst out on the golf course in case of any emergencies. With the lone worker feature, you know your staff are safe at all times and able to relay feedback on course conditions throughout the day. This will also work for any other lone working staff that could face any on the job risks.

 

 

HEALTH AND SAFETY


Health and safety is vital. Two way radios can create a faster, more effective response to emergency situations, weather conditions, and security issues.

 

 

KEEP WELL STOCKED


In retail, you never want to hear the words ‘Out Of Stock’. Walkie talkies allow you to maximise sales and keep track of stock levels throughout the golf club. Contact the staff manning beverage carts, catering outlets, or club shop in an instant. The use of radios can have your club operating to full potential.

 

 

COMBAT SIGNAL PROBLEMS


No signal whilst out on the golf course? We have the answer for that! Unlike personal mobile phones, a two way radio solution can help to combat coverage issues. 

 

That said, if mobile phones are your preferred method of communication and prove to work just fine, we have a solution coming for you!

Security Guard Equipment – Protect Your Staff

Security Guard Equipment in Depth


Christmas and New Year are a great and fun time of year! But this also means fun can turn serious fast. That’s where your security company comes in. Having the right security guard equipment is vital when working in Security and you have to make sure your guards are prepared for anything that might be thrown at them, figuratively and literally.

Being out with the public can be tough, that’s why Digitall Comms supply a range of equipment to keep your workers safe when out on the job, from the best body cameras for security guards to a range of security walkie talkies. We even have new products available such as Stab Vests and Slash Gloves.

We have gathered together information regarding each product to help you discover what equipment will work for you.

Catch It On Camera


Every second counts, especially when involved within a potentially violent situation or on a lonely night shift. Collecting evidence is important and plays a role in protecting you and your company if you get into hot water.

Security body cameras are a great way to move into the digital age. Have evidence at the tip of your finger whilst providing many features to assist in your duties. These include an emergency alarm which can be triggered at the push of a button, sleek and lightweight build to make it easier to carry, high-quality audio, and some security body cameras models allow night vision.

Keep Yourself Protected


With knife and sharp instrument crime increasing according to the Commons Library, it is vital to make sure all your staff are safe when dealing with the general public. Security guards have to be prepared for anything, especially a sharp weapon being brought to the scene.

Stab Vests are an ideal piece of security guard equipment to limit any injury one may cause and we are proud to be able to offer this extra support. Stab vests can also protect against blunt force trauma as well as sharp objects, offering more protection.

Don’t Miscommunicate


Delayed responses to the main office can cause confusion and Team B just aren’t picking up the phone. Maybe it’s time to replace your current communicating devices with a fast and reliable system without relying on them answering the phone.

Two way radios for security guards are a great form of communication devices. With many different models offering an array of features, we can help find the perfect solution for you. Easily accessible features ideal for security such as emergency alarm, lone worker, and instant connection. Your radios can be connected to different accessories including a radio earpiece which you can find out below!

No More Signal Issues

In addition to regular two way radios, you may benefit from using POC (Push-to-talk over cellular). Do you find yourself struggling with contacting your team at the same time? Or do they struggle with signal when on patrol?

Push-to-talk over cellular may be your solution, especially for Security. Working on cellular, Wi-Fi and 4G to keep you connected to the rest of the radio fleet nationwide. POC radio also gives you the advantage of their one-to-many system, communicating with all your staff at once, especially with the GPS Mapping feature which helps you locate specific radios and thus specific members of staff.

Loud and Clear

Hands free is the way to go! No need to hand-carry any device and your hands are free for any unexpected scuffles. Having a voice in your ear helps to understand any communication loud and clear without having to struggle against background noise to hear your colleague.

A radio earpiece keeps the communication flowing and makes it easier for the security guards to be kept up to date without having to have a hand-on the security walkie talkie 24/7. We do a variety of earpieces for you to choose from; from D-shaped, to surveillance, it’s up to you!

We also offer a range of noise-cancelling headsets. Specifically used for noisier environments such as club door security or events, to protect your staff’s hearing. You will also receive clear communication through your security walkie talkie.

Just let us know when you enquire and our Radio Enquiry Team will be happy to help!

A Helping Hand

Protect your hands for any dangerous situation that could arise. You want to make sure that if anyone was to attack with a sharp object, your hands are still in a stable condition to be able to stabilize the situation or defend yourself.

That’s where Slash Resistant Gloves come in. Protect your hands whatever the situation throws at you. There are different weights and materials of slash gloves to choose from depending on the use. Slash gloves are designed to perform in harsh environments and are flexible enough to give you full movement.

Protecting Your Empty Property During Lockdown

Protecting Your Empty Property During Lockdown


Winter is typically a busy period for security, this year is no exception. We know empty property is an attractive target for burglars due to them being less secure than our homes.

With a large majority of people working from home, companies are leaving office premises and corporate buildings vacant.

Police and Security Guards are seeing a rise in burglaries as we head into the darker days and colder nights and this time we need to be prepared against opportunistic thieves.

 

Empty office? It’s not just thievery you need to watch out for…


You won’t only be protecting the premises against theft but also against squatters & fly tipping.

Even before lockdown, there were 19,011 burglaries in April 2020 alone both domestic and commercial according to the UK Crime Stats.

This is where you come in. Businesses need you to protect their equipment as these tend to be worth a lot more than what thieves would generally find at a residential property.

To be able to offer empty property security you need to make sure your staff are well-equipped and protected too.

 

How can we help you protect?


Digitall Comms provides a wide array of solutions to help your staff provide 24 hour security and patrols.

POC, or push-to-talk over cellular are great security radios.

They work using cellular, Wi-Fi and 4G which means that when your staff are patrolling they are less likely to lose signal with national and international coverage.

Even though POC uses cellular they work like two way radios so you get all the features of a digital radio including instant push-to-talk. 

Contact your team at the push of a button anywhere in the country.

 

One to one, or one to everyone!


They feature a one-to-many system which unlike mobile phones one-to-one, they use the same system as a regular two way radio where you communicate with many people at once.

These are good for security radios as they also feature GPS Mapping meaning you can view the real-time location of each device.

This feature is designed with lone workers and isolated premises in mind.

Unlike mobile phones where your staff may be easily distracted by text messages, games, or the internet whilst on shift, with POC they won’t have access to these areas meaning productivity will be maximised as they are less distracted but still easily accessible.

POC two way radios are easy to use and manage, and can also work alongside any two way security radios or mobile phones you currently use.

 

Better, together


If you’re looking for a POC radio that does a little more, why not look into a body camera with an integrated POC system?

This gives you the ability to live stream bodycam footage so you can see the action in real time rather than having to wait for the bodycam to be returned back to the office whilst having a push-to-talk button to be able to communicate.

A body camera and two way radio in one, who’d have thought it?

 

And that’s not all…


We also offer accessories!

A popular extra addition, security earpieces are a must-have when working with two way radios. There are many different earpieces to choose from, it depends on what will suit your needs and your staff.

Earpieces give you the ability to use your two way radio quickly and with ease, perfect for emergency situations. 

There are also different shapes depending on what the user finds more comfortable or how discreet it needs to be. 

Security earpieces allow members of the team to hear communication clearer than from the radio speaker itself. They also allow members that don’t necessarily need the ability to communicate but need access to hear the constant communication.

Get your empty property security staff protected over Winter and enquire about POC radios and accessories today!

Rwanda Education Project – #Raise4Rwanda

The story so far…

So you all know that one of our Digitall Comms‘ owners Amanda climbed the lesser known Yorkshire 3 peaks last month which kick started this project with the ambitious fundraising target of £1000.00. Amanda reached a fantastic £965.00 through all of your very kind and generous donations.

Following Amanda’s fundraising two very thoughful friends Angie & Fiona had big Birthday Celebrations & wanted to continue the support for this wonderful project, they asked all their friends and family to donate toward the Rwanda School Build Project

Along with this the regular supporters, friends and family of HCC we are now totalling a whopping £1900. Amazing right?!

The Story Continues

Yes it’s a fantastic effort and, well, we didn’t want to stop there…

As a recap the first phase of this vision to build the Rwanda School will cost our dear friends Kendi & Pacifique £8000.00. So we thought we’d go all out and race toward the £8000.00

How Far Does £8000.00 go to build a school in Rwanda?

Phase One will see Kendi & Pacifique purchase land, gain planning consent, and build 2 classrooms for the primary school children.

Our Why

The short of why we are raising funds: the children in Rwanda do not have access to free education like in many other countries around the globe. Unfortunately 1 in 5 children in Africa do not receive an education if they do not have the financial means to pay for school. Our friends, Pacifique and Kendi, are leaders in their community currently helping with children, women and men to build better lives for themselves and their families. (You may have seen and helped out previously with buying sewing machines for the women to learn skills and earn an income from our previous fundraising page!) Myself (and most of the team) have visited Muzanse and have seen the tremendous work Pacifique and Kendi are doing to love and provide for those in their community.

The current pandemic has the world hard, Kendi has had to make the difficult decision of permanently closing their rented school premises due to not having enough space for social distancing to meet the government guidelines.

Timeline

As you will realise the importance of the communities children getting back into education, we are hoping to reach the target of £8000.00 by the end of 2020. This way Kendi & Pacifique can plan for the build as soon as possible.
