POCSTARS has already provided strong support for numerous large-scale events.

The Tour de Suisse, Switzerland's most prestigious cycling race, takes place from June 11-20, 2023. The race covers over 1,300 kilometers across eight stages and passes through all regions of Switzerland. POCSTARS PTToC solution was used during the largest cycling race in Switzerland, covering the entire country. 

Before the race, the service team assembled at a designated location, and during the race, they monitored the entire course at speeds ranging from 30 km/h to 90 km/h. They kept track of the game situation and were able to provide timely rescue services if any athletes encountered emergencies.

The race presented significant challenges due to the complex terrain and weather conditions. However, with the Push-to-Talk over Cellular (PTToC) communication system provided by POCSTARS, the service team was able to communicate quickly and deliver timely services, ensuring the smooth progress of the competition.

Following the event, the Swiss Pocstar customer stated;

"All radios worked flawlessly during the race. Communication was fast and voice quality was excellent. Your solution is top-notch. Thank you for your great and speedy support. Greetings from Switzerland!"

POCSTARS has already provided strong support for numerous large-scale events, and the company strives to deliver timely and effective communication solutions for an ever-expanding range of applications.
