2023 Special Olympics will benefit from Siyata's mission-critical broadband push-to-talk (PTT) communication services
Siyata Mobile Inc., a global provider of innovative Push-to-Talk over Cellular (“PoC”) and cellular signal booster solutions, today announced the successful deployment of its mission critical push-to-talk (MCPTT) solution for security and other communications at the 2023 Special Olympics New York Winter Games.
“For the second year in a row, our devices were donated to and used at the Special Olympics Winter Games in Syracuse, New York to equip certain security personnel and event volunteers with the communications tools they need to help keep athletes, coaches, volunteers and spectators safe,” said Marc Seelenfreund, Siyata CEO. “We are pleased to support this worthy cause and to be providing more solutions in support of the Games. Our SD7 MCPTT solution is well-suited for the severe weather conditions that can occur in Syracuse, the site for this year’s event.”
“We are pleased to once again be using Siyata’s SD7 solution at our Winter Games,” said David Burgess, Volunteer Director of Emergency Services for Special Olympics New York. “The SD7 is a robust cellular solution that is ideal for meeting our public safety needs and once again worked flawlessly during the Games.”
The SD7 enables push-to-talk communications for first responders and enterprise clients in a simple easy-to-use rugged Android based Push-To-Talk (PTT) device with excellent sound quality that operates over the high bandwidth 4G LTE network, providing consistent connectivity across the nation and internationally. Its IP68 rating, resistance to water and dust, drop protection, and robust battery make it well suited for use in harsh environments. Importantly, there is no need to invest in infrastructure such as radio towers or repeaters, and the SD7 allows first responders as well as secondary support personnel to quickly connect and coordinate on unified public cellular networks in North American and international markets.
