Talkgroups Provide The Ultimate In Flexibility

Exponential progression of Handset to Talkgroup ratio (i.e., need more and more handsets to justify additional free Talkgroups). Talkgroup setups can also be used Over the Air & with Iridium's PTT Command Center.

Minimum: 5 active Handsets under the Subscriber Organization to get 1 Free Small Talkgroup

Cannot receive Free Talkgroup if only have 1 or 2 Handsets (as that is seen as an attempt to bypass Standard Telephony costs)

  • 5 Handsets = 1 Free Talkgroup (5:1 ratio)
  • 10 Handsets = 1 Free Talkgroup (10:1 ratio)
  • 50 Handsets = 2 Free Talkgroups (25:1 ratio)
  • 500 Handsets = 5 Free Talkgroups (100:1 ratio)
