Push-to-talk - General
What is Enhanced Push-to-talk (EPTT)?
•
Enhanced Push-to-talk (EPTT) is a special
feature on a mobile phone that combines the
functionality of a walkie-talkie or 2-way radio
with the normal handset features. It provides
simple communication to a group of people
with just a touch of a button.
•
It allows the customer to instantly reach other
EPTT contacts by eliminating the dialing and
ringing steps in a regular cellular call. EPTT
calls can be made to one person or to a group
of people.
•
It is also referred to as
Push to Talk over
Cellular (PoC )
.
How does EPTT work?
•
EPTT is based on half-duplex communication
(ability to speak over the same channel but not
at the same time). It uses Voice over internet
protocol (VoIP).
•
The person who talks, keeps the
EPTT
button
pressed, while others can only listen. Thereafter
the speaker releases the
EPTT
button, and the
next speaker presses the button and starts
talking.
•
An EPTT call will end when the caller ends the
call. However, other speakers of the group can
end their call session, any time.

10 digit mobile number. But this number should be
provisioned by the operator for EPTT to work.
