BK Technologies to introduce InteropONE tethering feature

BK Technologies has developed a new feature for tethering its InteropONE service that enables push-to-talk-over-broadband capabilities for users of the Company’s BKR 5000 and BKR 9000 radios. The new tethering feature will augment the BKR 5000 and BKR 9000 with patent pending technology that enables users to connect BKR radios with Apple or Android smartphones. With this enhancement, InteropONE push-to-talk calls can be originated or received on the BKR radio using a smartphone’s cellular or WiFi connection. The tethering service harnesses evolving smartphone broadband technology advancements without adding design complexity or cost to BKR radios.
