Here is the new comparison chart of newly launched TACTILON AGNET 500 features and functionality with Walkie Takie, P25, Tetra applications available in market enabling users to have Wireless Walky-talky like Push-to-talk service on existing smartphone, Let’s check the comparison chart of Tactilon Agnet 500

Features & Functionality Walkie-TalkieP25TETRAAGNET 500
Communication ModeHalf- duplex channelHalf and Full Duplex communicationsHalf-duplex and full-duplex communicationsSimplex, Half and Full Duplex
CoverageRadios must be within range of its own base stations / repeaters or handsets and on the same channelRadios must be within range of its own base stations / repeaters or handsetsContinuous coverage within designed TETRA network just like GSMWord-wide Coverage existing mobile broadband & IP network
Operating FrequencyWorks on specific radio frequencies i.e. FRS, GMRS, Business Band 450-470 Mhz.Frequency Range: 136 MHz – 859 MHz Bandwidth: 12.5 kHzMultiple real- time data services (status, short data, Circuit mode data, packet mode data)NO frequency required. Being a TETRA-LTE hybrid application, its need any type of IP broadband connectivity viz. GSM, 2G, 3G,4G,5G, Wi- Fi, SATELLITE etc. to work
Frequency / Spectrum requirementCostly affair as we Need to buy Frequency / Spectrum requirement from competent authority like WPCCostly affair as we Need to buy Frequency / Spectrum requirement from competent authority like WPCCostly affair as we Need to buy Frequency / Spectrum requirement from competent authority like WPCNO frequency required. Being a TETRA-LTE hybrid APPLICATION, its need any type of IP broadband connectivity viz. GSM, 2G, 3G,4G,5G, Wi- Fi, SATELLITE etc. to work
InfrastructureNeed to design and deploy Specific Radio Access Network and Infrastructure required to provide coverageNeed to design and deploy Specific Radio Access Network and Infrastructure required to provide coverageNeed to design and deploy Specific Radio Access Network and Infrastructure required to provide coverageNO Specific Radio Access Network Required. It runs on existing mobile broadband and IP networks
Network DependencyYesYesYesNetwork Agnostic runs on any mobile BB & IP network
End user handheldYesYesYes (TETRA standard)NO. it’s a hand- held device agnostic application runs on existing Android & IOS smartphones.
device dependency   
Country / location dependentYesYesYes (needs permissions as per law of land and network availabilityNO. Location agnostic, works anywhere on the globe
InteroperabilityInterference may occur with other radios nearbyP25 may be used in “talk around” mode without any intervening equipment between two radiosInteroperable with other networks (TETRA, ISDN, IP, and GSM)Open source interface enables Interoperability with other networks (TETRA, ISDN, IP, Satellite and GSM etc.)
Convenience of useNot exactly as convenient as average pocket-sized smartphone due to battery and antenna sizeNot exactly as convenient as average pocket- sized smartphoneNot exactly as convenient as average pocket- sized smartphoneConvenient for users as Application is to be installed on existing Smart- phones
SecuritySeparate investment in walkie-talkies with CTCSS (continuous tone-coded squelch system) or DCS (digital-coded squelch) encoding is needed for encryptionThe protocol supports the use of Data Encryption Standard (DES) encryption (56 bit), 2-key Triple-DES encryption, three-key Triple-DES encryption, Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) encryptionHigh Quality and High Security in communications. Double spectral efficiencyUp to 256 bit- SSL end-to-end encryption plus T-SIM for ultimate security required by military and other security forces
Call setupFast call setup,Voice calls to groups, Unit-to-Unit or individual calling, Emergency calls Talking party identification,Fast call set-up, group calls, and direct mode communication (talk-around)Fast call set-up, group calls, and direct mode communication (talk-around), SoS, Emergency Call, Priority Call, Floor Control, Network prioritizing through Core GSM network
Group CallFixedFixedDynamicDynamic & faster
Data CommunicationData not supportedWorks on FDMA and TDMA Limited data support (only text)Higher data bandwidths (up to 28.8 kbps). Works on TDMASupports higher bandwidth applications such as video, data, and footage, enhanced security
MultimediaNot SupportedNot SupportedLimitedSupports Higher bandwidth applications like Video streaming, Video Call, image sharing, file sharing and collaboration
TCO (Total Cost of Ownership)HighVery HighVery HighVERY LESS as it uses existing mobile BB & IP network. Needs only backend server and application is installed on existing smartphones
Hybrid HandsetsNONOYes (only Airbus)Yes
3GPP CompliantNONOYes (only Airbus)Yes
TETRA CompliantNONOYesYes
ETSI ComplaintNONOYes (only Airbus)Yes
