If you need a communication solution that breaks the boundaries of traditional radio range, the Telo TE580 Plus is built for you. By utilizing existing cellular networks and WiFi, this Push-to-Talk over Cellular (PoC) device gives your team instant, nationwide connectivity without the need for expensive repeater infrastructure.

How does the Telo TE580 Plus provide nationwide coverage?

Unlike standard two-way radios that rely on local radio frequencies, the TE580 Plus operates over 3G, 4G LTE, and WiFi networks. By inserting a multi-network roaming SIM card (which connects to major networks like O2, EE, Vodafone, and Three), you can transmit instantly from anywhere with a mobile phone signal.

Is this radio durable enough for outdoor or industrial work?

Absolutely. The TE580 Plus is designed with rugged durability in mind. It boasts an IP67 rating, meaning it is completely dust-tight and can withstand water immersion up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. Additionally, the WVGA touch screen is protected by tough Gorilla Glass, making it highly resistant to scratches and impacts in demanding environments.

What operating system and software features does it use?

The device runs on a fast and reliable Android 8.1 operating system. To maximize your connectivity, it requires a SMART User Licence, which unlocks powerful features such as group and individual calling, emergency calls, text and data exchange, and voice recording. It also includes comprehensive location services using GPS, GLONASS, and AGPS for real-time tracking and route history.

Can I expand the functionality of the TE580 Plus?

Yes, the SMART Licence allows for several bolt-on options depending on your operational needs. You can add features like Lone Worker Protection, Task Management, Indoor Localisation, and Push-To-Video capabilities. If you are outfitting a fleet and need a mobile vehicle unit to pair with your handhelds, the Telo M5 Mobile Radio is an excellent companion.
