In high-pressure environments like event venues, hospitals, retail centres, and industrial sites, clear communication is critical. Two-way radios remain the gold standard for security teams due to their reliability, instant connectivity, and ability to function without mobile networks. Choosing the right two-way radio for your security team in 2025 depends on your operational environment, team size, and compliance needs. Whether you're overseeing a hospital, securing a construction site, or managing public events, investing in high-quality radios with the right feature set ensures better coordination, faster response times, and safer outcomes. Why Two-Way Radios Are Still Essential for Security Teams Unlike smartphones, two-way radios (also known as walkie-talkies) offer instant push-to-talk communication, long battery life, and the ability to operate in areas with poor or no mobile coverage. For teams that need real-time coordination, such as security personnel in hospitals or at large events, they offer a level of dependability and speed that other devices can't match. Key Features to Look for in a Two-Way Radio for Security UseChoose radios that are robust and drop resistant. Noise-cancelling microphones and loudspeakers are essential for loud or outdoor environments. Consider UHF for indoor environments or dense urban areas, and VHF for more open settings. Look for models offering 12–24 hours of usage on a single charge. Digital radios with secure communication channels help prevent eavesdropping. Support for earpieces, speaker mics, and belt clips improves usability and discretion. • Type: Digital UHF/VHF• Range: Up to 5–10 km depending on environment• Battery Life: Up to... --- - Published: 2025-05-12 - Modified: 2025-07-02 - URL: https://criticogroup.com/uhf-vs-vhf-two-way-radios/ UHF or VHF Two-Way Radios: Which is Right for You? When choosing a two-way radio, one of the most important factors to consider is the frequency type. When choosing a two-way radio, one of the most important factors to consider is the frequency type—Ultra High Frequency (UHF) or Very High Frequency (VHF). Both offer unique advantages depending on the environment and intended use. In this guide, we explore the key differences between UHF and VHF radios to help you make an informed decision. What Are UHF and VHF Radios? UHF and VHF refer to the radio frequencies used for communication. The frequency is measured in Megahertz (MHz), and each type operates within a specific range: UHF (Ultra High Frequency): 300 MHz – 3,000 MHz, with two-way radios typically operating between 450 – 512 MHz. VHF (Very High Frequency): 30 MHz – 300 MHz, with radios commonly using the 136 – 174 MHz range. Each frequency range affects how well the radios perform in different environments, so selecting the right type is crucial. Key Differences Between UHF and VHF RadiosPortable radios are widely used for business, outdoor activities, and security purposes. Choosing between UHF and VHF radios will significantly impact performance, especially when considering range, interference, and environmental conditions. ge affects how well the radios perform in different environments, so selecting the right type is crucial. VHF Radios: Ideal for Open Spaces VHF signals travel longer distances with less power, making them well-suited for outdoor and rural environments. However, they are less effective in areas with obstacles such as buildings and dense urban infrastructure.

In the evolving landscape of communication technology, the choice between analogue two-way radios and digital radios is pivotal for businesses and organisations. Understanding the distinctions between these technologies is essential for making informed decisions. For organisations evaluating their communication needs, the decision between analogue and digital two-way radios hinges on specific operational requirements. While analogue radios offer simplicity and cost-effectiveness, digital radios provide superior audio quality, extended features, and better performance over longer ranges. Assessing the unique demands of your operations will guide you to the most suitable choice for your communication infrastructure. Discover Critico’s industry-leading two-way radio solutions, engineered for clear and reliable communication in any environment. Cost ConsiderationsAnalogue radios generally have a lower initial purchase price, making them appealing for organisations with budget constraints. However, the long-term benefits of digital radios—including improved audio quality, extended battery life, and advanced features—can offset the higher upfront investment. Businesses should weigh immediate costs against potential long-term gains in efficiency and functionality. Audio Quality and Signal ClarityAnalogue radios transmit voice as continuous waves, which can result in background noise and signal degradation, especially as distance increases. In contrast, digital two-way radios convert voice into binary data, providing consistent audio clarity throughout the coverage area. This digital processing reduces background noise, ensuring clearer communication even at the fringes of receptionCoverage and RangeWhile both analogue and digital radios can cover similar distances, digital radios maintain audio quality better over extended ranges. Digital technology incorporates error correction, which mitigates signal issues, resulting in clearer audio... --- - Published: 2025-02-05 - Modified: 2025-07-02 - URL: https://criticogroup.com/get-a-quote-today/ Book a Demo or Request a Quote The MOTOTRBO™ R2 — a robust and reliable two-way radio designed to keep construction teams connected, safe, and productive on even the toughest sites.

Premium levels of service may be provided upon request, but could be subject to additional charge. Paging (including 2-way) Critico operates Grade of Service (GOS) protection mechanisms for computer generated paging message traffic. The standard GOS limits are:- 20 paging messages per pager address per hour, excluding Smart Groups (see 6. 1 below). 10 paging messages per TAP connection session. 10 paging messages per computer connection in 15 minutes. The above standard GOS limits are subject to an overriding limit of 25 times the volume of pagers in service per customer in each month. (e. g. 25 pagers x 25 messages = 625 paging messages per month per customer). The GPRS data allowance included with the standard Responder 2-way pager service is 2Mb per month per pager, with an allowance of up to 20 SMS messages per month per pager also included for use when the GPRS service is unavailable. Paging Bureau The number of calls to the paging bureau shall not exceed 15 times the number of pagers in service per customer in any month (e. g. 15 pagers x 15 calls = 300 bureau calls per month per customer). Use of the paging bureau is restricted to sending of paging messages only (which include Smart Groups) and shall NOT to be used for out of hours reception, secretarial or similar uses.

A standard message is defined as using characters from the default UK alphabet that are in 7-bit format (see table 3, below). It is possible to select, from a qwerty keyboard, information characters outside of this standard character set. These additional characters can be either Extended Characters or International Characters.   Extended Characters There are 9 Extended Characters available from the standard UK keyboard (see table 4, below). Each Extended Character requires 8 bits and therefore takes up two 7-bit characters. If an SMS message is formed from standard 7-bit characters but one Extended character is used then the maximum character size of the SMS message is reduced by 1 to 159 characters, and so on, for each additional Extended character. These ‘reduced in size’ messages are still charged at the same 160 character message price as the total bits transmitted remain the same. When sending SMS from a Connect or Flare web-account the Compose page will show a warning message if an Extended Character is used. In this case, the page will display the total characters in the message, which includes any additional characters used to support the Extended Characters.   International Characters An International Character requires 16 bits to be transmitted. If a single International Character is used the entire message has to be encoded in a 16-bit format which reduces the size of the SMS... --- - Published: 2024-03-08 - Modified: 2025-06-05 - URL: https://criticogroup.com/connect-copy/ Multi-channel messaging you control.

Under Martyn’s Law, institutions will be expected to demonstrate clear plans and procedures to protect students, staff, and visitors in the event of a security threat. At the heart of this is the ability to communicate quickly, reliably, and effectively. Sean Lewis, Critico's dedicated Janet txt Sales Executive, had this to say: “Whether it’s a lockdown scenario, evacuation, or safeguarding alert, speed and clarity in communication are critical. Janet txt gives education providers a simple and resilient tool to send alerts, manage contacts, and support post-incident reporting - all within one trusted platform. The best part?

However, selecting the right device requires careful consideration. From video quality and battery life to compliance and mounting options, this guide outlines five essential features to evaluate before making a decision. Choosing the Right Body-Worn Camera: 5 Key Features to Evaluate Body-worn cameras are becoming an essential tool for safety, accountability, and incident documentation across a range of sectors from healthcare and security to frontline services. However, not all body-worn cameras are the same. To make an informed choice, it’s important to assess devices against a few critical criteria. Here are five key considerations. 1. Video and Audio Quality High-definition video and clear audio are vital for capturing incidents accurately. Consider whether the device supports HD or higher resolution to ensure footage is admissible as evidence or effective for post-incident review. Quality audio is equally important, particularly in environments where verbal communication needs to be recorded for context. 2. Battery Life Body-worn cameras must last the duration of a typical shift without requiring a recharge. Look at the average runtime and whether the battery can withstand extended or demanding usage. Downtime for charging can compromise coverage, so battery efficiency is a major factor in operational reliability. 3. Storage Options Evaluate the onboard storage capacity and how the camera integrates with your existing systems. Can footage be uploaded to a secure cloud? Is there compatibility with local storage? Consider data transfer speeds, encryption, and how quickly and securely footage can be retrieved when needed. 4. Regulatory Compliance With increasing scrutiny around data protection and privacy, ensure that any solution aligns with local and industry-specific regulations, such as GDPR. Features such as secure encryption, audit trails, and user access controls are essential for... --- - Published: 2025-06-12 - Modified: 2025-06-27 - URL: https://criticogroup.com/critico-one-year-on/ - Categories: Newswire One Year of Critico: Reflecting, Connecting, Growing Just over twelve months ago, we launched Critico - the fusion of two trusted names in critical communications, PageOne and BP Multipage - with a bold vision: to deliver Communication Without Compromise. Since then, we’ve been on an incredible journey. One that’s taken us across the UK, Ireland and beyond, into hospitals, control rooms, conference halls and client meetings. We’ve spent the last year listening, learning, delivering, and above all - connecting. You’ve probably seen some of us out at industry events, exhibitions, and client meetings.

Explore how instant, reliable, and secure communication keeps teams connected in critical environments. The Enduring Value of Two-Way Radios in a Smartphone-Dominated World Why Two-Way Radios Still Matter in a Mobile-First World We are in a time where smartphones dominate personal and business communication, but two-way radios continue to provide irreplaceable value, especially for organisations where real-time coordination and operational safety are critical. With unmatched reliability, instant group communication, and features designed for demanding environments, two-way radios remain a vital part of the communications mix. Instant Communication with Push-to-Talk One of the key strengths of two-way radios is push-to-talk (PTT) capability, enabling users to transmit messages instantly to individuals or entire groups. There’s no need to dial, wait for a connection, or rely on mobile signal strength; communications are immediate and highly efficient, which is essential in fast-paced environments. Reliable Performance Without Mobile Networks Unlike mobile phones, two-way radios do not depend on cellular networks. This independence ensures consistent communication even in areas with weak or no signal, including basements, remote sites, or during network outages. Radios can function device-to-device or through a private repeater system, giving organisations full control over their communication infrastructure. Built for Tough Working Conditions From noisy factory floors to fast-moving outdoor operations or potentially explosive atmospheres, two-way radios are engineered for durability. Many two-way radio models offer rugged exteriors, noise-cancelling microphones, long battery life, high IP-rated and ATEX-rated options. These features ensure clear communication and long-lasting performance in environments where smartphones fall short. Safety Features that Go Beyond the Smartphone Safety is a key priority in many industries.... --- - Published: 2025-04-17 - Modified: 2025-06-19 - URL: https://criticogroup.com/improving-safeguarding-in-education-with-two-way-radios/ - Categories: Newswire By integrating two-way radios into their safeguarding strategy, educational institutions can improve safety, response times, and operational efficiency—ensuring a more secure and connected learning environment. Reliable Communication Where It Matters Most: Inside Today’s Schools and Campuses In today’s educational environment, safeguarding students and staff is a top priority. Two-way radios offer a reliable and efficient communication solution that enhances safety and operational coordination across schools, colleges, and educational facilities. Unlike mobile phones, two-way radios provide instant, push-to-talk communication with no call set-up time. This immediacy is crucial during emergencies, where a rapid response can significantly improve safeguarding outcomes. Radios also function reliably in areas with limited mobile coverage, such as basements, sports fields, or older buildings with thick walls. Safeguarding benefits include alerting key personnel instantly in case of incidents, enabling faster response times to medical emergencies, security threats, or behavioural concerns. Radios allow designated safeguarding leads, site managers, receptionists, and teachers to remain connected in real time, creating a more secure environment for students. Beyond safety, two-way radios such as the Kenwood NX-1000 Series support smoother day-to-day operations. They enhance communication during fire drills, coordinate staff during large events, and ensure maintenance and cleaning teams can be quickly reached. Radios are also cost-effective, with no monthly call charges and long battery life, making them ideal for all-day use. By integrating two-way radios into their safeguarding strategy, educational institutions can improve safety, response times, and operational efficiency, ensuring a more secure and connected learning environment.

Body-worn cameras have gained traction as a proactive security measure in retail settings. Combatting Retail Crime with Body-Worn Cameras: A Proactive Approach to Safer Stores Retail crime is an escalating issue that affects businesses worldwide, leading to financial losses, safety concerns, and operational disruptions. From shoplifting and employee theft to violent incidents and organised retail crime (ORC), retailers are facing increasing challenges in protecting their assets and ensuring the safety of employees and customers. In response to these growing threats, businesses are turning to advanced security solutions, with body-worn cameras (bodycams) emerging as a key tool in crime prevention and deterrence. The Rising Threat of Retail Crime Retail crime has evolved beyond traditional shoplifting, with sophisticated criminal networks targeting stores through coordinated theft, fraud, and even violent attacks. According to industry reports, retailers suffer billions in losses annually due to theft-related incidents. The impact extends beyond financial losses, affecting employee morale, customer confidence, and overall business operations. Key factors contributing to the rise in retail crime include: Organised Retail Crime (ORC): Criminal groups systematically steal large quantities of goods to resell through illegal markets. Repeat Offenders: Many retailers face ongoing threats from repeat shoplifters who exploit lenient penalties and store vulnerabilities. Increased Violence: Retail workers are experiencing a rise in verbal and physical assaults, leading to a greater need for protective measures. Inadequate Deterrence: Traditional security measures like CCTV and security personnel are sometimes insufficient in deterring criminal activity.

Paging is one of the most resilient and cost-effective ways to communicate with numerous people simultaneously and pagers play a vital role in keeping staff and mobile workers informed in organisations throughout the UK. Critico's national paging network covers nearly all of the UK’s population, sending messages to pager alert numbers anywhere within this radio coverage area. What kind of paging systems are there? There are two distinct categories of paging systems in operation. On-site paging systems are used in buildings/small sites and Public Wide Area paging which provides coverage across the UK using multiple transmitters. With Critico's latest 2-way pagers you can see real-time message delivery status, read receipts and message replies - as well as staff status updates and GPS location information. Our enhanced 2-way pagers also offer multi-network resilience. Is paging suitable for critical alerting? Yes. Critico uses its own private paging network to send paging messages across the UK. This means that in times of public crisis the network is protected from public access overload - common on mobile networks. This level of resilience makes our paging network ideal for communications during emergencies, therefore forming an essential part of Incident Management or Business Continuity plans. How reliable is paging? Critico's paging network broadcasts messages in real-time, ideal for sending large amounts of information or to large groups of people at the same time. This means messages are delivered consistently, even in peak... --- - Published: 2024-12-20 - Modified: 2025-06-27 - URL: https://criticogroup.com/seasons-greetings/ - Categories: Newswire Reflecting on 2024: A Year of Transformation and New Beginnings at Critico As we wrap up this transformative year, we’d like to take a moment to reflect on the incredible journey we’ve been on together. 2024 marked an exciting new chapter for us as BP Multipage and PageOne became one to form Critico.
