Airbus partners with Selectric for Tactilon Agnet solution

Airbus Secure Land Communications, Germany, has partnered with Selectric Nachrichten-Systeme, offering a mobile communication solution for its customers with mission- and business- critical communication needs.

The Airbus Tactilon Agnet application platform runs on standard smartphones as well as ruggedised devices, to meet increased deployment requirements and guarantee secure communications including strong end-to-end encryption complemented by multimedia features. It offers a simple user interface that focuses on instant group communication for voice, messaging, data and video.

Via a push-to-talk (PTT) button, all configured group members are reached accordingly, enabling professional collaboration in a group. The messaging module allows for sending of image, text and video content to previously selected groups and also has a phone and videoconferencing feature. Among other possibilities, it also offers the integration of external webcams in public places; videos can be forwarded to the control room or team members at the operational site.
