Eventide and Softil launch MCX recording solution for public safety operations

Recording systems company Eventide joined with mission-critical communications (MCX) enabler Softil to claim a world’s first MCX recording and replay solution for use in public safety, government, air traffic control, utilities, oil and gas and security operations.

Eventide will harness Softil’s BEEHD technology, a 3GPP MCX release 16 standard-compliant cross-platform framework SDK, to develop the new MCX recording solution.

Recording is a critical element of public safety operations and allows public safety agencies to reconstruct a response to a disaster or crime, run deep analysis, learn from it and much more. As public safety is now embracing MCX/MCPTT public safety broadband networks, MCX recording is becoming essential for service delivery.

Eventide’s direct LTE-based mission-critical push-to-talk (MCPTT) recording solution will record all group and private audio calls, video and messages using 3GPP MCX standards-based interfaces. During incidents, first responder groups will have instant access to a vast amount of on-record incident information whatever the system being used, including what information was pushed to group members, when they shared files, video or data, and the location of every member of a group at any time.
