The capacity of a solution to supply communication methods to end users in situations where traditional systems are unable to meet the end user’s demands is known as mission-critical communication. It facilitates communication and supports operations that are fraught with danger to people and property. Crucial communication devices are used to educate people about a critical situation, such as in public locations. In addition, it is employed to promote public safety in disaster-prone locations. Oil and gas, coast guard, homeland security applications, transportation, and unmanned vehicles are a few other applications where mission-critical communication devices are used.
Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd., L3Harris Technologies, Inc, Motorola Solutions, Inc., Nokia Corporation, and Zenitel – Prominent Market Participants in Public Safety and Government Agencies Mission Critical Communication (MCX) Market
