Bittium will exhibit Bittium Tough Mobile LTE smartphone and other products and solutions for critical communications at the Critical Communications World event in Berlin. The newest product to be showcased is the Bittium Tough Mobile HybridX extension that combines Bittium Tough Mobile smartphone with the functional HybridX accessory. The HybridX accessory is integrated to the Bittium Tough Mobile smartphone and the set is connected to a PMR (Professional Mobile Radio) device, such as TETRA or P25.

The extension eases the transition of authorities and security operators, such as police and fire and rescue service, from TETRA or P25 network based voice and messaging solutions to solutions that provide broadband connection.

In addition, Bittium will showcase Bittium SafeMove Analytics, which is a monitoring and reporting tool for collecting information on the network performance of the devices used on the field and thus enhance the efficiency of authorities.

Also showcased will be the Bittium Secure Suite back-end system that enables efficient use of Bittium Tough Mobile’s information security features, reliable remote device management, and securing the network connections used by the device.

Bittium’s products and solutions have also been shortlisted for International Critical Communications Awards, and the award ceremony will be held in conjunction with the Critical Communications World event.

Bittium Tough Mobile and related Bittium Secure Suite back-end system, the first smartphone based solution in the world to have received official Confidential level encryption product classification, has been shortlisted for the “Best Innovation” award, and the Bittium Tough Mobile HybridX extension has been shortlisted for the “Best Evolution to Future Broadband” award.
