This necessity was chosen over secure communications, integrated voice and data applications, and other communication needs.

52% of U.S. manufacturing companies desire the capability for real-time messaging between machines and people.

The manufacturing industry is becoming more and more advanced with recent developments in automation technology and the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). What is the IIoT? This simple yet remarkable concept refers to the ability for machines to transmit important information to other machines, and it’s transforming traditional manufacturing practices.

Minimizing background noise during business critical communications is a necessity for many workplaces, including the construction and manufacturing fields. Workers in the field need to be able to clearly hear each other despite the nearby sounds of heavy machinery operating.
