Challenge
In the fast-paced environment of event management, seamless, reliable communication is critical. CO Productions believes two-way radios are an indispensable tool to enhance event coordination by: ensuring teams are properly synchronized during live events; improving response times when addressing on-site challenges or emergencies; streamlining operations by keeping all staff connected across large venues; and generally ensuring a professional event execution to meet client expectations.
Solutions
Hytera recommended its S1 mini and S1 Pro two-way radios as excellent options for CO Productions because their features and capabilities are tailored for event management and entertainment industries. CO Productions took possession of two S1 mini and eight S1 Pro devices.
The Hytera S1 mini is extremely compact and lightweight, which makes it ultra-portable. It is easy for team members to carry and use throughout even a very long event. Its discreet size allows for unobtrusive communication, which is ideal for events where professionalism and subtlety are key.
The Hytera S1 Pro is sleek and light and provides the perfect balance between elegance and performance, making it an ideal device for the smart events and entertainment industry.
Both devices offer exceptionally clear audio even in noisy environments such as concerts or festivals where ambient sound levels are high. They also have a very long battery life of 16-18 hours for the S1 mini and 16-19 hours for S1 Pro, so both devices will easily last a long shift at an all-day or even multi-day event.
