With 50 years of experience in radio, Tait now integrates broadband into critical comms solutions. Instantly broadband enable your existing LMR radio with the TAIT AXIOM Wearable.
Innovation in critical communications solutions advances every year, but some personnel would just prefer to use their existing radios. That’s understandable – they trust what they know. Organizations want to take advantage of the latest technologies, but users want a device in their hand that they know they can trust. The TAIT AXIOM Wearable provides broadband speed and capability to your narrowband radio.
Continue to use Trusted Tools
Career Linesmen have relied on their communications equipment through thick and thin. The average age of utility workers in the US is 47 years old, they are inclined to trust what they know, and learning complex new devices can introduce risk in emergency situations. Continue to leverage your existing equipment and networks, with familiar interfaces, while taking advantage of new Broadband networks with TAIT AXIOM Wearables.
Cost Saving 
Public Safety Agencies need to be transparent about spending public funding responsibly. In 2023, the Department of Justice (DOJ) will be able to utilize US$20.6 billion in discretionary funding for federal, state, and local law enforcement and crime prevention. Although this is a gigantic budget, the DOJ is inclined to spend this taxpayer funding appropriately. Existing radio hardware and networks have worked for decades, and will continue to work for years to come. Adding additional functionality to existing equipment, rather than purchasing entirely new systems is the fiscally responsible approach.
