A two-way radio is an essential part of any workplace. It allows people to communicate with each other in real-time. There are two types: full-duplex and half-duplex. Full-duplex means that each radio can transmit and receive at the same time. Both types of two-way radios have many benefits, including their compact design and multi-channel functionality. Plus, they offer a decent battery life. Depending on the needs of the user, a full-duplex two-way system can last as long as 10 minutes.
The main benefit of a two-way system is the range. A standard two-way radio can cover a range of up to 100 miles, which is sufficient for most applications. A full-duplex system will cover an area of at least 50km square. A duplex system is much more expensive than a single-channel version, but it is worth the extra cost. If you’re traveling frequently, a higher transmission range can be useful.
A two-way radio can be recharged via USB or AA batteries. If you don’t have a laptop, you can opt for an external battery. To maximize battery life, lower the transmission range. Typically, a two-way radio can work for about 15 hours on a full charge. Be sure to check your local laws before you start using a two-way radio for your business. You may need to obtain a license from the FCC before using one.
