The Dynamic Push-To-Talk
Solution that Performs
Dynamic Push-To-Talk
Solution that Performs.
To your subscribers,
its a service.
To your network,
its a solution.
To your business,
its a future.
The QChat solution is a
carrier-grade, 3G push-to-talk
service from Qualcomm. Users
communicate quickly and directly
over IP by using the PTT button
or touch screen on the handset
instead of making a standard
cellular call. That means network
efficiency for you, reliable
communication for busines
customers and ease of use
for consumers.
QChat is built on Voice over
Internet Protocol (VoIP), optimized
for CDMA and WCDMA networks.
QChat offers subscribers alwayson connections for one-on-one
conversations, chat rooms or
multiple-user group calls while
reducing both the load on your
network and latency in PTT
communications. Whats more, you
can expand the solution beyond
PTT into new, IP-based services as
your customers adopt them.
QChats VoIP technology lets you
take advantage of 3G infrastructure
to differentiate your service
offerings, expand your addressable
market and increase your average
revenue per user (ARPU). QChat
can put you on an evolutionary path
beyond 3G, toward real-time voice/
media sharing and integration with
social networks to help ensure the
continued loyalty of subscribers
who build calling circles around
their employees, co-workers,
family and friends.

Goodbye to Dialing Numbers.
Hello to New Customers.
Push-to-talk helps
wireless operators achieve:
High ARPU
Low Churn
Mobile subscribers who use PTT as a core service do so in order to increase
the efficiency of communication due to the nature of their business and
lifestyle. Customers have reported that as subscribers build up a community
of other PTT contacts, they tend to stay with their operator longer and be
less subject to churn. PTT helps convert medium-value subscribers into
high-value subscribers, and high-value subscribers into loyal subscribers.
For business customers who cant afford the
time it takes to set up a call or leave voice-mail.
PTT connects co-workers spread across varied geographical areas. Field
service technicians, security personnel, first responders, construction
workers, public safety officers, drivers and dispatchers all require urgent
and fast communication with individuals and groups.
Smart businesses use PTT as a competitive advantage for increased
workforce efficiency. It can locate co-workers and distribute answers without
the delays of dialing numbers, leaving voice-mail, waiting for returned calls
and playing phone-tag. Just as computer users rely on instant messaging
tools to improve productivity, business customers can rely on PTT for quick
bursts of efficient communication.
Consumers want an instant connection
with an easy user experience.
PTT offers consumers rapid call setup and communication at the push of a
button. Whether one-on-one or in groups, that means constant, easy-to-use
connections to friends and family members.
