Press to Talk

PoC stands for Press-to-Talk over Cellular. It is not technically a two-way radio technology but behaves very much like one. Press-to-Talk is the technique of using the cellular phone network to make calls that behave like standard two-way radios, with instant-access and group calls but with the advantage world coverage using the right network/ sims card.
