BACKGROUND
Christie’s, a large, global art business and a fine arts auction house have been a key client for us at Wall to Wall
Radio Communications Ltd for over 15 years now. We have had the pleasure of working with them to develop
their two-way radio communications systems at three of their galleries in London.
THE CHALLENGE
Christie’s approached us with the future vision of an effective, modernised, integrated communications system
which was intertwined and connected to other facilities on site and connect all London sites together. They had
the aim of future proofing and updating their current two-way radio communications security systems at their galleries
in Kings Street, Mayfair and South Kensington. They wanted to maximise security and efficiency with operations
as their premises contain high value items that need maximum protection. They had new site’s opening
and they wanted to find a way to connect the sites together so that radio users can transmit across all sites.
SOLUTION PROVIDED
We started by upgrading their current analogue two-way radio fleet from analogue to digital Hytera X1e and Hytera
X1p covert two-way radios across all three of their sites. We then connected their sites with an integrated IP
connection. On each of their two-way radios we programmed in mission critical applications; Lone worker, ManDown
and Panic Button.
SOLUTION BENEFITS
· Enhanced health and safety with mission critical application integration
· Multi-site connection allowing teams across all three sites to
communicate with each other.
· Increased communication security using high class digital covert
two-way radios
· Improved voice clarity – digital two-way radios are noise cancelling
therefore voice transmissions are clearer in noisy environments such as
during events and auctions
· Upgraded, future proof digital radios that have more capabilities and
enhance channel spectrum efficiently
