In this product showcase from CCW 2026, Hytera Europe’s Eoin Foy walks PolicingTV through a portfolio built around one of the biggest shifts facing public safety communications: the move from TETRA to mission-critical LTE. The video highlights Hytera’s view that policing is entering a new generation of communications, where voice, video, body-worn capture, command and control, and digital evidence all need to work together securely and in real time.

The presentation covers handheld and vehicle devices, body camera integration, deployable systems, integrated command and control, and the growing role of AI in managing the data these systems create. A major theme is that the technology is already here, but the real challenge now is policy, trust and operational adoption. It is a clear snapshot of how one major supplier sees the future of policing communications taking shape.

Key takeaways

• Hytera says the biggest transition in public safety comms is the move from TETRA to mission-critical LTE.
• A major theme is that policing now needs more than voice, with video and data becoming central too.
• The PNC 660 is presented as a 5G MCX device designed for this next stage of public safety communication.
• Hytera stresses that once voice and video are captured, forces also need secure storage, AI processing and evidence management.
• The W60 is pitched as a bridge device, combining body camera, speaker microphone and LTE capability while linking to existing TETRA radios.
• Emergency deployable systems are a key part of the offer, giving forces rapid communications capability without infrastructure.
• Hytera says integrated command and control, digital evidence management and AI-assisted dispatch are already available now.
• The overall message is that future policing depends not just on products, but on policy, adoption and close dialogue with users.
