Caltta Technologies, a leading provider of critical communication solutions, continues to foster strategic collaborations with industry partners to deliver enhanced value to global customers. Recently, Caltta has successfully implemented its state-of-the-art digital radio systems at Salisbury Cathedral, a historical landmark built between 1220 and 1256, boasting Britain’s tallest cathedral tower and attracting over 600,000 visitors annually.

 

Salisbury Cathedral's management team, including caretakers, tour guides, security, construction workers, and administrative staff, relies on seamless communication to ensure the smooth operation of this World Heritage Site. The Vestry team, previously using an analogue radio system, sought to upgrade to digital communications for improved efficiency and reliability.

 

Rob Douglas, Floor Manager at Salisbury Cathedral, required a dependable two-way radio network covering all internal and external areas of the site. The system needed to be simple for users and capable of facilitating emergency communications during procedures such as evacuations. Additionally, the busy tour guides, who lead visitors up the narrow winding staircase to the top of the tower, needed clear communication to ensure safety during the 332-step journey.

 

Caltta’s digital radios were chosen for their robust features, including excellent battery life, clear digital audio, IP68 rating, and cost-effectiveness compared to competitors. Crucially, the radios incorporate essential safety functions like the ‘Panic Button’ and ‘Man Down’ features. The Panic feature allows discreet alerts in sensitive situations, while the Man Down feature ensures that staff can quickly respond to accidents. The radios also support private dialing and ‘Radio Silence’ modes, essential during the cathedral's busiest services.

 

Furthermore, Caltta’s radios come with GPS as standard, offering a future upgrade path to Dispatcher software if required. These advanced features make Caltta's digital radios an ideal choice for enhancing communication at Salisbury Cathedral.

 

Caltta Technologies has a proven track record of implementing digital radio systems in large campuses, introducing cutting-edge products to enhance functionalities and boost user efficiency across various industries. As Caltta continues to expand its user base, the company remains committed to providing comprehensive after-sales service and technical support, actively exploring opportunities to upgrade existing solutions to adapt to evolving application scenarios.
