Viking Connect

Viking Connect on the Kenwood Viking 8000 Series Radios offers first responders seamless interoperability between LMR and broadband networks. Viking Radios seamlessly transition between LMR and Broadband networks based on signal conditions, without user intervention. Radio administrators can configure the RF transition levels in the Armada Fleet Management software package. Radio users can manually prioritize Broadband or LMR in the Viking Radio menu. This innovative capability allows seamless push-to-talk connectivity across devices and networks—bridging the gap between field operations and command centers. Viking Connect supports secure broadband PTT communication across all ESChat infrastructure platforms, including ESChat for Government, our FedRAMP Authorized, GovRAMP Authorized, and TX-RAMP Certified environment.
