Description
TYT IP688 – Professional 4G Push-to-Talk Communication
The TYT IP688 combines the familiar operation of a professional two-way radio with the wide-area connectivity of cellular networks.
Unlike conventional VHF or UHF radios that depend on local radio coverage or repeaters, the IP688 uses cellular data networks to provide Push-to-Talk communication. This makes it particularly suitable for organizations requiring communication between teams operating across different locations.
The radio supports group calls, private calls and nested-group communication, making it suitable for fleet operations, security teams, logistics, construction, hospitality and other distributed workforces
TYT IP688 4G PoC Communication
The IP688 operates over 2G, 3G and 4G cellular networks, providing wide-area Push-to-Talk communication without the need for a dedicated VHF/UHF repeater infrastructure.
Wide-Area Push-to-Talk
Because communication is carried over the cellular network, users can communicate across cities, regions or countries, subject to cellular network availability and the PoC platform being used.
Dual SIM
The IP688 supports dual SIM cards, providing additional flexibility for network connectivity and deployment.
High-Output Audio
The built-in speaker provides up to 2W audio output, helping maintain clear communications in demanding working environments.
Compact Professional Design
At approximately 123g including the battery, the IP688 is designed to remain lightweight and practical for extended daily use.

Does it work anywhere?
Communication depends on cellular network coverage and the availability of the configured PoC service. It should therefore be marketed as wide-area communication, rather than “unlimited range.”
Does the IP688 use VHF or UHF?
No. The IP688 is a cellular PoC radio, rather than a conventional VHF/UHF two-way radio.
Does the TYT IP688 support 4G?
Yes. The IP688 supports 2G/3G/4G cellular connectivity.
