Description
Hytera PNC360S Push-to-Talk Over Cellular (PoC) Radio
Nationwide coverage with Wi-Fi and 4G/LTE networks. Supports dispatching, group calling, and location tracking.
The Hytera PNC360S is part of the Hytera HALO Nationwide Group Communications Solution that enables Push-to-Talk over Cellular using Wi-Fi and the existing 4G/LTE infrastructure of Mobile Network Operators. Rather than relying on standard UHF/VHF radio repeaters, the PNC360S keeps your mobile workforce connected anywhere in the country. It is ultra-compact, rugged, easy to operate, and surprisingly feature-rich for the price.
The Hytera HALO Dispatch platform is the powerful interface for efficient group communications and real-time location tracking, enabling dispatchers to manage fleets, send messages, and monitor field personnel from a central console.
Because the PNC360S is a cellular device, it requires a Nano-SIM card with an active data plan and a subscription to a PoC routing platform (such as Hytera HALO or HORIZON) to function. PNC360S PoC radios and Hytera HALO Dispatch can be deployed very quickly to deliver enterprise-grade communications at a lower cost than traditional radio systems.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a PoC Radio?
PoC stands for "Push-to-Talk over Cellular." Unlike traditional two-way radios that rely on local radio waves, PoC radios use standard cellular data networks (like AT&T, T-Mobile, or Verizon) and Wi-Fi to transmit voice globally. The PNC360S is part of the Hytera HALO ecosystem, which pairs the radio with a powerful dispatch platform for fleet management and location tracking.
Do I need to pay for a subscription to use the Hytera PNC360S?
Yes. Because it operates on cellular networks, you must provide a Nano-SIM card with an active data plan. You will also need a subscription to a PoC platform (like Hytera HALO or HORIZON) to route your calls. Atlantic Radio offers the Hytera HORIZON PoC 2-Year Service Plan, which includes the SIM card and platform subscription needed to activate your PNC360S.
What is the HORIZON Dispatcher and do I need it?
The Hytera HORIZON Dispatcher is a software console that allows a central operator to manage your PoC radio fleet — including real-time GPS tracking, group and private calling, text messaging, and remote stun/revive of lost or stolen radios. It is required if you need dispatch console functionality. If your team only needs radio-to-radio PTT without a dispatch console, the HORIZON service plan alone may be sufficient. Contact Atlantic Radio to determine the right configuration for your deployment.
Is the Hytera PNC360S waterproof?
Yes. The PNC360S carries an IP67 rating, meaning it is entirely dustproof and can withstand being submerged in up to 1 meter of water for 30 minutes. It is also drop-proof to 1.2 meters and compliant with MIL-STD-810H for shock and vibration.
Warranty
Covered by a 2-year manufacturer’s warranty on the radio and a 1-year warranty on included accessories.
