Smart enhancements for two way radio networks
Applications
Modern two-way radio systems do more than just voice communication. With the right applications, you can unlock powerful features that improve safety, coordination, and performance across your organisation.
At OS Comms, we work with a range of trusted technology partners to integrate applications that enhance your radio network—whether you're in hospitality, education, events, or public services.
Here are three of the most popular platforms we work with:

Smart integration for hotels and hospitality
SMC Gateway
Used widely in the hotel and leisure sector, SMC Gateway brings together your radio system with other business systems - helping you automate tasks, improve guest service, and respond faster.
What it does:
- Links your two-way radios to phone systems, alarms, and building management systems
- Sends alerts directly to radios when fire alarms or intruder systems are triggered
- Allows reception or management to trigger messages, updates or calls with minimal delay
- Reduces the need to monitor multiple systems - everything feeds into one platform
Why it’s popular:
Hotels love it because it makes operations smoother and service quicker—without overcomplicating things for staff.

Safety and Environmental Monitoring for Schools
HALO Smart Sensor
HALO detection is a compact, intelligent sensor designed to keep school environments safe and secure. It integrates with two-way radios to alert staff when something needs immediate attention - without relying on CCTV or active monitoring.
What it does:

- Works discreetly - ideal for places like toilets or changing rooms where cameras are not appropriate

Schools value HALO for its discreet safeguarding features, helping staff stay ahead of potential problems and creating a safer space for students.
