What is PeakPTT?
PeakPTT is a push-to-talk company in Valencia, California that sells its own LTE radios together with the service they run on. It has operated since 2018, describes itself as a PoC manufacturer and provider, and sells to business and government customers only. Radios arrive pre-programmed with the customer's talk groups.12
The radios work only with PeakPTT's own service, which comes in three software platforms: K2, the flagship, PeakLink for simple audio-first use, and Everest for public safety and lone-worker alerting.1 Phones can join the same talk groups through an app. Plans, dispatch and the apps are covered on the PeakPTT software page; this page is about the radios.

Which US carriers do PeakPTT radios use?
PeakPTT radios use native SIMs on major US carrier networks, and PeakPTT's FAQ names AT&T and T-Mobile. The PTT-84G is AT&T carrier certified, the PTT-324G lists AT&T, T-Mobile and US Cellular certification, and the PTT-624G is US Cellular carrier certified. Customers do not bring their own SIM cards.2568
| Radio | Carrier certification | Industry certification |
|---|---|---|
| PTT-84G | AT&T | FCC; PTCRB network IoT certified5 |
| PTT-324G | AT&T, T-Mobile, US Cellular | FCC, PTCRB6 |
| PTT-624G | US Cellular | —8 |
- Wi-Fi fallback. Radios with Wi-Fi keep talking over any Wi-Fi network when cellular coverage drops; PeakPTT names Starlink Wi-Fi for the PTT-324G.26
- Start-up. Radios take about 30 seconds to connect at power-on; PeakPTT states a typical push-to-talk delay under 300 ms on LTE.52
- No radio license. Because calls travel over the cellular network, PeakPTT says the PTT-84G needs no FCC license and no repeaters.4

A first-year budget for a team can be worked out in the cost calculator.
Do PeakPTT radios work outside the US?
PeakPTT builds its service for US coverage, and its FAQ says functionality abroad may be limited or unavailable. The three handhelds use North American LTE bands such as B2, B4, B12 and B17, while most European networks rely on bands 20, 3 and 8, so they are US radios.258
Check any radio against a European operator in the LTE band checker.
