The Group Paging feature enables you to make pages—one-way audio
announcements—to users subscribed to a page group. The Push-to-Talk (PTT)
feature is a collaborative tool that enables you to exchange broadcasts to users
subscribed to a PTT channel, much like a walkie-talkie. Your system
administrator can set up both features on your phone.
