Group Calls, Talkgroups, and Hubs

A group call is similar to a Private call, but is made to all members of a Talkgroup at once. A Talkgroup is a predetermined group of your service provider’s customers.

A Hub consists of 1 to 4 Talkgroups. You can make and receive calls on one of these Talkgroups, called the primary Talkgroup. You can set your phone to receive calls, but not make calls, to the other Talkgroups.

You must join a Talkgroup to make or receive calls on that Talkgroup. On your i325 phone, you join a Talkgroup by joining the Hub it belongs to.

On your i325 phone, all group calls you make are Hub calls. Group calls you receive are Hub calls or Talkgroup calls to Talkgroups in the Hub you have joined.

Your sales representative or your service provider establishes Talkgroups and Hubs for you. You can choose a name for each when you create entries for them in Contacts.
