Mission Critical Communications

When Every Millisecond Counts

3GPP Mission Critical Services — MCPTT, MCVideo, MCData — deliver guaranteed QoS for public safety, emergency response, and critical infrastructure communications on a single 5G network.

🚨
MCX / Mission Critical Communications
MCPTT push-to-talk with <150ms floor arbitration, MCVideo, and MCData over 5G. Replace TETRA while gaining 1Gbps data capability and end-to-end AES-256 encryption.

FlexRAN + Xeon-D

Software-defined DU for Open RAN — replaces proprietary ASIC with upgradeable x86 software at the base station

Xeon Scalable (MEC)

4th Gen Xeon with AMX matrix extensions for edge AI inference. Runs O-CU, UPF, and ML workloads on the same server

OpenVINO Runtime

Hardware-aware AI inference toolkit. INT8 quantisation delivers 4x throughput on Xeon vs FP32 GPU baseline

Gaudi 2 AI Accelerator

40% cost reduction vs comparable GPU for AI model training. HCT uses Gaudi to fine-tune detection models on UAE-specific datasets

Smart Edge Open

Kubernetes-based MEC orchestration (formerly OpenNESS). Manages CNF/VNF lifecycle, multi-access traffic steering, GPU resource allocation

SGX Trusted Execution

Hardware-isolated enclaves for sovereign AI model and key protection — prevents hypervisor-level access on shared edge infrastructure

Architecture Assessment

Which Technologies Power Your Use Case?

Every deployment is different. HCT architects run a structured technology assessment to map your operational requirements to the right combination of RAN, core, edge, and AI technologies — with reference designs from live UAE deployments.
