Communication Services

Get help fast and work together easily.

Blackline is trusted for reliable gas detection and lone worker monitoring—and now we’re redefining what a safety wearable can do with built-in communication.

With G8, workers can talk, message and get help—all in one intrinsically safe device

With G8, workers can talk, message and get help—all in one intrinsically safe device. No extra radios. No extra phones. Just one tool that keeps your team connected, protected and focused on getting the job done.

By layering in one or all communication services, teams can collaborate or call for help instantly—without compromising safety or productivity, without juggling multiple devices, and without the cost and maintenance of extra hardware.

3 WAYS TO CONNECT

Emergency Voice

When a G8 sends an alert, it instantly opens a live, hands-free voice call—so a real person can check in and dispatch help within seconds.

Because in an emergency, nothing beats hearing a human voice—whether it’s someone from your own control room or Blackline’s 24/7 live monitoring service.

When a G8 sends an alert, it instantly opens a live, hands-free voice call—so a real person can check in and dispatch help within seconds.

24/7 live monitoring is available through your own safety control center, Blackline’s in-house Safety Operations Center (SOC), or our global Alarm Receiving Center (ARC) partners.

Blackline’s Five-Diamond Certified SOC agents can quickly escalate responses and dispatch local emergency services to a worker’s exact location. From the moment an alert comes in to the moment it’s resolved, every step follows your custom emergency response protocol.

Push-to-Talk (PTT)

PTT (with optional Remote Speaker Mic) rivals any industrial radio, with clear audio and dedicated buttons for quick task coordination across teams and sites.

With a single push of the button, workers can instantly talk to teammates on the same channel or switch channels easily to connect across departments, with up to 100 available options.

Supervisors, managers, and live monitoring teams can use the all-call channel to broadcast messages to every device in the network to reach every connected worker instantly. 

And unlike traditional radios, PTT has no range limits, keeping teams connected across sites, regions, and even countries.

Text Messaging

For fast, wide-reaching communication—like during evacuations, severe weather, or other critical events—nothing gets the word out faster than mass notification messages.

Integrating messaging capabilities into your wearables means safety managers can instantly broadcast updates or instructions to every connected device in the field.

Workers receive messages in real time—no matter where they are—ensuring everyone knows what to do and stays safe. And they can also send custom or pre-set messages to monitoring personnel when help is needed.
