The QuickConnect feature removes delays caused by channel floor control checks, resulting in faster connection times between users. QuickConnect can reduce ready-to-send delay times to near-zero, the same as one-to-one transmissions. This is especially useful for mission-critical PTT environments where near-zero latency is critical, such as military, public safety, and law enforcement applications. 

Please note that QuickConnect is not enabled by default; it can, however, be enabled for any channel through Management Console.

Enablement

1. Sign in to the Management Console at [yournetworkname].zellowork.com and select Channels from the taskbar. 
   
   
   

2. Select the channel you'd like to enable QuickConnect for.
   
   
   

3. Click the gear icon located at the top-right corner of the Channel Details section. This will open your channel's advanced settings. 
   
4. Toggle ON QuickConnect. Then click Save. 
   

To Note

• Once QuickConnect is enabled, channel transmissions are sent as usual. However, since all QuickConnect messages are initiated instantly upon key up, this may result in conflicts if multiple users are transmitting at the same time. In those instances, the second user will receive an error message (after beginning to speak) that the message cannot be sent and to try again. 
  
  
• When used in high-traffic channels, there may be increased interruptions due to multiple users trying to transmit at the same time.
  
  
• QuickConnect does not improve your network's existing connection quality. If your network connection time is already fast, QuickConnect may not make any noticeable difference in latency. Conversely, QuickConnect will not improve any end-to-end delay caused by poor network latency.
