Motorola Digital Radios

When you need direct voice and data communication between your work crews in the field at multiple job sites upgrade your older analog radios to a digital two-way radio network. Motorola digital radios provide instant, reliable communications to specific groups or individuals with added intelligence. When bad things happen, nothing is faster than push-to-talk.

Motorola Solutions' MOTOTRBO is a complete end-to-end solution. MOTOTRBO's extensive portfolio means you can custom-build your construction firm's complete solution, including military spec radios, infrastructure, systems, accessories, applications and services designed around what you need today and in the future.

MOTOTRBO digital two-way radios unify your work crews with instant, always-available communications, anywhere they go. When emergencies arise, from an injured crew member to an equipment breakdown on a job site, two-way radios connect management and crews directly and instantly. Your workforce in the field is no longer subject to cellular overcrowding during inclement weather or an emergency. It's one of several key advantages of MOTOTRBO radios over cell phones.

MOTOTRBO integrates voice and data seamlessly, with enhanced features that are easy to use, including integrated Bluetooth® 4.0, integrated Wi-Fi®, GPS location tracking, text messaging, meets IP standards and military specifications for durability, as well as Intelligent Audio that automatically adjusts the volume to loud construction site environments.
