The Digital Difference
Lower licensing and equipment costs. MOTOTRBO Digital two-way radio solutions based on Time-Division Multiple-Access (TDMA) technology enable two virtual channels within a single 12.5 kHz licensed repeater channel. This provides twice the calling capacity for the price of one license. And because there’s only one “real” channel, a second call doesn’t require a second repeater.
Expanded digital voice, data, and control capabilities. Professional customers recognize that mobile workers can be more productive if they have wireless access to useful applications. MOTOTRBO radios offer application such as:
Text messaging services
GPS location services.
MOTOTRBO also simplifies the integration of third-party data applications with either a direct IP interface to the MOTOTRBO radio or an option board interface, standard USB connection and IP addressing.
Enhanced call signaling for faster and more reliable calls
Private and secure one-to-one calling
Private and secure one-to-many calling
Private and secure one-to-all calling
Emergency pre-emptive calling
Clearer voice communications over a greater range. When signal strength drops off with distance, MOTOTRBO error-correction technology can accurately deliver both voice and data with virtually no loss over a far greater area.
Enhanced battery life. Each individual transmission only uses half the battery power of an analogue system transmitting at the same wattage—so MOTOTRBO portable radios deliver far more uptime per battery charge. Saving up to 40% on battery life.
Static and noise rejection. Analogue signals become distorted, producing audible static as signal strength degrades. By contrast, MOTOTRBO radios simply reject anything they interpret as an error. In turn, this helps to enable users to hear better in noisy environments
Easy migration. Many businesses can't afford to completely replace all their old analogue radios and existing infrastructure. MOTOTRBO’s ability to operate in both analogue and digital modes enables a smooth, planned migration at the customer’s pace, no sticker shock, no disruption. (Digital features are not available when operating in analogue mode.)
Enhanced design. Smaller, lightweight and rugged system components, including submersible units (IP57 certified) to ensure maximum portability and reliability. Mil St810 certification and Accelerated Life Testing ensure durability. And, MOTOTRBO portable radios with FM batteries are also Factory Mutual (FM) approved for intrinsic safety.
Standards-based, future-facing platform. MOTOTRBO is built on the globally-recognised European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) Digital Mobile Radio (DMR) tier two standard for professional mobile radio. MOTOTRBO also meets existing United States regulatory requirements for 12.5 KHz efficiency, and its software-upgradeable platform simplifies the addition of features and functionality in the future. This open platform enables multi-vendor interoperability and protects the customer’s investment.
