Motorola Announces Industry Leading Capabilities for MOTOTRBO™
Professional Digital Two-way Radio System
Transmit Interrupt Suite, 800/900 MHz Portables and Mobiles, New Base
Stations/Repeaters Help Users Achieve New Levels of Efficiency and
Worker Safety
March 10, 2010
LAS VEGAS – March 10, 2010 – The Enterprise Mobility Solutions
business of Motorola, Inc. (NYSE: MOT) today announced industry-first
enhancements for its innovative MOTOTRBO™ Professional Digital Two-way
Radio System at the International Wireless Communications Expo (IWCE)
(Motorola Booth: #7001).
Motorola continues to build upon MOTOTRBO with the launch of the
industry’s first Transmit Interrupt Suite as well as new 800/900 MHz
frequency band portable and mobile radios; a new 800 MHz frequency
band repeater; a 900 MHz frequency band repeater; and a new UHF
100-watt, high-power base station/repeater.
The new Transmit Interrupt Suite allows MOTOTRBO users to interrupt
conversations during an emergency or to deliver business-critical
communications exactly when and where it’s needed via the voice
interrupt, remote voice dekey and emergency voice interrupt features.
Transmit Interrupt is an ideal solution for public works agencies,
utilities, private security and manufacturing, to help them increase
employee safety and efficiency.
Another example of MOTOTRBO’s industry leading innovation is the
launch of 800/900 MHz capable radios. The XPR® 6580 display portable,
XPR 6380 non-display portable, XPR 4580 display mobile and XPR 4380
numeric display mobile radios are currently available with all the
great features of MOTOTRBO and operate in the 800 and 900 MHz
frequency bands.
New repeaters are also being added to the growing MOTOTRBO system
lineup, including the XPR 8380, an 800 MHz frequency band repeater.
This repeater provides continuous duty at 40W/UHF, 45W/VHF and 35W/800
MHz. It operates in analog and digital mode and supports two
simultaneous voice or data paths in Time-Division Multiple-Access
(TDMA) digital mode. A 900 MHz frequency band repeater is scheduled
to ship for MOTOTRBO systems later this year.
“Motorola is a company of firsts with a rich heritage of continuous
innovation,” said Paul Cizek, Motorola director of North America
Professional/Commercial Radios. “We are continuing this innovation
with the MOTOTRBO system by offering industry-first features for
professional digital radios with the Transmit Interrupt Suite and
800/900 MHz frequency band capabilities”.
The new UHF 100-watt MTR3000 base station/repeater delivers high-power
capability, which helps to improve coverage for users such as schools,
public works, and transportation companies operating across a wide
area or within large
building structures including hospitals, shopping malls or casinos.
The MTR3000 also features convenient access to station ports,
shortening installation and maintenance time. With 16-channel
capability, it operates in analog or digital mode and supports two
simultaneous voice or data paths in TDMA digital. An upgrade kit is
available for MTR2000 users, allowing them to migrate to the MTR3000
without a total repeater replacement.
Michael Saia, vice president of radio dealer Saia Communications, Inc.
in Buffalo, N.Y., said his customers are looking for the flexibility
of the high-power MTR3000 repeater which can operate in analog or
digital mode allowing them to migrate to digital at their own pace.
“We have many customers who need a high power repeater to meet the
communication needs of their business and the MOTOTRBO system with a
MTR3000 repeater is the ideal solution.” Saia said. “And with the
MTR2000 upgrade process; we are able to easily migrate existing users
to the advantages of digital technology at a significantly lower cost
than if they had to do a complete replacement of their existing
equipment.”
MOTOTRBO meets the 12.5 kHz capability requirement mandate for
narrowbanding, ensuring professional users compliance with FCC
regulations. With its TDMA digital technology, MOTOTRBO provides
additional benefits over alternate digital technologies including
lower infrastructure costs, longer battery life and advanced features.
“These benefits make TDMA the digital choice of the future for
professional two-way radio communications,” said Cizek. “Delivering
advanced features and more system capacity while being able to
leverage existing spectrum resources at a significant cost savings,
make it a clear choice over Frequency-Division Multiple-Access (FDMA)
digital solutions."
