Motorola Unveils New Mission Critical Communications Products at International Wireless Communications Expo (IWCE)
Products Target Public Safety, Small and Medium Businesses, Utilities, Fleet Managers, and Campuses
(I-Newswire) - Motorola, Inc. ( NYSE: MOT ), the leading provider of Mission Critical Communications solutions, unveiled four new products --- a new generation pager for volunteer firefighters, two new Professional Series Radios for small business, and a new dispatch solution --- this week at the International Wireless Communications Expo ( April 6-8 ) in Las Vegas.
One of the products, the MINITOR V™ pager, will allow volunteer firefighters to record a message of up to eight minutes, one of the longest recording times in the industry. This would enable the dispatch center to send a longer, more detailed message so firefighters would have more information about the emergency prior to arriving on scene.
“As the primary pager supplier for hundreds of community fire departments, we take our responsibility to provide the best performing, most reliable paging products very seriously,” said Grant Milner, director of Motorola Commercial System Products. “Where improvements can be made, we make them. When customers request options, we surpass expectations. The result is the MINITOR V, a new generation of pager, ideal for fire departments as well as businesses and other organizations that must react quickly in times of emergency.”
MINITOR V: New Generation of Pager for Volunteer Firefighters • Bandwidth Options - MINITOR pager now provides the option to program the pager on narrow or wide-band channels for both UHF and VHF. • Improved Sensitivity – receive calls consistently even in fringe or weak signal areas • Expanded Alert Tones -as many as 12 programmable tones, including new musical options, are available to communicate specific alerts. • Tremendous Stored Voice Capability - recording time increase to eight minutes, one of the longest in the industry. • Rugged Dependability - sturdy housing and solid, responsive knob action. The MINITOR V meets Military Standard Procedures 1 for driving rain.
New Professional Series™ Radios for Small-Medium Businesses For two-way radio users in small to medium-sized businesses and communities, the company announced its new PR860™ and PR1500™ two-way radios at this year’s IWCE.
“In the past few years, the bar has been raised in terms of security. The size of the community shouldn't dictate the level of preparedness and security their citizens should expect,” said Craig Chenicek, director of Motorola Radio Products. “The time is right for the introduction of the PR860 and PR1500 Professional Series two-way radios from Motorola. These radios offer an extremely high level of communication technology and product durability at a price that fits within the budgets of most smaller communities and businesses.”
