As the nature of public safety work and technology become more
complex, there is a growing need for radios that provide both
mission-critical voice communications, as well as advanced
data-sharing capabilities. The Motorola Solutions (NYSE: MSI)
ruggedized series of APX® NEXT P25 two-way radios bring critical
information to field response and simplify operation with enhanced
interfaces.

APX NEXT includes next-generation
features, such as built-in LTE broadband for access to applications
that allow users to see surrounding public safety personnel on a
map, send multimedia messages, route GPS coordinates to dispatchers
and other responders and update their
radios in the field. It also includes ViQi™, an application
that allows responders to operate their radios via voice control so
they can remain focused on tasks. Hundreds of government agencies
in North America are using the radios to improve public safety
communications, including in the cities of Orlando, Jacksonville,
Houston and Des Moines.
“We invested in APX NEXT because we want to provide our officers
the data they need to help keep our community safe in all manner of
situations,” said Major David Ness, Des Moines Police Department.
“The radio is incredibly easy to navigate, giving officers easy
access to vital information, so they arrive on scene better
prepared. Features like SmartLocate, which allows dispatchers to
track the locations of our officers in the field, have already paid
dividends by successfully locating officers in need and directly
assisting with suspect arrests.”
Additional radios in the APX NEXT series, APX NEXT XE and
APX NEXT XN, are purpose-built for
firefighters and merge glovable oversized controls with
applications that provide data to and from the field to maximize
performance and utility in extreme environments. APX NEXT XN is
designed to meet the most stringent fire industry standards for
heat, immersion, drop/impact performance and software safety, which
includes automated checks of battery capacity and accessory
connections.
Motorola Solutions today announced three new radios that extend
the versatility of the next-generation APX line to a greater number
of public safety agencies and users. The single-band APX N70, APX
N50 and APX N30 feature the same reliable, mission-critical P25
connectivity and rugged construction found in APX NEXT, but offer
smaller screens, slimmer profiles, simplified user interfaces and a
more targeted set of data applications. The new radios give public
safety agencies greater choice as they equip both first responders,
as well as those in emergency support, public works and municipal
roles.
“We're growing our public safety radio line to meet the needs of
our public safety customers, supporting all agency sizes, personnel
needs and budgets,” said Scott Mottonen, senior vice president of
Products, Motorola Solutions. “Agencies are able to choose the
right purpose-built radio for the right user, from first responders
to support staff, with the same proven and reliable voice and data
communications they expect from the APX family of radios.”
The entire line of APX radios will be available for viewing at
the APCO conference, booth 308, from August 8-9 in Anaheim,
Calif.
