Our best to you from Motorola! For over three quarters of a century, Motorola has been the standard against which all other wireless communicators are measured. Other have come and gone, but the one that continues to innovate is Motorola. Motorola is quite simply, the best of the best, currently offering three different digital technologies employed in a new generation of digital communications equipment. In the USA, Motorola offers 2-way radios with FHSS, P25, and TDMA technology employed in the DTR, 1500, and XPR series. The XPR Series, more commonly known as MotoTRBO is very similar to European TETRA technology and is capable of increasing channel capacity, combining voice and data, even locating vehicles and people at the push of a button. P25, also known as APCO-25 is a public safety technology available as an upgrade to the 1500 Series radios. FHSS is the established standard for on-site communications and is the core technology employed in the DTR650 radio. The really good news is that this new technology talks farther, sounds better, and provides longer battery life in handheld radios. This is why we encourage you to consider going digital rather than expanding analog systems. We can show you how to inexpensively migrate from analog to digital - it's a lot easier than you may think! Additional information on digital systems is available at www.falcondirect.com/digital/differences. Additional information on our selected digital models - MotoTRBO, P25, and DTR On-Site radios is available by clicking on the applicable menu buttons at the top of this page. While we are firmly convinced of the benefits of going digital, we recognize that analog radios will be around at least through 2011 at which time, all radios must switch to 12.5 kHz channel spacing from the existing 25 kHz spacing. This will result in some performance degradation, but many users will still be able to fulfill their requirements with analog radios. Accordingly, we have provided information on selected analog radios that we feel are best in their respective classes. This information is available by clicking on the Analog Radios button above. Minitor V voice pagers are also analog devices while the LS355 and Advisor II pagers are hybrid digital devices. Additional information on Motorola pagers is available by clicking on the Pagers button above. The purchase of your radio is only part of the wireless user experience. Many users give little thought in making an initial purchase to things like batteries, audio accessories, and maintenance. A cheap battery can actually cost more than a good quality battery system like the Motorola Impress battery/charger system. You can learn more about this incredible advancement in battery technology by clicking on the Batteries button above. And if you think audio accessories like speaker-microphones are all the same, click on the Accessories button above. Lastly, we think it is important that you know all the facts about maintenance. There are many options - some very expensive but designed to provide emergency service for mission critical applications. Other plans, such as time and material agreements are suitable for some users, but we believe that our exclusive TimeShare maintenance program is an ideal solution for the majority of public safety, healthcare, and transportation users. You can learn more about our maintenance programs by clicking on the Maintenance button above. Thanks for visiting with us. We hope you find this web page to be informative and useful. | This page was last modified on March 28, 2008 | |
