Definition

MOTOTRBO is the professional radio platform that powers Motorola Solutions’ commercial radio lineup, including the R2, R5, R7, and Ion. Built on the DMR (Digital Mobile Radio) open standard, MOTOTRBO radios deliver clearer audio, more efficient use of licensed frequencies, and integrated data features including GPS location tracking, text messaging, and work order management. MOTOTRBO systems operate in direct radio-to-radio mode, through repeater infrastructure, or across IP-connected sites for wide-area enterprise deployments. The platform is the technical foundation beneath every Motorola commercial radio SEI deploys.
