MotoTRBO

MOTOTRBO, pronounced MOTO-TURBO, is a Motorola digital radio format designed for business, industrial, and commercial use. Due to its versatility, power and advanced digital technology, it is at the forefront of bidirectional radio functionality.

Designed and compatible with the European 2-slot DMR, this digital communications product platform relies on Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) to accommodate two simultaneous users. A 12,5 kHz channel can facilitate two simultaneous calls, as well as individual voice and data paths equivalent to 6,25 kHz.

The new generation of walkie-talkies

MotoTRBO or digital walkie-talkies are considered the new generation of walkie-talkies and it offers more possibilities for operational critical communication. According to John Jaderholm, a member of the Motorola System Solutions Team, “it is designed for the communication needs of professional and commercial users and specifically for those in industry, manufacturing, hospitality, healthcare, municipal, transportation, construction and the education market”, just to name a few.

MOTOBRO has been very successful in recent years, giving users more control over their communications. It allows users to work within different talkgroups, utilize wide-area operation over IP connection, and provides conversational paths similar to trunking.

What is TDM (Time Division Multiple Access)

MOTOTRBO uses Time Division Multiple Access (TDM) to deliver remarkable voice quality to improve sound quality. In addition, it offers improved battery performance so that radios last longer.

Other benefits of MOTOTRBO include integrated data applications, increased capacity and longer battery life. As a result, companies can lower their operating costs and improve their bottom line. At the same time, employees can work more productively and maintain a more reliable and seamless form of communication. All of this also helps to improve business results.
