Motorola (MSI) Boosts Emergency Services' Communication System
Read MoreHide Full Article
Motorola Solutions, Inc. (MSI - Free Report) recently announced that New South Wales State Emergency Services (NSW SES) has opted to deploy Motorola’s SmartConnect to enhance mission-critical radio communications infrastructure. Notably, earlier this year, Fire & Rescue New South Wales also selected SmartConnect to enhance its communication system.
The SmartConnect system is engineered for excellent coverage and ensuring connectivity beyond the boundaries of a network. Emergency personnel often have to work in geographically challenging locations where accessibility is limited and connectivity is weak. This is where SmartConnect comes into play as it automatically transitions voice channels to the optimal available communication network, whether on land mobile radio or broadband.
SmartConnect allows safety workers' radio systems to utilize in-vehicle LTE or satellite modems for seamless remote access without interruptions. Switchover of the voice communication from one network to another is smooth and fast and does not interrupt the audio and other radio functionalities.
NSW SES boasts an extensive pool of 10,000 volunteers dedicated to providing emergency services during challenging events such as road crash, storms, floods, and search and rescue operations. Moreover, 50 public safety agencies and about 50,000 first responders and emergency personnel use the NSW SES public safety network. With the increasing frequency of natural calamities, the public safety entity is actively working to enhance its preparedness by extending the reach and capacity of its radio communication infrastructure.
Time sensitivity, proper coordination and clarity of information are vital aspects of any emergency situation. SmartConnect will significantly enhance the resiliency of voice communication in hostile environments. This will facilitate a rapid exchange of information, lower the risk of misinterpretation of crucial details and augment the safety of emergency responders. The system's end-to-end encryption feature meets security requirements throughout the entire process, even during transitions among LMR, LTE, WIFI and satellite networks.
As a leading provider of mission-critical communication products and services worldwide, Motorola has ensured a steady revenue stream from this niche market. The communications equipment maker intends to boost its position in the public safety domain by entering into strategic alliances with other players in the ecosystem.
The stock has risen 25.1% over the past year compared with the industry’s growth of 9.3%.
